For an equivariant commutative ring spectrum $R$, $\pi_0 R$ has algebraic structure reflecting the presence of both additive transfers and multiplicative norms. The additive structure gives rise to a Mackey functor and the multiplicative…

Tambara functors are an equivariant generalization of rings that appear as the homotopy groups of genuine equivariant commutative ring spectra. In recent work, Blumberg and Hill have studied the corresponding algebraic structures, called…

In this paper we extend equivariant infinite loop space theory to take into account multiplicative norms: For every finite group $G$, we construct a multiplicative refinement of the comparison between the $\infty$-categories of connective…

We survey and extend the theory of Tambara functors. These are algebraic structures similar to Mackey functors, but with multiplicative norm maps as well as additive transfer maps, and a rule governing their interaction that is most easily…

Bi-incomplete Tambara functors are equivariant generalizations of commutative rings. The most common forms of bi-incomplete Tambara functors are coefficient systems of commutative rings, Green functors, and Tambara functors. In the 1980s,…

Tambara functors are equivariant analogues of rings arising in representation theory and equivariant homotopy theory. We introduce the notion of a clarified Tambara functor and show that under mild conditions every Tambara functor admits a…

It is well known that the zeroth stable homotopy group of a genuine equivariant commutative ring spectrum has multiplicative transfers (norms), making it into a Tambara functor. We prove here that all Tambara functors can be obtained in…

Associated to each Tambara functor $T$ is its Nakaoka spectrum $\mathrm{Spec}(T)$, analogous to the Zariski spectrum of a commutative ring. We establish that this topological space is spectral. This result follows from an analysis of the…

For an arbitrary group $G$, a (semi-)Mackey functor is a pair of covariant and contravariant functors from the category of $G$-sets, and is regarded as a $G$-bivariant analog of a commutative (semi-)group. In this view, a $G$-bivariant…

In the previous article 'A Mackey-functor theoretic interpretation of biset functors', we have constructed the 2-category $\mathbb{S}$ of finite sets with variable finite group actions, in which bicoproducts and bipullbacks exist. As shown…

Tambara functors arise in equivariant homotopy theory as the structure adherent to the homotopy groups of a coherently commutative equivariant ring spectrum. We show that if $k$ is a field-like $C_{p^n}$-Tambara functor, then $k$ is the…

For a finite group $G$, (semi-)Mackey functors and (semi-)Tambara functors are regarded as $G$-bivariant analogs of (semi-)groups and (semi-)rings respectively. In fact if $G$ is trivial, they agree with the ordinary (semi-)groups and…

For a finite group $G$, a semi-Mackey (resp. Tambara) functor is regarded as a $G$-bivariant analog of a commutative monoid (resp. ring). As such, some naive algebraic constructions are generalized to this $G$-bivariant setting. In this…

In this paper we give detailed algebraic descriptions of the derived symmetric power and norm constructions on categories of Mackey functors, as well as the derived G-symmetric monoidal structure. We build on the results of [Ull2], in which…

For a finite group $G$, a Tambara functor on $G$ is regarded as a $G$-bivariant analog of a commutative ring. In this article, we consider a $G$-bivariant analog of the ideal theory for Tambara functors.

For all subgroups $H$ of a cyclic $p$-group $G$ we define norm functors that build a $G$-Mackey functor from an $H$-Mackey functor. We give an explicit construction of these functors in terms of generators and relations based solely on the…

We construct a faithful and conservative functor from prisms to $C_{p^\infty}$-Tambara functors; in appropriate situations, this gives an algebraic description of $\underline\pi_0{\mathrm{TC}^-}$. We also present two integral variants using…

Tambara functors are the analogue of commutative rings in equivariant algebra. Nakaoka defined ideals in Tambara functors, leading to the definition of the Nakaoka spectrum of prime ideals in a Tambara functor. In this work, we continue the…

Using the Burklund-Schlank-Yuan abstraction of ``algebraically closed" to ``Nullstellensatzian", we show that a $G$-Tambara functor is Nullstellensatzian if and only if it is the coinduction of an algebraically closed field (for any finite…

Free algebras are always free as modules over the base ring in classical algebra. In equivariant algebra, free incomplete Tambara functors play the role of free algebras and Mackey functors play the role of modules. Surprisingly, free…
