A central object of the study in symmetric bifurcation theory is to describe the restrictions of equivariant mappings to the fixed-point space of a subgroup. Those constraints are equivariant under the normalizer of the subgroup, but this condition need not be the only constraint. The authors develop an approach to such questions in terms of the Hilbert series, i.e. the generating functions for the dimension of the space of equivariants of a given degree. This is done in particular for the Hilbert series of the restricted equivariants in the case when the subgroup is generated by a reflection, i.e. the fixed-point space is a hyperplane. By comparing this Hilbert series with that of a normalizer, the authors discover further constraints. In more detail the authors method is illustrated for the dihedral and symmetric group.
