Kavli Affiliate: Yuji Tachikawa | First 5 Authors: Yuji Tachikawa, Mayuko Yamashita, , , | Summary: Inspired by consideration in heterotic string theory, we construct a morphism of spectra from $mathrm{KO}((q))/mathrm{TMF}$ to $Sigma^{-20}I_{mathbb{Z}} mathrm{TMF}$, which we show to be an isomorphism and to implement the Anderson self-duality of $mathrm{TMF}$. We will use this to factor […]
