Operations on Milnor-Witt K-theory (2308.01008v1)

Abstract: For all positive integers $n$ and all homotopy modules $M_$, we define certain operations $\underline{\operatorname{K}}^{\operatorname{MW}}_n \rightarrow M_$ and show that these generate the $M_(k)$-module of all (in general non-additive) operations $\underline{\operatorname{K}}^{\operatorname{MW}}_n \rightarrow M_$ in a suitable sense, if $M_*$ is $\mathbb{N}$-graded and has a ring structure. This also allows us to explicitly compute the abelian group $\operatorname{Op}(\underline{\operatorname{K}}^{\operatorname{MW}}_n,\underline{\operatorname{K}}^{\operatorname{MW}}_m)$ and all operations between related theories such as Milnor, Witt and Milnor-Witt K-theory.
