Unstable splittings related to Brown-Peterson cohomology

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 196))

Abstract

We give a new and relatively easy proof of the splitting theorem of the second author for the spaces in the Omega spectrum for BP. We then give the first published proofs of our similar theorems for the spectra P(n).
