Higher Conjugation in Commutative Hopf Algebras

Martin Crossley (University of Wales Swansea)

M.D.Crossley@swansea.ac.uk

I will discuss work with Sarah Whitehouse and Francis Clarke studying the conjugation in the dual Steenrod algebra, and various generalizations of this which arise from Sarah's work with Alan Robinson on commutativity in ring spectra.
