Abstract: Let K(n) be the nth Morava K--theory at a prime p. This paper is a thorough study of questions like the following: to what extent does the K(n)--localization, or the K(n)--homology, of a spectrum X determine the K(n)--homology of its 0th space X_0? Our methods combine techniques from modern homotopical algebra with chromatic homotopy. In particular, we use the telescopic functors of Bousfield and the author (dependent on the Nilpotence Theorem of Devanitz, Hopkins, and Smith), as wel as Topological Andre--Quillen Homology and Goodwillie calculus in nonconnective settings.


Given a spectrum \(X\), let \(PX\) denote the free commutative algebra generated by \(X\). Given a natural number \(n\), let \(T(n)\) be the telescope of a \(v_n\)-self map of a finite spectrum of type \(n\). The author constructs a natural map \[ s_n(X): L_{T(n)}P(X) \to L_{T(n)}\Sigma^\infty(\Omega^\infty X)_+ \] of commutative algebras over the localized sphere spectum \(L_{T(n)}(S)\), where \(L_{T(n)}(-)\) denotes the Bousfield \(T(n)\)-localization and the subscript + denotes the disjoint union with the added point. This natural transformation \(s_n\) has the following universal property: any natural transformation from a functor invariant under \(T(n)\)-equivalences to \(L_{T(n)}\Sigma^\infty(\Omega^\infty-)_+\) factors canonically through \(s_n\). Also, the map \(s_n\) induces an isomorphism of \(L_{T(n)}\)-completions. Furthermore, for all spectra \(E\) with \(\langle T(n)\rangle\geq \langle E\rangle\), the induced map \(s_n(X): E_*(P(X))\to E_*(\Omega^\infty X)\) is monic for all \(X\). Some consequences for \(E=K(n)\) are considered. For the proofs, the author uses and develops Goodwillie calculus and a topological version of André-Quillen theory.
