Abstract:

Inspired by Mark Mahowald’s work on $bo$-resolutions, Mark Behrens has initiated a program to use the Adams spectral sequence based on the connective spectrum of topological modular forms. In order to pursue this, Behrens, Ormsby, Stapleton, and Stojanoska developed techniques to compute the cooperations algebra of tmf. A closely related spectrum to tmf is the spectrum tmf_1(3), which is a form of BP<2>. I will describe techniques to calculate the BP<2>-cooperations.
