Let $G=SU(2)$ and let $Omega G$ denote the space of based loops in SU(2). We explicitly compute the $R(G)$-module structure of the topological equivariant $K$-theory $K_G^*(Omega G)$ and in particular show that it is a direct product of copies of $K^*_G(pt) cong R(G)$. (We intend to describe in detail the $R(G)$-algebra (i.e. product) structure of $K^*_G(Omega G)$ in a forthcoming companion paper.) Our proof uses the geometric methods for analyzing loop spaces introduced by Pressley and Segal (and further developed by Mitchell). However, Pressley and Segal do not explicitly compute equivariant $K$-theory and we also need further analysis of the spaces involved since we work in the equivariant setting. With this in mind, we have taken this opportunity to expand on the original exposition of Pressley-Segal in the hope that in doing so, both our results and theirs would be made accessible to a wider audience.

Let G=SU(2) and let Omega G denote the space of continuous based loops in G, equipped with the pointwise conjugation action of G. It is a classical fact in topology that the ordinary cohomology H^*(Omega G) is a divided polynomial algebra Gamma[x]. T he algebra Gamma[x] can be described as an inverse limit as k goes to infinity of the symmetric subalgebra in the exterior algebra Lambda(x_1, ...,x_k) in the variables x_1, ..., x_k. We compute the R(G)-algebra structure of the G-equivariant K-theory of Omega G in a way which naturally generalizes the classical computation of the ordinary cohomology ring of Omega G as a divided polynomial algebra Gamma[x]. Specifically, we prove that K^*_G(Omega G) is an inverse limit of the symmetric (S_{2r}-invariant) subalgebra of K^*_G((P^1)^{2r}), where the symmetric group S_{2r} acts in the natural way on the factors of the 2r-fold product (P^1)^{2r} and G acts diagonally via the standard action on each complex projective line P^1.
We rework and generalize equivariant infinite loop space theory, which shows how to construct G-spectra from G-spaces with suitable structure. There is a naive version which gives naive G-spectra for any topological group G, but our focus is on the c onstruction of genuine G-spectra when G is finite. We give new information about the Segal and operadic equivariant infinite loop space machines, supplying many details that are missing from the literature, and we prove by direct comparison that the two machines give equivalent output when fed equivalent input. The proof of the corresponding nonequivariant uniqueness theorem, due to May and Thomason, works for naive G-spectra for general G but fails hopelessly for genuine G-spectra when G is finite. Even in the nonequivariant case, our comparison theorem is considerably more precise, giving a direct point-set level comparison. We have taken the opportunity to update this general area, equivariant and nonequivariant, giving many new proofs, filling in some gaps, and giving some corrections to results in the literature.

We construct a $C_2$-equivariant spectral sequence for RO$(C_2)$-graded homotopy groups. The construction is by using the motivic effective slice filtration and the $C_2$-equivariant Betti realization. We apply the spectral sequence to compute the RO $(C_2)$-graded homotopy groups of the completed $C_2$-equivariant connective real $K$-theory spectrum. The computation reproves the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence results by Guillou, Hill, Isaksen and Ravenel.
We give a new construction of the equivariant $K$-theory of group actions (cf. Barwick et al.), producing an infinite loop $G$-space for each Waldhausen category with $G$-action, for a finite group $G$. On the category $R(X)$ of retractive spaces ove r a $G$-space $X$, this produces an equivariant lift of Waldhausens functor $A(X)$, and we show that the $H$-fixed points are the bivariant $A$-theory of the fibration $X_{hH}to BH$. We then use the framework of spectral Mackey functors to produce a second equivariant refinement $A_G(X)$ whose fixed points have tom Dieck type splittings. We expect this second definition to be suitable for an equivariant generalization of the parametrized $h$-cobordism theorem.
The family of Thom spectra $y(n)$ interpolate between the sphere spectrum and the mod two Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum. Computations of Mahowald, Ravenel, and Shick and the authors show that the $E_1$ ring spectrum $y(n)$ has chromatic complexity $n$. We show that topological periodic cyclic homology of $y(n)$ has chromatic complexity $n+1$. This gives evidence that topological periodic cyclic homology shifts chromatic height at all chromatic heights, supporting a variant of the Ausoni--Rognes red-shift conjecture. We also show that relative algebraic K-theory, topological cyclic homology, and topological negative cyclic homology of $y(n)$ at least preserve chromatic complexity.
