Conjectural computation of topological Hochschild homology of truncated Brown–Peterson spectra

Let B⟨n⟩B\langle n\rangle be an E3E_3 form of BP⟨n⟩BP\langle n\rangle. For 1≤m≤n1\leq m\leq n and n≥1n\geq 1, write P(−)P(-) for a polynomial algebra and E(−)E(-) for an exterior algebra. Define

Tmn=P(vm)⊗E(λ1,…,λn−m){as,ℓ(k‾):ℓ≢p−1(modp),s≥1}/≃,T_m^n=P(v_m)\otimes E(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_{n-m})\{a_{s,\ell}^{(\underline{k})}:\ell\not\equiv p-1\pmod p,s\geq 1\}/\simeq,

where k‾=(ϵ1,…,ϵm)\underline{k}=(\epsilon_1,\dots,\epsilon_m) with each ϵi∈{0,1}\epsilon_i\in\{0,1\}, and where ≃\simeq is generated by

vmrn(s,m)λ1ϵ1′⋯λn−mϵn−m′as,ℓ(k‾)∼0.v_m^{r_n(s,m)}\lambda_1^{\epsilon'_1}\cdots\lambda_{n-m}^{\epsilon'_{n-m}}a_{s,\ell}^{(\underline{k})}\sim 0.

Here

rn(s,m)=pn−m+s+pn−m+s−(m+1)+⋯+pn+j−m,r_n(s,m)=p^{n-m+s}+p^{n-m+s-(m+1)}+\cdots+p^{n+j-m},

with j∈{1,…,m+1}j\in\{1,\dots,m+1\} uniquely determined by s≡j(modm+1)s\equiv j\pmod{m+1}, and the classes λs\lambda_s are recursively defined by

λs:={λs1≤s≤n+1,lambdas−(m+1)μn+1ps−(n+2)(p−1)s>n+1.\lambda_s:=\begin{cases}\lambda_s&1\leq s\leq n+1,\\lambda_{s-(m+1)}\mu_{n+1}^{p^{s-(n+2)}(p-1)}&s>n+1.\end{cases}

The element as,ℓ(k‾)a_{s,\ell}^{(\underline{k})} projects to

λn−m+sλn−m+s+1ϵ1⋯λn+sϵmμn+1ℓps−1∈E∞∗,0.\lambda_{n-m+s}\lambda_{n-m+s+1}^{\epsilon_1}\cdots\lambda_{n+s}^{\epsilon_m}\mu_{n+1}^{\ell p^{s-1}}\in E_\infty^{*,0}.

Conjectural THH computation. There is an isomorphism

THH⁡∗(B⟨n⟩;k(m))≅P(vm)⊗E(λ1,…,λn−m)⊕Tmn.\operatorname{THH}_*(B\langle n\rangle;k(m))\cong P(v_m)\otimes E(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_{n-m})\oplus T_m^n.

This proposes a uniform description of the topological Hochschild homology of truncated Brown–Peterson spectra with coefficients in k(m)k(m), extending the calculations preceding it; the supplied text does not state a resolution or provide evidence that settles the conjecture.
