Let [italic capital]G be a compact Lie group, [italic capitals]EG a contractible free [italic capital]G-space and let [italic capitals]E~G be the unreduced suspension of [italic capitals]EG with one of the cone points as basepoint. Let [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G be a [italic capital]G-spectrum. Let [italic capital]X+ denote the disjoint union of [italic capital]X and a [italic capital]G-fixed basepoint. Define the [italic capital]G-spectra [italic]f([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]EG+, [italic]c([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G), and [italic]t([italic]k[subscript italic capital]G)* = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]E~G. The last of these is the [italic capital]G-spectrum representing the generalized Tate homology and cohomology theories associated to [italic]k[subscript italic capital]G. Here [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) is the function space spectrum. The authors develop the properties of these theories, illustrating the manner in which they generalize the classical Tate-Swan theories.
