Some documents:
Here are some other documents or fragments of documents.
Some are of an expository
nature
- Orientations and Eisenstein Series
A project in the works to orient TAF spectra, with Mike Hopkins
and Niko Naumann. The work rests on the construction of an Eisenstein
measure on U(1,n-1) with certain properties. I wrote two status
reports
below.

- Derived Fourier Analysis
The idea was
to express an enriched functor from an enriched symmetric monoidal category
to spectra as
an end or coend of monoidal functors. This coincides with Goodwillie/Weiss
calculus when the category in question is spaces/vector spaces. Here's an
old document that explains the idea. At the time I
could not make the mathematics precise, but Sam Isaacson has developed the
necessary general theory to proceed.
- Topological automorphic forms: a fantasy
This is an old document attempting to understand topological automorphic
forms for Shimura varietes associated to quaternion algebras.
A complete construction of such spectra, as well as some computation of
their homotopy groups, is now available in a preprint of Mike Hill and Tyler
Lawson: "Automorphic forms and cohomology theories on Shimura curves of
small discriminant".

- Shimura varieties of type U(1,n-1) in characteristic 0
An expository note concerning a certain class of Shimura varieties that
Tyler Lawson and I are studying. Attempts are made to understand what an
automorphic form is.

- Orthogonal calculus vs homotopy calculus
Greg Arone and Tom Goodwillie told me how to mix calculi. This note tries
to understand it in terms of q-analogs of iterated difference constructions.

- Adams and Wirthmuller isomorphisms for compact p-adic analytic
groups
An attempt of mine to understand how analogs of certain duality isomorphisms
in equivariant homotopy theory carry over formally to derived categories of
G-modules, for G a p-adic analytic group.

- Calculations of the homotopy of Q(2)
These are some documents which contain partial computations of
the 3-primary homotopy of Q(2). The idea is to understand Shimomura's
3-primary computations.

- Fourier Analysis for Engineers
My mother asked me to type up a summary of Fourier analysis that she could
learn from.

- Cooperations and representations
Hopf algebras and Hopf algebroids give group schemes and groupoid schemes,
respectively, and their comodules correspond to algebraic representations.
The cooperation algebras associated to generalized
homology theories often give rise to
Hopf algebroids, and the comodules associated to the generalized homology of
certain spaces give rise to natural representations.
