Approximation of $C^1$-smooth equivariant maps by infinitely smooth ones
Let $M,N$ be smooth closed manifolds acted by a finite group $G$. Let $f\colon M\to N$ be a $C^1$-smooth $G$-equivariant map.
Is it true that for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a $C^\infty$-...

Equivariant smooth approximation
Suppose we have a compact manifold $M$ with the action of a compact group $G$. Consider the space of $C^l$ $G$-equivariant diffeomorphisms $\text{Diff}_G^{l}(M)$ with the $C^l$ topology and the space ...

A group action on another group action quotient: how to best describe the resulting structure and does it have a name?
Suppose I have an action $\alpha:G\times X\to X$ of a group $G$ on a set $X$ and, on top of that, an action $\beta:H\times(X/G)\to(X/G)$ of another group $H$ on the set of $G$-orbits.
Is there a nice ...

Classification of (complex algebraic) vector bundles on punctured affine space
The Quillen-Suslin theorem asserts that there are no nontrivial vector bundles over the affine space $\mathbb{A}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 0$.
Let's work over the complex numbers. What can be said about vector ...

Equivariant Riemann-Roch on DM stacks?
Does an equivariant version of (Toen)-Riemann-Roch theorem hold say over a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack $X$ over the complex numbers?
Any references that state this explicitely?
Are there formulas ...

Equivariant K-theory of $S^1$-action on $S^2$
Is there any references for the structure of the equivariant K-theory $K_{S^1}(S^2)$ where the action of $S^1$ on $S^2$ is defined to be rotation about the $z$-axis? What is the ring structore of $K_{...

For a G-variety, what could one say about the motif of the corresponding simplicial variety
Let G be an algerbraic group, and X be a G-variety (that I will assume to be smooth). Then one can consider a simlicial variety whose terms are $G^i\times X$. This simplicial variety yields a 'complex ...

G-Modules on X=G/H modules on X/H ?
I think it is true that $G$-equivariant sheaves on $X$ are equal to $G/H$ equivariant sheaves on $X/H$. More precisely I'm interested in the following statement:
Given an algebraic group $G$ with ...
