Abstract
We provide a sketch of the proof of the non-existence of Kervaire Invariant one manifolds using equivariant homotopy theory. A treatment of the statement and history of the problem can be found in “The Arf-Kervaire problem in algebraic topology: Introduction”. Our goal here is to introduce the reader to the techniques used to prove the result and to familiarize them with the kinds of computations needed.
