The one-step nilpotence conjecture for Palmieri's power operation
The one-step nilpotence conjecture for Palmieri's power operation
Let be a prime and let be the endomorphism of induced by the th-power map on the polynomial part of the dual Steenrod algebra. One-step nilpotence conjecture. For every , the element is nilpotent. This strengthens Palmieri's preceding conjecture by asserting that one may take ; the source says it is suggested by hand and computer calculations when , and does not state a resolution.
