We introduce a new approach to computing topological cyclic homology by means of a descent spectral sequence. We carry out the computation for a p-adic local field with Fp-coefficients, including the case p=2 which was only covered by motivic methods except in the totally unramified case.
We give a new proof of a result of Lazarev, that the dual of the circle $S^1_+$ in the category of spectra is equivalent to a strictly square-zero extension as an associative ring spectrum. As an application, we calculate the topological cyclic homology of $DS^1$ and rule out a Koszul-dual reformulation of the Novikov conjecture.
We study the homology of free loop spaces via techniques arising from the theory of topological coHochschild homology (coTHH). Topological coHochschild homology is a topological analogue of the classical theory of coHochschild homology for coalgebras. We produce new spectrum-level structure on coTHH of suspension spectra as well as new algebraic structure in the coBokstedt spectral sequence for computing coTHH. These new techniques allow us to compute the homology of free loop spaces in several new cases, extending known calculations.
We describe a construction of the cyclotomic structure on topological Hochschild homology ($THH$) of a ring spectrum using the Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel multiplicative norm. Our analysis takes place entirely in the category of equivariant orthogonal spectra, avoiding use of the Bokstedt coherence machinery. We are able to defi
In this paper, we build up a scaled homology theory, $lc$-homology, for metric spaces such that every metric space can be visually regarded as locally contractible with this newly-built homology. We check that $lc$-homology satisfies all Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms except exactness axiom whereas its corresponding $lc$-cohomology satisfies all axioms for cohomology. This homology can relax the smooth manifold restrictions on the compact metric space such that the entropy conjecture will hold for the first $lc$-homology group.
We calculate the integral homotopy groups of THH(l) at any prime and of THH(ko) at p=2, where l is the Adams summand of the connective complex p-local K-theory spectrum and ko is the connective real K-theory spectrum.
