This question is about Picard spectra for the symmetric monoidal $\infty$-category of spectra. We say that a spectrum $X$ is invertible if there is another spectrum $Y$ such that $X\...

Obstructions to Picard-graded groups of maps
Suppose $(C,\odot,\Bbb I)$ is an additive category with a compatible symmetric monoidal structure and $Pic(C)$ is the group of isomorphism classes of objects which have an inverse under $\odot$. For $\...
