The first line of the Bockstein spectral sequence on a monochromatic spectrum at an odd prime
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 January 2016
Abstract
The chromatic spectral sequence was introduced by Miller, Ravenel, and Wilson to compute the E2-term of the Adams-Novikov spectral sequence for computing the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The E1-term of the spectral sequence is an Ext group of BP*BP-comodules. There is a sequence of Ext groups for nonnegative integers n with and there are Bockstein spectral sequences computing a module (n – s) from So far, a small number of the E1-terms are determined. Here, we determine the for p > 2 and n > 3 by computing the Bockstein spectral sequence with E1-term for s = 1, 2. As an application, we study the nontriviality of the action of α1 and β1 in the homotopy groups of the second Smith-Toda spectrum V(2).
