Generators for the mod 2 cohomology of the Steinberg summand of Thom spectra over \(B(\mathbb Z/2)^n\) (Q375201): Difference between revisions

Let \(n \geq 0\) be an integer, \(V_{n} \simeq (\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})^{n}\) be an elementary abelian \(2\)-group, \(P_{n}=H^{*}(BV_{n};\; \mathbb{F}_{2})\) and \(D_{n} = (P_{n})^{GL_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{2})}=\mathbb{F}_{2}[c_{1},...c_{n}]\) such that \(\mid c_{i} \mid = 2^{n} - 2^{n-i}, \; 1 \leq i \leq n\), the Dickson algebra. For \(k \in \mathbb{N}\), we denote by \(L_{n, k} = e_{n}(P_{n}c_{n}^{k})\) where \(e_{n}\) is the Steinberg idempotent of the general linear group \(GL_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{2})\). The aim of this paper is to describe a minimal generating set for \(L_{n, k}\) as a module over the mod. \(2\) Steenrod algebra.
