(∞, 1)-categorical description of equivariant homotopy theory

I'm trying to learn a bit about equivariant homotopy theory. Let G be a compact Lie group. I guess there is a cofibrantly generated model category whose objects are (compactly generated weak ...

Motivation for equivariant sheaves?

Hello everyone; i'm looking for a motivation for equivariant sheaves (see http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/equivariant+sheaf) ~ Why are we interested in them? More explicitely: Can I think of G-...

Is there a 2-categorical, equivariant version of Quillen's Theorem A?

Quillen's Theorem A says that a functor $F:C \to D$ (between 1-categories) induces a homotopy equivalence of classifying spaces $BC \simeq BD$ if for every object $d$ in $D$ the fiber category $F/d$ ...

Equivariant colimits and homotopy colimits

Suppose we are given a diagram of topological spaces. We can restrict ourselves to the diagrams over finite partially ordered sets and let all spaces be good enough (e.g. CW-complexes). One can take ...

Iterated Homotopy Quotient

If one has a normal Lie group inclusion $H\to G$, with quotient $G/H$, and a $G$-manifold $X$, one can take the quotient $X/H$. Then the $G$-action on $X/H$ factors thru a $G/H$-action, so one can ...

What is the relationship between $O_G$-parameterized $\infty$-categories and $\infty$-categories enriched in $Top_G$?

Let $G$ be a finite group. Barwick et al define a $G-\infty$-category to be a fibration over the orbit category $O_G$ of transitive $G$-sets. But in the non-$\infty$-land, the natural guess at where I ...

K-theory of free $G$-sets and the classifying space, and generalization

$\newcommand\Sets{\mathrm{Sets}}\DeclareMathOperator\Nerve{Nerve}$Let $G$ be a finite group, $\mathcal{G}^0$ be the category of finite free $G$-sets and isomorphisms between them. Then $\mathcal{G}^0$...

Projective resolution of a dual coefficient system

I was trying to read the paper "Equivariant minimal models" by G. Triantafillou(1982) and was trying to compute cohomology of a system of DGA with rational coefficient system. Given a finite ...
