Chromatic convergence for the algebraic K-theory of the sphere spectrum

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that the map from K(S)K({\mathbb S}) to its chromatic completion is a connective cover and identify the fiber in KK-theoretic terms. We combine this with recent work of Land-Mathew-Meier-Tamme to prove a form of "Waldhausen's Chromatic Convergence Conjecture": we show that the map K(S(p))(p)→holimK(LnfS)(p)K({\mathbb S}_{(p)})_{(p)}\to \mathop{\rm holim} K(L^{f}_{n}{\mathbb S})_{(p)} is the inclusion of a wedge summand.
