Abstract

We introduce two definitions of GG-equivariant partitions of a finite GG-set, both of which yield GG-equivariant partition complexes. By considering suitable notions of equivariant trees, we show that GG-equivariant partitions and GG-trees are GG-homotopy equivalent, generalizing existing results for the non-equivariant setting. Along the way, we develop equivariant versions of Quillen's Theorems A and B, which are of independent interest.
