Curtis–Madsen conjecture on the mod 2 Hurewicz homomorphism
Curtis–Madsen conjecture on the mod 2 Hurewicz homomorphism
Let denote the basepoint component of the stable homotopy space of spheres, and let be a stable map of positive degree. The Curtis–Madsen conjecture. The map is not in the kernel of the mod Hurewicz homomorphism if and only if has Hopf or Kervaire invariant one. This conjecture aims to characterize the positive-degree stable homotopy classes detected by the mod Hurewicz homomorphism; the source recalls it as a conjectural description and gives no resolution status.
