The differential $\rm d_4(h_6^3)$ in the Adams spectral sequence for spheres
We show that there is a non-trivial differential $d_4(h_6^3) =h_0^3g_4$ in the mod 2 Adams spectral sequence for spheres. This together with the results in \cite{barratt_differentials_1970,lin_differential_1998,kan_differential_2001} completely settle the differentials of $h_i^3$ for $i\ge4$. (The differentials of $h_i^3$ for $i=0,1,2,3$ are well-known.) Our proof uses the Kevaire invariant elements $θ_i \inπ_{2^{i+1}-2}^S$ for $i=4,5$ with the properties $2θ_4 =0$, $2θ_5 =0$.
