Abstract
We prove explicit rational stable splittings of equivariant complex projective spaces and Grassmannians , for complex representations . When is a sum of one-dimensional representations, both and are rationally a wedge of representation spheres. For general finite groups and a sum of irreducible representations which are not necessarily one-dimensional, we show that splits rationally as a wedge of Thom spaces over irreducible factors in . For , the factors in the corresponding rational splitting are a smash product of Thom spaces over lower Grassmannians on irreducible factors in .
