 Nora Ganter Mathematics , 2007, Abstract: We study the loop spaces of the symmetric powers of an orbifold and use our results to define equivariant power operations in Tate K-theory. We prove that these power operations are elliptic and that the Witten genus is an H_oo map. As a corollary, we recover a formula by Dijkgraaf, Moore, Verlinde and Verlinde for the orbifold Witten genus of these symmetric powers. We outline some of the relationship between our power operations and notions from (generalized) Moonshine.
 Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: Withdrawn by the authors because the results of this paper are subsumed within and improved by the two papers 1. A plethora of inertial products and 2. Chern Classes and Compatible Power Operations in Inertial K-theory
 Nora Ganter Mathematics , 2004, Abstract: We generalize the definition of orbifold elliptic genus, and introduce orbifold genera of chromatic level h, using h-tuples rather than pairs of commuting elements. We show that our genera are in fact orbifold invariants, and we prove integrality results for them. If the genus arises from an H-infinity-map into the Morava-Lubin-Tate theory E_h, then we give a formula expressing the orbifold genus of the symmetric powers of a stably almost complex manifold M in terms of the genus of M itself. Our formula is the p-typical analogue of the Dijkgraaf-Moore-Verlinde-Verlinde formula for the orbifold elliptic genus. It depends only on h and not on the genus.
 Martin Langer Mathematics , 2010, DOI: 10.2140/agt.2012.12.829 Abstract: Let k be the field with p>0 elements, and let G be a finite group. By exhibiting an E-infinity-operad action on Hom(P,k) for a complete projective resolution P of the trivial kG-module k, we obtain power operations of Dyer-Lashof type on Tate cohomology H*(G; k). Our operations agree with the usual Steenrod operations on ordinary cohomology. We show that they are compatible (in a suitable sense) with products of groups, and (in certain cases) with the Evens norm map. These theorems provide tools for explicit computations of the operations for small groups G. We also show that the operations in negative degree are non-trivial. As an application, we prove that at the prime 2 these operations can be used to determine whether a Tate cohomology class is productive (in the sense of Carlson) or not.
 Andrew Baker Mathematics , 2014, Abstract: We describe the action of power operations on the $p$-completed cooperation algebra $K^\vee_0 K = K_0(K)^{\displaystyle\hat{}}_p$ for $K$-theory at a prime~$p$.
 Mathematics , 2013, Abstract: We analyze the structure of the virtual (orbifold) K-theory ring of the complex orbifold P(1,n) and its virtual Adams (or power) operations, by using the non-Abelian localization theorem of Edidin-Graham. In particular, we identify the group of virtual line elements and obtain a natural presentation for the virtual K-theory ring in terms of these virtual line elements. This yields a surjective homomorphism from the virtual K-theory ring of P(1,n) to the ordinary K-theory ring of a crepant resolution of the cotangent bundle of P(1,n) which respects the Adams operations. Furthermore, there is a natural subring of the virtual K-theory ring of P(1,n) which is isomorphic to the ordinary K-theory ring of the resolution. This generalizes the results of Edidin-Jarvis-Kimura who proved the latter for n=2,3.
 Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: Let [X/G] be a smooth Deligne-Mumford quotient stack. In a previous paper the authors constructed a class of exotic products called inertial products on K(I[X/G]), the Grothendieck group of vector bundles on the inertia stack I[X/G]. In this paper we develop a theory of Chern classes and compatible power operations for inertial products. When G is diagonalizable these give rise to an augmented $\lambda$-ring structure on inertial K-theory. One well-known inertial product is the virtual product. Our results show that for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks there is a $\lambda$-ring structure on inertial K-theory. As an example, we compute the $\lambda$-ring structure on the virtual K-theory of the weighted projective lines P(1,2) and P(1,3). We prove that after tensoring with C, the augmentation completion of this $\lambda$-ring is isomorphic as a $\lambda$-ring to the classical K-theory of the crepant resolutions of singularities of the coarse moduli spaces of the cotangent bundles $T^*P(1,2)$ and $T^*P(1,3)$, respectively. We interpret this as a manifestation of mirror symmetry in the spirit of the Hyper-Kaehler Resolution Conjecture.
 Charles Vial Mathematics , 2008, Abstract: We show that operations in Milnor K-theory mod $p$ of a field are spanned by divided power operations. After giving an explicit formula for divided power operations and extending them to some new cases, we determine for all fields $k$ and all prime numbers $p$, all the operations $K^M_i/p \to K^M_j/p$ commuting with field extensions over the base field $k$. Moreover, the integral case is discussed and we determine the operations $K^M_i/p \to K^M_j/p$ for smooth schemes over a field.
 E. Gorsky Mathematics , 2008, Abstract: We construct a family of additive endomorphisms $\Psi_k, k=1, 2...$ of the Grothendieck ring of quasiprojective varieties and the Grothendieck ring of Chow motives similar to the Adams operations in the K-theory. The speciality of the $\lambda$-structure on the Grothendieck ring of motives (proved by F. Heinloth) gives a set of natural equations for these operations. We discuss this construction in a general setting and relate it to the concept of power structures introduced by S. Gusein-Zade, I. Luengo and A. Melle-Hernandez. Some interpretation of the E. Getzler's formula for the equivariant Hodge-Deligne polynomial of the configuration spaces is also discussed.
 Mathematics , 2001, DOI: 10.1007/s00220-003-0849-x Abstract: We use equivariant methods to establish basic properties of orbifold K-theory. We introduce the notion of twisted orbifold K-theory in the presence of discrete torsion, and show how it can be explicitly computed for global quotients.
