How to construct $X \oplus \Sigma X$ from $X \oplus \Sigma X \oplus \Sigma X \oplus \Sigma^2 X$ without splitting an idempotent?
Let $Z$ be an object in a stable (or triangulated/whatever) category $\mathcal C$. I believe it follows from Thomason's theorem (see The classification of triangulated subcategories) that the ...

Are telescopes Noetherian?
Let $p$ be a prime and $h \in \mathbb N$ a height.
Question 1: Does there exist a compact $T(h)$-local spectrum $A$ with a unital multiplication making $\pi_\ast A$ a Noetherian ring?
A priori it's ...

Spanier-Whitehead dual of space of natural transformations
Let $F, G: \mathcal{J} \to \mathsf{Sp}$ be continuous functors between $\sf{Sp}$-enriched categories, where $\sf{Sp}$ denotes any of the point-set models for spectra (i.e., orthogonal spectra).

When is a stable $\infty$-category the stabilization of an $\infty$-topos?
Let $\mathcal X$ be a presentable $\infty$-category. Then the stabilization $Stab(\mathcal X)$ of $\mathcal X$ is the universal presentable stable category on $\mathcal X$.
Conversely, if $\mathcal A$ ...

Which positive flat stable model structures on (flavors of) spectra have the property that cofibrant operad-algebras forget to cofibrant spectra?
Let $M$ be a monoidal model category and $O$ an operad valued in $M$, and the category of $O$-algebras inherits a model structure from $M$ where a map $f$ is a weak equivalence (resp. fibration) if ...

Is there a model structure for S-modules such that cofibrant operad-algebras forget to cofibrant S-modules?
In 1997, Elmendorf, Kriz, Mandell, and May wrote a book Rings, Modules, and Algebras in Stable Homotopy Theory in which they introduced the category of $S$-modules as a model for the stable homotopy ...

What happened to the last work Gaunce Lewis was doing when he died?
In 2006, Gaunce Lewis died at the age of 56. He'd done important work setting up equivariant stable homotopy theory, and I think it's fair to say his work was far ahead of its time. In recent years, ...

"Phantom" non-equivalences of spectra?
I would like an example of the following situation, or a proof that no such example exists.
$\textbf{Situation}$: Two connective (EDIT: I'm fine with dropping this condition) spectra $X$ and $Y$ such ...

$BP$-Adams Novikov Spectral Sequence or Homotopy groups of $S/3$
What is know about the homotopy groups of $S/3$ where $S/3 = \mathrm{hocofib}(S \xrightarrow{\cdot 3} S)$? Otherwise, is there some reference I can consult for the $BP$-ANSS for $S/3$?

Is there a Dold-Kan theorem for circle actions?
There are several interesting equivalences of "Dold-Kan type" in the setting of stable $\infty$-categories. Namely, let $\mathcal C$ be a stable $\infty$-category. Then the following 3 ...

Thom spectra, tmf, and Weierstrass curve Hopf Algebroid
Let $X(4)$ be the Thom spectrum associated to $\Omega SU(4) \to \Omega SU \simeq BU$. Since $X(4)$ is a homotopy commutative ring spectrum, for any spectrum Y we can construct a resolution

$E$-(co)homology of $BU(n)$ (Reference request)
I am currently reading Lurie's notes on Chromatic Homotopy Theory (252x) and in Lecture 4 (https://www.math.ias.edu/~lurie/252xnotes/Lecture4.pdf), he skims through the calculation of $E^{\ast}(BU(n))$...
