Abstract
The Pontryagin-Thom theorem gives an isomorphism between the cobordism group of framed -dimensional manifolds, , and the stable homotopy group of the sphere spectrum, . The equivariant analogue of this theorem, gives an isomorphism between the equivariant cobordism group of -framed -manifolds, , and the equivariant stable homotopy group of the -sphere spectrum, , for a finite group and a -representation, . In this paper, we explicitly identify the images of each element of and in and under the equivariant Pontryagin-Thom isomorphism.
