Abstract:The unstable Adams-Novikov spectral sequence for a space X is a sequence of groups {E r (X)} 9 r = 2, 3,..., which converge to the homotopy groups of X, and whose £ 2 " term depends on the complex cobordism groups of X. We investigate this spectral sequence when X is the infinite special unitary group SU, or one of the finite groups SU(n), or when X is an odd sphere S 2 " +1 .The reader is referred to [2] for the construction and properties of the unstable Adams-Novikov spectral sequence. For some purposes, it… Show more
“…For the UNSS, the existence of these exact sequences is proved similarly to the proof for SU(n) in [3], while for the periodic UNSS it follows since the exact sequences commute with the morphisms A of [4, pp. 50-51] which define the direct systems whose direct limit is v…”
In this paper we calculate the 2-primary v 1 -periodic homotopy groups of the symplectic groups Sp(n). The proof utilizes new methods of calculating the unstable Novikov spectral sequence. One corollary is that some homotopy group of Sp(n) contains an element of order 2 2n−1 .

“…The unstable Novikov spectral sequence. For a simply connected space X there is a spectral sequence (the unstable Novikov spectral sequence) which converges to the homotopy groups of X localized at p with the E2 term depending on the BP homology of X [5,2,3]. The elements described in §1 appear as unstable elements in filtration 2 of this spectral sequence.…”
Abstract.The unstable elements in filtration 2 of the unstable Novikov spectral sequence are computed. These elements are shown to survive to elements in the homotopy groups of spheres which are related to Im J. The computation is applied to determine the Hopf invariants of compositions of Im / and the exponent of certain sphere bundles over spheres.
