Abstract:

In Comment. Math. Helv. 55 (1980), 233–254, Kratzer defined Lambda operations on classical algebraic K-theory by using exterior powers of representations and a splitting principle (R. G. Swan, Proc. Sympos. in Pure Math. 21 (1971), 155–159). Because hyperbolic forms are not stable under exterior powers, we instead use a larger class of symmetric bilinear forms to define the operation of exterior powers on the classifying space of the orthogonal K-theory.
