The Brown-Peterson homology and nilpotence of the infinite special orthogonal group.
For the Brown-Peterson spectrum BP at the prime 3, denotes Hazewinkel’s second polynomial generator of . Let denote the Bousfield localization functor with respect to . A typical example of type one finite spectra is the mod 3 Moore spectrum M. In this paper, we determine the homotopy groups for the 8 skeleton X of BP.
