### The power operation structure on Morava $E$–theory of height $2$ at the prime $3$

Yifei Zhu

#### Abstract

We give explicit calculations of the algebraic theory of power operations for a specific Morava $E$–theory spectrum and its $K(1)$–localization. These power operations arise from the universal degree-$3$ isogeny of elliptic curves associated to the $E$–theory.
