In mathematics, more specifically in chromatic homotopy theory, the redshift conjecture states, roughly, that algebraic K-theory
has chromatic level one higher than that of a complex-oriented ring spectrum R.[1] It was formulated by John Rognes in a lecture at Schloss Ringberg, Germany, in January 1999, and made more precise by him in a lecture at Mathematische Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, Germany, in September 2000.
[2] In July 2022, Robert Burklund, Tomer Schlank and Allen Yuan announced a solution of a version of the redshift conjecture for arbitrary
-ring spectra, after Hahn and Wilson did so earlier in the case of the truncated Brown-Peterson spectra
