THE FIRST LINE OF THE BOCKSTEIN SPECTRAL SEQUENCE ON A MONOCHROMATIC SPECTRUM AT AN ODD PRIME

Abstract

The chromatic spectral sequence is introduced in (8) to compute the E2-term of the Adams-Novikov spectral sequence for computing the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The E1-term E s,t (k) of the spectral sequence is an Ext group of BP∗BP-comodules. There are a sequence of Ext groups E s,t (n s) for non-negative integers n with E s,t 1 (0) = E
