The localization of orthogonal calculus with respect to homology

Research output: Working paperPreprintAcademic

Abstract

For a set of maps of based spaces $S$ we construct a version of Weiss' orthogonal calculus which only depends on the $S$-local homotopy type of the functor involved. We show that $S$-local homogeneous functors of degree $n$ are equivalent to levelwise $S$-local spectra with an action of the orthogonal group $O(n)$ via a zigzag of Quillen equivalences between appropriate model categories. Our theory specialises to homological localizations and nullifications at a based space. We give a variety of applications including a reformulation of the Telescope Conjecture in terms of our local orthogonal calculus and a calculus version of Postnikov sections.
