Fausk–Lewis–May conjecture on homotopy representations
Fausk–Lewis–May conjecture on homotopy representations
Let be a compact Lie group. A homotopy representation of is a finite-dimensional -representation sphere-type object, and let denote its Grothendieck group. Let denote the Grothendieck group of generalized homotopy representations. There is a canonical map
Fausk–Lewis–May conjecture. The canonical map
is an isomorphism for any compact Lie group . This conjecture concerns the comparison between homotopy and generalized homotopy representations and, via the identification of with the Picard group of the equivariant stable homotopy category, gives structural information about invertible -spectra. The paper's abstract states that the conjecture is resolved for compact Lie groups whose component group has all projective integral group-ring modules stably free; it does not establish the assertion for every compact Lie group.
