Abstract

We develop a theory of Mackey functors on epiorbital categories which simultaneously generalizes the theory of genuine GG-spectra for a finite group GG and the theory of nn-excisive functors on the category of spectra. Using a new theory of stratifications of a stable \infty-category along a finite poset, we prove a simultaneous generalization of two reconstruction theorems: one by Abram and Kriz on recovering GG-spectra from structure on their geometric fixed point spectra for abelian GG, and one by Arone and Ching that recovers an nn-excisive functor from structure on its derivatives. We deduce a strong tom Dieck splitting theorem for K(n)K(n)-local GG-spectra and reprove a theorem of Kuhn on the K(n)K(n)-local splitting of Taylor towers.
