Q: What is the symmetric monoidal functor from Clifford algebras to invertible K-module spectra?

Qiaochu YuanThere ought to be a symmetric monoidal functor from the symmetric monoidal $2$-groupoid whose objects are Morita-invertible real superalgebras (precisely the Clifford algebras), morphisms are invertible superbimodules, and $2$-morphisms are invertible superbimodule homomorphisms to the symmetric ...

Q: Crafting Suspension Spectra

AlfredThere is a theorem by Hopkins and Smith which states that for every $n > 0$ there is an ideal $I_n = (v_0^{k_0}, \dots, v_n^{k_n})$ such that there exist a spectrum $X_n$ with the following homology: $$ BP_*(X_n)=BP_*/I_n.$$ I was wondering if it was possible to have a similar but more detailed ...
