On the May Spectral Sequence at the prime 2

Abstract: We make a conjecture about the whole $E_2$ page of the May spectral sequence in terms of generators and relations and we prove it in a subalgebra which covers a large range of dimensions. We show that the $E_2$ page plays a universal role in the study of Massey products in commutative DGAs. We conjecture that the $E_2$ page is nilpotent free and also prove it in this subalgebra. We compute all the $d_2$ differentials of the generators in the conjecture and construct maps of spectral sequences which allow us to explore Adams vanishing line theorem to compute differentials in the May spectral sequence.
