项目摘要

Spheres are simple yet important objects of study in topology. One of the central questions of algebraic topology is the classification of all possible mappings of a high-dimensional sphere onto a sphere of lower dimension. It turns out that this classification of mappings of spheres has wide-ranging repercussions in geometry and in physics. Recently, this question has received attention in other contexts: when the spheres are considered in the realm of algebraic geometry, or when the spheres have specified symmetries which must be preserved by the mappings in question. More recently, greater understanding of how these various contexts impact each other has emerged. The research supported by this award will employ these newfound connections to expand the range in which these questions are understood, especially in the setting of spheres with a twofold symmetry. This project provides and funds research training for graduate students.The principal investigator will continue joint work with Dan Isaksen on computations of the motivic and C2-equivariant stable homotopy groups of spheres. The R-motivic computations are more approachable, and these determine a portion of the C2-equivariant stable homotopy groups. The main tools will be the rho-Bockstein spectral sequence and the Adams spectral sequence. Various techniques will be employed to run these spectral sequences, including the use of Massey products. The PI and collaborators will also investigate v1-periodicity in the R-motivic and C2-equivariant settings, producing finite complexes that support periodicity operators. This will lead to periodic families of elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres in these contexts. In another direction, another collaboration will analyze additive power operations for equivariant cohomology theories.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

球体是拓扑学中简单但重要的研究对象。代数拓扑的核心问题之一是对高维球体到低维球体的所有可能映射进行分类。事实证明，球体映射的这种分类在几何和物理学中具有广泛的影响。最近，这个问题在其他上下文中受到了关注：当在代数几何领域中考虑球体时，或者当球体具有指定的对称性时，必须通过所讨论的映射来保留该对称性。最近，人们对这些不同背景如何相互影响有了更深入的了解。该奖项支持的研究将利用这些新发现的联系来扩大这些问题的理解范围，特别是在具有双重对称性的球体设置中。该项目为研究生提供并资助研究培训。首席研究员将继续与 Dan Isaksen 合作计算球体的动机群和 C2 等变稳定同伦群。 R 动机计算更容易实现，并且这些计算确定了 C2 等变稳定同伦群的一部分。主要工具是 rho-Bockstein 谱序列和 Adams 谱序列。将采用各种技术来运行这些光谱序列，包括使用梅西产品。 PI 和合作者还将研究 R 动机和 C2 等变设置中的 v1 周期性，生成支持周期性算子的有限复数。这将导致在这些情况下球体的稳定同伦群中出现周期性元素族。在另一个方向上，另一项合作将分析等变上同调理论的加性幂运算。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
