On Real-oriented Johnson-Wilson cohomology

Po Hu


Abstract. Answering a question of W. S. Wilson, I introduce a Z/2-equivariant Atiyah-Real analogue of Johnson-Wilson cohomology theory BP, whose coefficient ring is the =< n-chromatic part of Landweber's Real cobordism ring.

Keywords. Johnson-Wilson cohomology, Real-orientation, Landweber cobordism
