We construct splittings of some completions of the Z/(p)-Tate cohomology of
E(n) and some related spectra. In particular, we split (a completion of) tE(n)
as a (completion of) a wedge of E(n-1)'s as a spectrum, where t is shorthand
for the fixed points of the Z/(p)-Tate cohomology spectrum (ie Mahowald's
inverse limit of P_{-k} smash SE(n)). We also give a multiplicative splitting
of tE(n) after a suitable base extension.Comment: 30 pages. Published copy, also available at
