Abstract We construct a lift of the $$p$$-complete sphere to the universal height $$1$$ higher semiadditive stable $$\infty $$-category of Carmeli–Schlank–Yanovski, providing a counterexample, at height $$1$$, to their conjecture that the natural functor $$ _n \to \operatorname{\textrm{Sp}}_{T(n)}$$ is an equivalence. We then record some consequences of the construction, including an observation of Schlank that this gives a conceptual proof of a classical theorem of Lee on the stable cohomotopy of Eilenberg–MacLane spaces. 

We develop a higher semiadditive version of Grothendieck-Witt theory. We then apply the theory in the case of a finite field to study the higher semiadditive structure of the $K\left(1\right)$-local sphere ${\mathbb{S}}_{K\left(1\right)}$at the prime $2$, in particular realizing the non- $2$-adic rational element $1+\mathrm{\epsilon <\#comment/>}\in <\#comment/>{\mathrm{\pi <\#comment/>}}_0{\mathbb{S}}_{K\left(1\right)}$as a “semiadditive cardinality.” As a further application, we compute and clarify certain power operations in ${\mathrm{\pi <\#comment/>}}_0{\mathbb{S}}_{K\left(1\right)}$. 

We give a fully faithful integral model for simply connected finite complexes in terms of ${\mathbb{E}}_{\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}}$-ring spectra and the Nikolaus–Scholze Frobenius. The key technical input is the development of a homotopy coherent Frobenius action on a certain subcategory of $p$-complete ${\mathbb{E}}_{\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}}$-rings for each prime $p$. Using this, we show that the data of a simply connected finite complex $X$is the data of its Spanier-Whitehead dual, as an ${\mathbb{E}}_{\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}}$-ring, together with a trivialization of the Frobenius action after completion at each prime. In producing the above Frobenius action, we explore two ideas which may be of independent interest. The first is a more general action of Frobenius in equivariant homotopy theory; we show that a version of Quillen’s $Q$-construction acts on the $\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}$-category of ${\mathbb{E}}_{\mathrm{\infty <\#comment/>}}$-rings with “genuine equivariant multiplication,” which we call global algebras. The second is a “pre-group-completed” variant of algebraic $K$-theory which we callpartial $K$-theory. We develop the notion of partial $K$-theory and give a computation of the partial $K$-theory of ${\mathbb{F}}_p$up to $p$-completion.
