Homotopy principles for equivariant isomorphisms

Equivariant Homotopy Theory

In this note we announce an obstruction theory for extending (continuous) equivariant maps defined on a certain class of G-spaces, where G is a compact Lie group. The details of this work will be published elsewhere. Our results barely touch upon the attendant problem of providing techniques that would serve in practice for the computation of the obstruction groups. In general this last problem...

Equivariant stable homotopy theory

We will study equivariant homotopy theory for G a finite group (although this often easily generalizes to compact Lie groups). The general idea is that if we have two G-spaces X and Y , we’d like to study homotopy classes of equivariant maps between them: [X,Y ] = Map(X,Y )/htpy, where Map(X,Y ) = {f : X → Y |f(gx) = gf(x) for all g ∈ G}. In classical homotopy theory (i.e. when G is the trivial...

On Equivariant Homotopy Theory for Model Categories

Two approaches to equivariant homotopy theory in a topological or ordinary Quillen model category are studied and compared. For the topological model category of spaces, we recover that the categories of topological presheaves indexed by the orbit category of a fixed topological group G and the category of G-spaces form Quillen equivalent model categories.
