Will give a Topology Seminar entitled:
Equivariant Landweber Exactness
Abstract: Landweber exact spectra enjoy many nice properties, such as the nonexistence of phantom maps, and are ubiquitous throughout chromatic homotopy theory; examples include MU, KU, BP, Lubin-Tate theories, and rational cohomology. In this talk, I'll propose a definition for A-equivariant Landweber exact spectra which is satisfied by MU_A, KU_A, and BP_A. Additionally, we will see that this definition is useful by using it to disprove a conjecture of May and observing that A-equivariant Landweber exact spectra have no nontrivial phantom maps.
