Periodicity and finite complexity in higher real $K$-theories

Abstract

In this paper, we establish periodicity results for higher real $K$-theories at all heights and for all finite subgroups of the Morava stabilizer group at the prime 2. We further analyze the $RO(G)$-periodicity lattice of the height-$h$ Lubin--Tate theory, proving new $RO(G)$-graded periodicities and explicit finiteness results for the $RO(G)$-graded homotopy groups of $E_h$. Together, these results provide a foundation for both the structural and computational study of higher real $K$-theories.
