A note about the isotropy groups of 2-plane bundles over closed surfaces.
This paper is devoted to an exposition of cohomology theories on categories of spaces where the cohomology theories satisfy the type of axiom system considered in [1, 12, 16, 17, 18]. The categories considered are Ccomp, the category of all compact Haudorff spaces and continuous functions between them, and Cloc comp, the category of all locally compact Hausdorff spaces and proper continuous functions between them. The fundamental uniqueness theorem for cohomology theories on a finite dimensional...
Let K*(A;Z/ln) denote the mod-ln algebraic K-theory of a Z[1/l]-algebra A. Snaith ([14], [15], [16]) has studied Bott-periodic algebraic theory Ki(A;Z/ln)[1/βn], a localized version of K*(A;Z/ln) obtained by inverting a Bott element βn. For l an odd prime, Snaith has given a description of K*(A;Z/ln)[1/βn] using Adams maps between Moore spectra. These constructions are interesting, in particular for their connections with Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture [16].In this paper we obtain a description...
