The homotopy of MString and MU<6> at large primes Mark Hovey We use Hopf rings to compute the homotopy rings $\pi_{*}\MO{8}$ and $\pi_{*}\MU{6}$ at primes $>3$. In this case, the additive structure is well-known, but the ring structure is not polynomial. Instead, these rings are quotients of polynomial rings by infinite regular sequences.
