The following is a part of a paper that I need to understand [![enter image description here][1]][1] I totally do not know the argument. Could you explain? Thanks. Let $\Sigma_n$ be the $n$-th symmetric group and $\Sigma_\infty$ be the direct limit. Let $\Omega^nS^n$ be the $n$-iterated loop space on the $n$-sphere and $\Omega_k^nS^n$ be the subset of $\Omega^nS^n$ consisting of maps $S^n\to S^n$ of degree $k$. Let $\Omega^\infty_kS^\infty$ be the direct limit of $\Omega^n_kS^n$ with respect to $n$. I want to find references or explanations of the following items: (1). $\Omega^\infty_0S^\infty$ is the Quillen plus construction on $B\Sigma_\infty$. For any prime $p$, (2). there is a "*Frobenius map*": $\Sigma_k\to \Sigma_{{k}\choose{p}}\int \Sigma_p$ (What does the integral mean?) which induces a "*Kahn-Priddy map*" $H_p:\Omega^\infty_0S^\infty\to \Omega^\infty \Sigma^\infty B\Sigma_p$. (3). the Quillen plus construction gives a map $i: B\Sigma_p\to \Omega^\infty_0S^\infty$. This map induces a map $\theta_p: \Omega^\infty\Sigma^\infty B\Sigma_p\to \Omega_0^\infty S^\infty$. (4). The composition $\theta_p H_p:\Omega_0^\infty S^\infty\to \Omega_0^\infty S^\infty$ is a "*multiplicative $p$-local equivalence*" (what means "*multiplicative $p$-local equivalence*"?). Could you give a help for references or explanations? What do the above items mean? [1]: https://i.sstatic.net/q3JZu.jpg
