Abstract: Twisted topological Hochschild homology of

C_{n}

-equivariant spectra was introduced by Angeltveit, Blumberg, Gerhardt, Hill, Lawson, and Mandell, building on the work of Hill, Hopkins, and Ravenel on norms in equivariant homotopy theory. In this paper we introduce tools for computing twisted THH, which we apply to computations for Thom spectra, Eilenberg-MacLane spectra, and the real bordism spectrum

M U_{m a t h b b R}

. In particular, we construct an equivariant version of the B"okstedt spectral sequence, the formulation of which requires further development of the Hochschild homology of Green functors, first introduced by Blumberg, Gerhardt, Hill, and Lawson.

Review text

The Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel norm \(N_{e}^{S^1}(R)\) of a structured ring spectrum \(R\) is one possible model for the topological Hochschild homology of \(R\). This viewpoint was used by \textit{V. Angeltveit} et al. [Doc. Math. 23, 2101--2163 (2018; Zbl 1417.55015)] in their construction of a cyclotomic structure on \(\mathrm{THH}(R)\). Generalizing this description of \(\mathrm{THH}\), they defined the \textit{twisted} topological Hochschild homology \(\mathrm{THH}_{C_n}(R)\) of a \(C_n\)-ring spectrum \(R\) to be the relative norm \(N_{C_n}^{S^1}(R)\). The name \textit{twisted} comes from the observation that this norm can be built from a twisted version of the cyclic bar construction. In the paper under review, the authors carry out first computations of twisted \(\mathrm{THH}\) in examples of interest. One main tool that they develop is an equivariant version of the Bökstedt spectral sequence. Under suitable assumptions, it computes equivariant \(E\)-homology groups of twisted \(\mathrm{THH}\)-spectra from equivariant Hochschild homology groups. This is for example applied to get information about the \(C_2\)-relative \(\mathrm{THH}\) of the real bordism spectrum \(\mathrm{MU}_{\mathbb R}\). Another approach to compute twisted \(\mathrm{THH}\) uses Thom spectra. \textit{M. Behrens} and \textit{D. Wilson} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 146, No. 11, 5003--5012 (2018; Zbl 1409.55010)] and \textit{J. Hahn} and \textit{D. Wilson} [Geom. Topol. 24, No. 6, 2709--2748 (2020; Zbl 1459.55008)] identified equivariant Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectra on \(\underline{\mathbb F}_2\) and \(\underline{\mathbb Z}_{(2)}\) as Thom spectra. Using an equivariant version of a theorem by \textit{A. J. Blumberg} et al. [ibid. 14, No. 2, 1165--1242 (2010; Zbl 1219.19006)], the authors describe the twisted \(\mathrm{THH}\) of these Thom-spectra. This leads to an equivariant identification of the \(C_2\)-spectra underlying \(\mathrm{THH}_{C_2}(H\underline{\mathbb F}{}_2)\) and \(\mathrm{THH}_{C_2}(H\underline{\mathbb Z}{}_{(2)})\).
