Descent and vanishing in algebraic K-theory via group actions

Abstract: I will explain some descent and vanishing results in the algebraic K-theory of ring spectra, motivated by the redshift philosophy of Ausoni-Rognes. These results are all proved by considering group actions on stable $\infty$-categories and their K-theory, as well as some tools coming from chromatic homotopy theory. Joint work with Dustin Clausen, Niko Naumann, and Justin Noel.
