The Local Realization Conjecture for finite-degree Steenrod modules

About 18 years old · traced to

Let MM be an A\mathcal A-module concentrated in finitely many degrees, where A\mathcal A is the mod 2 Steenrod algebra. Local Realization Conjecture. For all sufficiently large integers kk, there is no space or spectrum XX such that

H∗(X;Z/2)≃M⊗Φ(k,k+1).H^*(X;\mathbb Z/2)\simeq M\otimes\Phi(k,k+1).

This is described as a stronger qualitative form of the finite-generation conjecture and as a restatement of the Local Realization Conjecture from the author's earlier work. The source provides no resolution.
