Abstract
The cyclic sieving phenomenon is a well-studied occurrence in combinatorics appearing when a cyclic group acts on a finite set. In this paper, we demonstrate a natural extension of this theory to finite abelian groups. We also present a similar result for dihedral groups and suggest approaches for natural generalizations to nonabelian groups.
