It seems that from this webpage, the spin cobordism is equivalent to KO theory in low dimension. If we denote the $p$-torsion part (mean $\mathbb{Z}_{p^n}$ for some $n$) $$\Omega_d(BG)_p.$$ ...

In Freed-Hopkins's paper, the group $E(d)$ is defined to be the subgroup of $O(d)\times\mathbb{Z}_4$ consisting of the pairs $(A,j)$ such that $\det A=j^2$, where $\mathbb{Z}_4=\{\pm1,\pm\sqrt{-1}\}$ ...

The homotopy groups of the sphere spectrum are the stable homotopy groups of spheres. However, could you help me to appreciate the mathematical meanings of the following: What is the significance of ...

Let us consider a short exact sequence: $$ 1\to N\to G\to Q \to 1, $$ where $N$, $Q$, and $G$ can be continuous Lie groups in general (or finite groups). Suppose I have the data and the computations ...
