A model for normed algebras in rational G-spectra

Abstract

For a finite group GG, we construct a simplified model for the GG-symmetric monoidal GG-\infty-category of rational GG-spectra. Using this model, we classify I\mathcal{I}-normed algebras in rational GG-spectra for a given indexing system I\mathcal{I}. We show that such an algebra is equivalently described as a collection {X(G/H)}(HG)\{\mathcal{X}(G/H)\}_{(H\leq G)} of commutative algebras in nonequivariant rational spectra, indexed by conjugacy classes of subgroups of GG, together with compatible morphisms of commutative algebras X(G/K)X(G/H)\mathcal{X}(G/K)\xrightarrow{}\mathcal{X}(G/H) whenever KHK\leq H and the induced map G/KG/HG/K\xrightarrow{}G/H is in I\mathcal{I}. This generalizes a result by Wimmer arXiv:1905.12420.
