Extract

In (7), we investigated some elements in the Adams spectral sequence for the stable homotopy groups of spheres, and proved that they were never boundaries, for any differential. This paper extends and generalizes these results: we consider more elements than in (7), and also prove that many of them do not survive to the E term, so that they fail to be cycles for some dr, and this differential is therefore non-zero.
