The spectrum of the Burnside Tambara functor on a finite cyclic \(p\)-group (Q401710)

For any finite group \(G\), there is a notion of Tambara functor on \(G\) (see [\textit{D. Tambara}, Commun. Algebra 21, No. 4, 1393--1420 (1993; Zbl 0797.19001)]) which can be thought as similar to a commutative ring, Mackey functors for \(G\)-sets having the place of abelian groups. Such a functor is the data of three functors from \(G\)-sets to sets, one (the restriction) being covariant and the two other (the additive and multiplicative transfers) being contravariant, which satisfy suitable conditions -- in particular, they agree on objects. The typical example is the Burnside Tambara functor \(\Omega_G\), which sends a \(G\)-set \(X\) on the Grothendieck ring \(K_0\) of the category of \(G\)-sets over \(X\) (here, restriction and transfers have the usual meaning). A Tambara functor on \(G\) can also be seen as a collection of commutative rings indexed by subgroups of \(G\), endowed with suitable structure maps. There are also notions of ideal, prime ideal and prime spectrum of a Tambara functor on \(G\). The last one is the set of all prime ideal of the functor endowed with a topology similar to Zariski topology for prime spectrum of usual commutative rings. The article under review gives a complete description of the prime spectrum of the Burnside Tambara functor on a cyclic \(p\)-group, where \(p\) is any prime number.
