Extract

In the previous papers in this series (see (5) and (6)) we used Brown-Peterson theory to obtain necessary conditions for the mod p cohomology of finite H-spaces to be U(M) algebras. In this paper we will use connective K-theory to strengthen the main results of (6). We should mention that we will be assuming a general knowledge of the previous two papers from this series. The definitions and notation from these papers will be used freely. (In particular, the reader is directed to § 2 of (5) for the definition of a U(M) algebra.)
