Abstract
We show that Hopkins and Lurie’s [1] computation of the Brauer group Br(E) of a Lubin-Tate spectrum E can be used to describe the G-action on Br(E) for G any finite subgroup of the Morava stabilizer group. To do this, we equip their category of synthetic E-modules with a coherent G-action and show that the synthetic analogue functor is symmetric monoidally equivariant. We then show that our G-action on Syn_E induces a G-action on the Hopkins-Lurie filtration of Br(E), giving a filtration of Br(E) as a G-module. Finally, we give an explicit description of the G-action on the Brauer group of the abelian category of Milnor modules, which serves as the bottom of the filtration computing Br(E).
