Tate-valued Characteristic Classes II: Applications
Shachar Carmeli, Kiran Luecke
We present a construction that manufactures $\E_\infty$ orientations of Tate fixed-point objects together with useful formulas for these maps, and then give a number of application…
p-adic congruences in iterated derivatives of the Weierstrass elliptic function
Kiran Luecke, Eric Peterson
We use homotopy theoretic methods to prove congruence relations of number theoretic interest. Specifically, we use the theory of complex orientations to establis…
Tate-valued Characteristic Classes
Shachar Carmeli, Kiran Luecke
We define a projective variant of classical complex orientation theory. Using this, we construct a map of spectra which lifts the total Chern class, providing an alternative answer…
There aren't that many Morava E-theories
Kiran Luecke, Eric Peterson
Let be a perfect field of characteristic . Associated to any (1-dimensional, commutative) formal group law of finite height over there is a complex oriented cohomolo…
A short geometric derivation of the dual Steenrod algebra
Kiran Luecke
This two-page note gives a non-computational derivation of the dual Steenrod algebra as the automorphisms of the formal additive group. Instead of relying on computational tools li…
