Dec 24, 2009 at 13:36 comment added Chris Schommer-Pries Those adjunctions can only exist if G is discrete. It's not clear from the question if we are assuming this or if G was allowed to be, say, a compact Lie group.
Dec 23, 2009 at 12:32 comment added user2146 Is something like the following possible? I guess there are adjunctions $GTop\rightleftarrows GsSet \rightleftarrows GsAb\rightleftarrows Ch(GAb)$. I would denote the composition with $N\circ\mathbb{Z}\circ Sing$. Then perhaps one can define $H^n(X,\mathbb{Z})= H^n(N\circ\mathbb{Z}\circ Sing(X))$.

Dec 23, 2009 at 2:52 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez If $G$ acts on $M$, then $G$ acts on $M$'s de Rham complex $\Omega^\bullet(M)$. Now take $\mathbb{H}^\bullet(G,\Omega^\bullet(M))$. This gives you an equivariant theory. You can do it replacing $\Omega^\*(M)$ by $S^\*(M)$, the singular complex, of course. Since hypercohomology sees only the quasi-isomorphism type of its argument, you get isomorphisms between what you get from de Rham and what you get from $S^\*(M)$, &c.
Dec 23, 2009 at 2:47 comment added Kevin H. Lin Do you really mean just the de Rham complex? There's no $G$−stuff in the de Rham complex, and shouldn't equivariant stuff involve $G$−stuff?

Dec 23, 2009 at 2:35 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez Isn't Cartan's equivariant cohomology the hypercohomology of the de Rham complex?
