Abstract: Abstract The equivariant K-theory was developed by R. Thomason in [21]. Let an algebraic group G act on a variety X over a field F. We consider G-modules, i.e., $$ \mathcal{O}_{X} $$ -modules over X that are equipped with an G-action compatible with one on X. As in the non-equivariant case there are two categories: the abelian category ℳ(G; X) of coherent G-modules and the full subcategory $$ \mathcal{P}(G;X) $$ consisting of locally free $$ \mathcal{O}_{X} $$ -modules. The groups K' n (G; X) and K n (G; X) are defined as the K-groups of these two categories respectively.
