Abstract

We use the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence to compute part of the $C_2$-equivariant stable homotopy groups $π^{C_2}_{n,n}$. This allows us to recover results of Bredon and Landweber on the image of the geometric fixed-points map from the equivariant homotopy group $π^{C_2}_{n,n}$ to the classical $π_0$. We also recover results of Mahowald and Ravenel on the Mahowald root invariants of the elements $2^k$.
