E 'Infinite' Ring Spaces and E 'Infinite' Ring Spectra
by J. P. May
Publisher: Springer 1977
ISBN/ASIN: 3540081364

Number of pages: 280
Description:
The theme of this book is infinite loop space theory and its multiplicative elaboration. This is the appropriate framework for the most structured development of algebraic K-theory, by which we understand the homotopy theory of discrete categories, and one of the main goals of this volume is a complete analysis of the relationship between the classifying spaces of geometric topology and the infinite loop spaces of algebraic K-theory.

H Ring Spectra and Their Applicationsby R. R. Bruner, J. P. May, J. E. McClure, M. Steinberger - Springer
This volume concerns spectra with enriched multiplicative structure. It is a truism that interesting cohomology theories are represented by ring spectra, the product on the spectrum giving rise to the cup products in the theory.
