SPECTRA

STABLE SPECTRA

The type models spectra in stable homotopy theory, sequences of types with structure maps , used in K-theory, cohomology, and quantum field theory. Spectra capture stable invariants and support operations like suspension and desuspension for defining shifted spectra such as .

In the cohesive type system, is a parameterless type in , not a universe, supporting operations like stabilization , suspension , desuspension , smash product , wedge sums , homomorphisms , and qubits . The category is stable and symmetric monoidal.

Formation

(-Formation). The type is a base type in , representing all spectra, stable under suspension and desuspension.

def Sp : U_{(0,0)}

Introduction

(-Introduction). Terms of type are introduced via a base constructor (sphere spectrum), or operations like stabilization (), suspension (), desuspension (), smash product (), wedge sums (), homomorphisms (), or qubits (), forming stable homotopy classes.

Elimination

(-Elimination). The eliminator maps terms to properties in , analyzing stable homotopy structure, including suspension and desuspension invariants.
