Cobordism of G-manifolds (2402.12478v1)

Abstract: We survey some results in the field of equivariant cobordism. In particular, we use methods from equivariant stable homotopy theory to calculate the unoriented $C_2$-equivariant bordism ring $\Omega^{C_2}_*$, which was originally calculated by Alexander using other methods. Our proof method generalizes well to other settings, such as equivariant complex cobordism, and affords a formal group theoretic interpretation of Alexander's calculation.
