13. Steenrod Algebra

    1. Problem 13.1.

      [Williamson]
      1. What is the representation-theoretic meaning of the Steenrod algebra action on mod-p cohomology? For example, on the cohomology of $Gr$?
      2. Does the Steenrod algebra act on the cohomology of any parity sheaf? (Note: examples of Goresky show that this fails for mod-p IC sheaves.)
