The rank-five Peterson hit problem, the fifth Singer transfer, and a geometric generator in unoriented cobordism

The Peterson hit problem seeks a minimal set of generators for the polynomial algebra $P_s = \mathbb{F}_2[x_1,\dots,x_s]$ as an unstable module over the mod-2 Steenrod algebra $\mathcal{A}$. For rank five, general admissible bases fail, and the interplay between Kameko periodicity and modular invariants becomes computa...
