Homotopy theory is an important sub-field of algebraic topology. It is mainly concerned with the properties and structures of spaces which are invariant under homotopy. Chief among these are the homotopy groups of spaces, specifically those of spheres. Homotopy theory includes a broad set of ideas and techniques, such as cohomology theories, spectra and stable homotopy theory, model categories, spectral sequences, and classifying spaces.

Integral cohomology (stable) operations
A possibly interesting analogue of the formula $H\mathbb{F}_{2*} H\mathbb{F}_2 = \otimes_{i\ge1} \mathbb{F}_2[\xi_i]$ is $H\mathbb{Z}_{(2)*} H\mathbb{Z}_{(2)} = \bigotimes^\mathbb{L}_{i\ge1} \mathbb{ …

Realizing $\mathcal{A}(2)//\mathcal{A}(1)$ by a finite spectrum
The $A(2)$-module structure on $A(2)//A(1)$ does not extend to an $A$-module structure. In particular, there is no spectrum $X$ with $H^*(X; F_2) = A(2)//A(1)$ as an $A(2)$-module.
Additively, $A(2) …

Differentials in the Adams Spectral Sequence for spheres at the prime p=2
With the aid of machine computations, you can readily determine the Adams differentials up to $t-s=30$ using the multiplicative structure, the relation between Steenrod operations in $\text{Ext}_A$ an …

How well-defined is $\bar\kappa$ in the stable $20$-stem?
The $2$-completed stable $20$-stem $\pi_{20}(S)_2$ is cyclic of order $8$.
Mimura and Toda (1963, Lemma 15.4) mr=157384 show the existence of a class $\bar\kappa_7 \in \pi_{27}(S^7)$ whose stable cla …

Derivations in the Steenrod algebra
The $D$ with $D(xy) = xD(y) + D(x)y$ are the primitives in the Steenrod algebra $A$, which are dual to the indecomposables $\xi_i$ in $A_* = F_2[\xi_i \mid i\ge1]$, so there is one such $D$ in each de …

Vietoris-Begle theorem for simplicial sets

Let $A = \Delta[1] \cup_{\partial\Delta[1]} \Delta[1]$ be the union of two copies of $\Delta[1]$ along their common boundary, let $g \colon A \to \D …

Group of units of a ring spectrum vs of its connective cover
For symmetric ring spectra $R$ there is also a definition of the graded group of units, $GL_1^J(R)$, which retains information about the negative homotopy groups of $R$. See Sagave-Schlichtkrull, "Dia …

What is the relation between the sphere spectrum and supersymmetry?
Like Schreiber does in his post, I would advertise the point of view developed by Sagave and Schlichtkrull in their Adv. Math 2012 paper, and used by us to study topological logarithmic geometry. Each …

Homotopy fixed points of complex conjugation on $BU(n)$
I think the answer is yes, after Bousfield-Kan $2$-completion. For $n=1$, $BO(1) \to BU(1)^{hC_2}$ is an equivalence, since $BO(1) \simeq K(\mathbb{Z}/2, 1)$, while $BU(1) \simeq K(\mathbb{Z}(1), 2)$ …

What is the topological Hochschild cohomology of $\mathbb{F}_p$?
Let me write $HH^S(B) = THH(B) = B \wedge_{B^e} B$ for topological Hochschild homology, and $HH_S(B) = F_{B^e}(B, B)$ for topological Hochschild cohomology, where $B^e = B \wedge_S B^{op}$. For $B$ c …
