The conjecture on algebra structures of K(1) at p=2
The conjecture on algebra structures of K(1) at p=2
For , let be the spectrum considered as an algebra over the completed connective complex -theory spectrum , and let an opposite algebra structure mean the structure obtained by reversing multiplication. Algebra-structure conjecture. There are precisely two structures of an -algebra on , and these are opposite to each other. Moreover, the spectrum possesses a unique structure of an -algebra. The preceding discussion shows that the two -algebra structures, if they exist, are not isomorphic as -algebras, while is nevertheless isomorphic to its opposite as a ring spectrum; the source gives no resolution of the conjecture.
