For finite covers of classifying spaces of finite groups, we provide algebraic formulas for this extension in terms of bisets. In the sequel, we show that this induces a natural evaluation map on the full subcategory of the homotopy category of spectra consisting of $p$-completed classifying spectra of finite groups.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-08-14T14:06:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P35", "55R12", "55R37", "19A22" ], "keywords": [ "free loop spaces", "finite covers", "finite groups", "natural evaluation map", "homotopy category" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
