- Abstract : Let G be an algebraic group acting on a scheme X. Then its equivariant algebraic K-theory maps into global invariant functions on a certain associated fixed-point scheme, which is of independent interest in geometric representation theory. After recalling this comparison and its relationship to equivariant Hochschild homology, I will explain what simplifies in characteristic p after perfection. The resulting map is an equivalence in interesting cases, such as torus-equivariant algebraic K-theory of split toric varieties or affine Schubert varieties in the perfect GL_n-affine Grassmannian.
