Smith theory and the functor T (Q804008)

The main geometric point behind this purely algebraic paper is the following extension of Smith theory with relaxed finiteness assumptions: Let W be an elementary abelian p-group and V a subgroup. For certain W- spaces X having finite-dimensional mod p cohomology the inclusion of the homotopy fixed points of V, \(X^{hV}\subset X\), induces an isomorphism in W-equivariant cohomology after a suitable localization. The proofs make heavy use of Lannes' functor T.
