On a minimal set of generators for the polynomial algebra of five variables as a module over the Steenrod algebra (Q514067): Difference between revisions

Let \(A\) be a the mod \(2\) Steenrod algebra and \(M\) be a left \(A\)-module. The hit problem for \(M\) is the determination of the quotient \(M/A^{+}M\) where \(A^{+}\) is the augmentation ideal of \(A\). This paper is concerned with the hit problem in degree \(4(2^{d}-1)\), \(d \geq 0\), for \(M=P_{k}=\widetilde{H}^{*}(B(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^{k};\; \mathbb{F}_{2})\) and \(k=5\).
