Addresses issues with odd primary infinite families in stable homotopy theory.
Reflection groups and invariant theory
This paper develops a new invariant of a CW-complex called the m-structure and uses it to perform homotopy-theoretic computations. The m-structure of a space encapsulates the coproduct structure, as well as higher-coproduct structures that determine Steenrod-operations. Given an…
Unstable coalgebras over the Steenrod algebra form a natural target category for singular homology with prime field coefficients. The realization problem asks whether an unstable coalgebra is isomorphic to the homology of a topological space. We study the moduli space of such re…
For each odd prime 'p' a simply connected finite H-space is constructed with p-torsion in homology. Implications of the examples for the theory of finite H-spaces are examined. Applications of the techniques used for the main results are given to mod p decomposition problems. An…
In this monograph, the theory of spectral sequence constructors is developed, the four main constructions of the spectral sequence of a Hopf algebra extension are discussed and compared, and a uniqueness theorem for the spectral sequence is proved. A similar study is made of the…
