Title: The Slice Tower of Suspensions of HZ
Abstract: The slice filtration is a filtration of equivariant spectra
developed by Hill, Hopkins, and Ravenel in their solution to the Kervaire
invariant one problem. I will begin by recalling the definition of the
slice filtration along with some of its basic properties. Then I will
discuss some computational methods for determining slice towers. Finally,
I will present the general form of the slice tower for a suspension of the
Eilenberg-MacLane Spectrum associated to the constant Mackey functor for a
cyclic p-group and highlight the patterns that arise by showing a few key
examples.
