Let $pi$ be a group equipped with an action of a second group $G$ by automorphisms. We define the equivariant cohomological dimension ${sf cd}_G(pi)$, the equivariant geometric dimension ${sf gd}_G(pi)$, and the equivariant Lusternik-Schnirelmann category ${sf cat}_G(pi)$ in terms of the Bredon dimensions and classifying space of the family of subgroups of the semi-direct product $pirtimes G$ consisting of sub-conjugates of $G$. When $G$ is finite, we extend theorems of Eilenberg-Ganea and Stallings-Swan to the equivariant setting, thereby showing that all three invariants coincide (except for the possibility of a $G$-group $pi$ with ${sf cat}_G(pi)={sf cd}_G(pi)=2$ and ${sf gd}_G(pi)=3$). A main ingredient is the purely algebraic result that the cohomological dimension of any finite group with respect to any family of proper subgroups is greater than one. This implies a Stallings-Swan type result for families of subgroups which do not contain all finite subgroups.
We develop the theory of equivariant sheaves over profinite spaces, where the group is also taken to be profinite. We construct a good notion of equivariant presheaves, with a suitable sheafification functor. Using these results on equivariant preshe
If $G$ has $4$-periodic cohomology, then D2 complexes over $G$ are determined up to polarised homotopy by their Euler characteristic if and only if $G$ has at most two one-dimensional quaternionic representations. We use this to solve Walls D2 proble
Let P be an extraspecial p-group which is neither dihedral of order 8, nor of odd order p^3 and exponent p. Let G be a finite group having P as a Sylow p-subgroup. Then the mod-p cohomology ring of G coincides with that of the normalizer N_G(P).
We prove that certain families of Coxeter groups and inclusions $W_1hookrightarrow W_2hookrightarrow...$ satisfy homological stability, meaning that in each degree the homology $H_ast(BW_n)$ is eventually independent of $n$. This gives a uniform trea
We show that the mod $ell$ cohomology of any finite group of Lie type in characteristic $p$ different from $ell$ admits the structure of a module over the mod $ell$ cohomology of the free loop space of the classifying space $BG$ of the corresponding
