TL;DR
This work computes the $E_2^{hC_6}$-homology of $\mathbb{RP}^2$ and $\mathbb{RP}^2\wedge\mathbb{C}P^2$ at the prime $2$ by exploiting the Morava $E$-theory height-2 fixed-point framework. The authors reduce the problem to the HFPSS for $E_2^{hC_6}\wedge V(0)$ and $E_2^{hC_6}\wedge Y$, obtained from $E^{hC_2}$ via $C_3$-fixed points and cofiber/sequences, and then determine the differentials $d_3$ and $d_7$ along with extension data. They produce explicit $E_ abla$-pages with 16- and 48-periodic structures, identify key generators such as $x$, $v_1$, $v_2$, $y$, and $\overline{\kappa}$, and show how the cofiber relations control the homotopy groups of the target spectra. The results enhance chromatic understanding of $E_2$-local fixed-point spectra at height $2$ and provide concrete computations for the homology of projective spaces and their smash with complex projective space, informing broader analyses of $L_{K(n)}\mathbb{S}$ via the Devinatz–Hopkins framework.
Abstract
Let $\operatorname{E}_2$ be the Morava E-theory of height 2 at the prime 2. In this paper, we compute the homotopy groups of $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2$ and $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C}P^2$ using the homotopy fixed point spectral sequences.
