Height four formal groups with quadratic complex multiplication

Abstract

We construct spectral sequences for computing the cohomology of automorphism groups of formal groups with complex multiplication by a $p$-adic number ring. We then compute the cohomology of the group of automorphisms of a height four formal group law which commute with complex multiplication by the ring of integers in the field ${\mathbb{Q}}_p(\sqrt{p})$, for primes $p>5$. This is a large subgroup of the height four strict Morava stabilizer group. The group cohomology of this group of automorphisms turns out to have cohomological dimension $8$ and total rank $80$. We then run the $K(4)$-local $E_4$-Adams spectral sequence to compute the homotopy groups of the homotopy fixed-point spectrum of this group's action on the Lubin-Tate/Morava spectrum $E_4$.
