Equivariant Framed Little Disk Operads are Additive

Algebraic Topology 2024-10-29 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we generalize the Dunn-Brinkmeier~additivity theorem, which establishes a weak equivalence CnCmCn+m\mathcal{C}_n \otimes \mathcal{C}_m \simeq \mathcal{C}_{n+m} for the little cubes operad Cn\mathcal{C}_n. We introduce equivariant framed little disk operads, a new class of operads that simultaneously generalize the framed little disk operads and the little VV-disk operads associated with a GG-representation VV. We prove that these operads satisfy an analogous additivity property, extending the classical theorem to settings involving group actions and framings.
