===Order of Ξ<sub>n</sub>=== The order of the group <math>\Theta_n</math> is given in this table {{OEIS|id=A001676}} from {{harv|Kervaire|Milnor|1963}} (except that the entry for <math>n = 19</math> is wrong by a factor of 2 in their paper; see the correction in volume III p. 97 of Milnor's collected works). :{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" |- !

Further entries in this table can be computed from the information above together with the table of [[stable homotopy groups of spheres]]. By computations of stable homotopy groups of spheres, {{harvtxt|Wang|Xu|2017}} proves that the sphere {{math|''S''<sup>61</sup>}} has a unique smooth structure, and that it is the last odd-dimensional sphere with this property β the only ones are {{math|''S''<sup>1</sup>}}, {{math|''S''<sup>3</sup>}}, {{math|''S''<sup>5</sup>}}, and {{math|''S''<sup>61</sup>}}.
