Following an identification at the level of $E_2$-algebras of $\\text{THH}(\\mathbb{F}_p)$ with $\\mathbb{F}_p[\\Omega S^3]$, the group ring of the $E_1$-group $\\Omega S^3$ over $\\mathbb{F}_p$, we use trace methods to compute its algebraic $K$-theory. We also show that as an $E_2$ $H\\mathbb{F}_p$-ring, $\\text{THH}(\\mathbb{F}_p)$ is uniquely determined by its homotopy groups. These results hold in fact for $\\text{THH}(k)$, where $k$ is any perfect field of characteristic $p$. Along the way we expand on some of the methods used by Hesselholt-Madsen and later by Speirs to develop certain tools to study the THH of graded ring spectra and the algebraic $K$-theory of formal DGAs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-09-12T17:04:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P99", "19D99" ], "keywords": [ "formal dgas", "trace methods", "homotopy groups", "results hold", "perfect field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
