Interestingly, the Picard group of KO, that is, the collection of invertible KO-module spectra is a cyclic group of order 8, the periodicity of KO. Central objects of study in chromatic and equivariant homotopy theory are the &#8220;higher K-theories&#8221; or Lubin-Tate spectra. They come equipped with actions of finite groups, giving rise to periodic spectra commonly known as the &#8220;higher real K-theories&#8221;. An open problem is to understand the Picard groups of these higher real K-theories. When is it cyclic? What is its structure? Equivariant techniques give insight on this problem. I will present this perspective and some results about these Picard groups in this talk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recording of the talk is available here.
