Greenlees's universality conjecture for equivariant complex cobordism
Greenlees's universality conjecture for equivariant complex cobordism
Let be a finite abelian group, let be a complex oriented -equivariant spectrum, and let denote the canonical -equivariant complex cobordism spectrum. The associated equivariant formal group laws have the structures of a complete algebra with comultiplication, an augmentation compatible with comultiplication, and elements indexed by the characters of as described above.
Greenlees's conjecture. There is a unique homomorphism of rings
such that induces maps sending structures , , and for the canonical equivariant formal group law corresponding to to the corresponding structures for .
This asserts that equivariant complex cobordism is universal among complex oriented -equivariant cohomology theories through its canonical equivariant formal group law. The supplied source does not state a resolution, so the conjecture is recorded as open.
