A decomposition formula for equivariant stable homotopy classes

Abstract

For any compact Lie group $G$, we give a decomposition of the group $\{X,Y\}_G^k$ of (unpointed) stable $G$-homotopy classes as a direct sum of subgroups of fixed orbit types. This is done by interpreting the $G$-homotopy classes in terms of the generalized fixed-point transfer and making use of conormal maps.
