Abstract

Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $p$ a prime, such that none of the prime divisors of $G$ are congruent to $1$ modulo $p$ . We prove an equivariant analogue of Adams’ result that $J^{'} = J^{''}$ . We use this to show that the $G$ –connected cover of $Q_{G} S^{0}$ , when completed at $p$ , splits up to homotopy as a product, where one of the factors of the splitting contains the image of the classical equivariant $J$ –homomorphism on equivariant homotopy groups.
