    The P21P_2^1 Margolis homology of connective topological modular forms

    Full text link
    The element P21P_2^1 of the mod 2 Steenrod algebra has the property (P21)2=0(P_2^1)^2=0. This property allows one to view P21P_2^1 as a differential on H∗(X,F2)H_*(X, \mathbb{F}_2) for any spectrum XX. Homology with respect to this differential, M(X,P21)\mathcal{M}(X, P_2^1), is called the P21P_2^1 Margolis homology of XX. In this paper we give a complete calculation of the P21P_2^1 Margolis homology of the 2-local spectrum of topological modular forms tmftmf and identify its F2\mathbb{F}_2 basis via an iterated algorithm. We apply the same techniques to calculate P21P_2^1 Margolis homology for any smash power of tmftmf

    The topological modular forms of RP2\mathbb{R}P^2 and RP2∧CP2\mathbb{R}P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C}P^2

    In this paper, we study the elliptic spectral sequence computing tmf∗(RP2)tmf_*(\mathbb{R} P^2) and tmf∗(RP2∧CP2)tmf_* (\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2). Specifically, we compute all differentials and resolve exotic extensions by 2, η\eta, and ν\nu. For tmf∗(RP2∧CP2)tmf_* (\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2), we also compute the effect of the v1v_1-self maps of RP2∧CP2\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2 on tmftmf-homology

    Generation of spin-triplet Cooper pairs via a canted antiferromagnet

    Full text link
    Spinful triplet Cooper pairs can be generated from their singlet counterparts available in a conventional superconductor (S) using two or more noncollinear magnetic moments, typically contributed by different magnets in a multilayered heterostructure. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that an S interfaced with a canted antiferromagnet (AF) harbors spinful triplet Cooper pairs capitalizing on the intrinsic noncollinearity between the two AF sublattice magnetizations. As the AF canting can be controlled by an applied field, our work proposes a simple bilayer structure that admits controllable generation of spin-triplet Cooper pairs. Employing the Bogoliubov-de Gennes framework, we delineate the spatial dependence of the spin-triplet correlations. We further evaluate the superconducting critical temperature as a function of the AF canting, which provides one experimental observable associated with the emergence of these triplet correlations.Comment: 24 pages, 7 figure
