Kristian Moi (MPI Bonn) Real Topological Hochschild Homology

In the 80's Bökstedt introduced THH(A), the Topological Hochschild homology of a ring A, and a trace map from algebraic K-theory of A to THH(A). This trace map, along with the circle action on THH, have since been used extensively to make calculations of algebraic K-theory. When the ring A has an anti-involution Hesselholt and Madsen have promoted the spectrum K(A) to a genuine Z/2-spectrum whose fixed points is the K-theory of Hermitian forms over A. They also introduced Real topological Hochschild homology THR(A), which is a genuine equivariant refinement of THH, and Dotto constructed an equivariant refinement of Bökstedt's trace map. I will report on recent joint work with Dotto, Patchkoria and Reeh on models for the spectrum THR(A) and calculations of its RO(Z/2)-graded homotopy groups.
