Stability and distributivity over orbital [infinity]-categories/

Abstract

Let G be a finite group. The homotopy theory of topological spaces with an action of G has provided important applications in many parts of homotopy theory and geometry. An especially important role has been played by the so-called "norm maps". In this thesis we develop a characterization of the [infinity]-category of G-spectra and of its multiplicative structure in term of the behaviour with respect to equivariant colimits. This will allow us to give an alternative construction of the norm map.
