In this talk we will demonstrate how letting the cyclic group of order four act on the real Grassmannians can show the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence calculating their 2-local nth Morava K-theory collapses. This uses chromatic fixed point theory coming from the classification of the equivariant Balmer spectrum of the cyclic groups. This work is joint with Nicholas Kuhn.
