The $E_3$ page of the Adams spectral sequence

In the early 2000's, Baues computed the secondary Steenrod algebra, the algebra of all secondary cohomology operations. Together with Jibladze, they showed that this gives an algorithm that computes all Adams $d_2$ differentials for the sphere. The goal of this paper is to reinterpret their results in the language of synthetic spectra in order to achieve stronger computational results. Using this, we obtain an algorithm that computes hidden extensions on the $E_3$ page that jump by one filtration, in addition to the $d_2$ differentials of Baues--Jibladze. We then implement and run this algorithm for the sphere up to the 140th stem. Combined with a generalized version of the Leibniz rule, these hidden extensions allow us to compute many longer differentials with ease. In particular, we resolve all remaining unknown $d_2$, $d_3$, $d_4$ and $d_5$ differentials of the sphere up to the 95th stem.

$C_2$-equivariant topological modular forms

We compute the homotopy groups of the $C_2$ fixed points of equivariant topological modular forms at the prime $2$ using the descent spectral sequence. We then show that as a $\mathrm{TMF}$-module, it is isomorphic to the tensor product of $\mathrm{TMF}$ with an explicit finite cell complex.
