Sur l'homologie des groupes d'automorphismes des groupes libres à coefficients polynomiaux

Abstract

We study in this article stable homology of automorphism groups of free groups with coefficients twisted by a poynomial functor. We show that this homology is zero for a reduced covariant polynomial functor. For a reduced contravariant functor, we compute the first homology group, which is in general non zero. Our methods relie on the use of functor categories. ---On étudie dans cet article l'homologie stable des groupes d'automorphismes des groupes libres à coefficients tordus par un foncteur polynomial. On montre que cette homologie est nulle pour un foncteur polynomial covariant réduit. Dans le cas d'un foncteur polynomial réduit contravariant, on calcule le premier groupe d'homologie, qui n'est généralement pas nul. Nos méthodes reposent sur l'utilisation de catégories de foncteurs.

The fifth algebraic transfer in generic degrees and validation of a localized Kameko's conjecture

This paper develops our previous works concerning the classical Peterson hit problem for the polynomial algebra on five variables over the mod--2 Steenrod algebra $\mathscr A$ in a generic family of degrees, together with applications to the fifth Singer algebraic transfer and a localized variation of Kameko's conjecture. As a topological illustration of the usefulness of the Steenrod algebra, we prove that $\mathbb{C}P^4/\mathbb{C}P^2$ and $\mathbb{S}^6\vee \mathbb{S}^8$ are not homotopy equivalent by showing that their mod--2 cohomologies are not isomorphic as $\mathscr A$-modules, and we further determine the homotopy type of the quotient $\mathbb{C}P^n/\mathbb{C}P^{\,n-2}$ for all $n\ge 3$. For the generic degrees under consideration, we determine the relevant cohit spaces and describe the associated $GL(5,\mathbb F_2)$-module structure. As a consequence, the fifth algebraic transfer is an isomorphism in an explicit infinite family of internal degrees. These results were independently verified by implementations in \texttt{SageMath} and \texttt{OSCAR}. We also study a localized form of Kameko's conjecture concerning the dimensions of the indecomposables $\mathbb F_2\otimes_{\mathscr A}\mathbb F_2[x_1,\ldots,x_m]$ relative to parameter vectors, and prove that this conjecture holds for all $m\ge 1$ in certain degrees.

A rigidity theorem for $π_*$-étale $\mathbb E_k$-algebras

We prove a rigidity theorem for $π_*$-étale $\mathbb E_k$-algebras over an $\mathbb E_{k+1}$-ring spectrum: the category of $π_*$-étale extensions of an $\mathbb E_k$-algebra is identified with the ordinary category of étale Dirac algebras over its graded homotopy Dirac ring. The proof develops a relative Goerss-Hopkins type obstruction theory in synthetic spectra, including an $I$-complete version. As an application, the completed obstruction theory constructs the $I_n$-complete $\mathbb E_3$-$MU_{(p)}$-algebra realization of the Lubin-Tate theory, hence an $\mathbb E_4$-orientation $MU_{(p)}\to E_n$.

Automated proofs of unstable Adams differentials

We present a computer-based approach to computing differentials in the unstable Adams spectral sequence by systematically applying the unstable Leibniz rule and naturality with respect to maps in the EHP sequence. We record our results in tables of upper and lower bounds on the orders of 2-primary unstable homotopy groups of spheres through the unstable 50-stem. We provide examples of proofs for several differentials and give a guide to interpreting the associated unstable Adams charts and flow chart diagrams for differential proofs.
