Let
denote the very
effective cover of the motivic hermitian K-theory spectrum. We analyze the ring of cooperations
in the stable motivic
homotopy category
,
giving a full description in terms of Brown–Gitler comodules. To do this, we decompose
the
-page
of the motivic Adams spectral sequence and show that it must collapse. The description of
the
-page
is accomplished by a series of algebraic Atiyah–Hirzebruch
spectral sequences which converge to the summands of the
-page.
Along the way, we prove a splitting result for the very effective symplectic K-theory
ksp over any base field of characteristic not two.
