The Morava K-theory of BO(q) and MO(q)

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We give an easy proof that the Morava K-theories for BO(q) and MO(q) are in even degrees. Although this is a known result, it had followed from a difficult proof that BP^*(BO(q)) was Landweber flat. Landweber flatness follows from the even Morava K-theory. We go further and compute an explicit description of K(n)_*(BO(q)) and K(n)_*(MO(q)) and reconcile it with the purely algebraic construct from Landweber flatness.
