First we show that a G-spectrum can be replaced by a spectrum obtained by allowing only isotropy groups of prime power order without changing the homotopy type of the completion. We then show that this completion can be computed as a homotopy colimit of completions of spectra obtained by further restricting isotropy to one prime at a time, and that these completions can be computed in terms of completion at a prime. As an application, we show that the spectrum of stable maps from BG to the classifying space of a compact Lie group K splits non-equivariantly as a wedge sum of p-completed suspension spectra of classifying spaces of certain subquotients of the product of G and K. In particular this describes the dual of BG.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2011-04-01T15:16:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P42", "55R39", "55P60", "55P91" ], "keywords": [ "classifying space", "completion", "stable maps", "compact lie group", "prime power order" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Adv.
