Abstract
We compute the -equivariant mod Borel cohomology of the free iterated loop space when is a mod generalized Eilenberg Mac Lane space. When , this recovers B\"okstedt and Ottosen's computation for the free loop space. The highlight of our computation is a construction of cohomology classes using an -equivariant evaluation map and a pushforward map.
