Equivariant homotopy theory focuses on spaces together with some group action on them. Jeroen van der Meer and Richard Wong have a paper where they use equivariant methods to compute the Picard group ...

Consider the one-point compactification of a $U(n)$-representation $V$, denoted by $S^V$. I want to caclulate $\tilde{K}_\ast^{U(n)}(S^V)$. When $V$ is a complex $U(n)$-representation, we can use the ...

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. I am trying to characterize the algebraic properties of the representation ring $R(G)$ of $G$. In the case of the $n$-torus, the representation ring $R(T)$ is ...

One of the slickest things to happen to topology was the proof of the Hopf invariant one using Adams operations in $K$-theory. The general idea is that the ring $K(X)$ admits operations $\psi^k$ that ...

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group and $V$ a finite-dimensional orthogonal $G$-representation. Write $S^V$ for the quotient $D(V)/S(V)$, where $D(V)$ and $S(V)$ are the unit disk and sphere in $V$, ...
