and
rational homotopy theory (equivariant, stable, parametrized, equivariant & stable, parametrized & stable)
Examples of Sullivan models in rational homotopy theory:
geometric representation theory
representation, 2-representation, ∞-representation
Grothendieck group, lambda-ring, symmetric function, formal group
principal bundle, torsor, vector bundle, Atiyah Lie algebroid
Eilenberg-Moore category, algebra over an operad, actegory, crossed module
Be?linson-Bernstein localization?
group cohomology, nonabelian group cohomology, Lie group cohomology
cohomology with constant coefficients / with a local system of coefficients
differential cohomology
While the rationalization of complex topological K-theory has lost most interesting information (being just a direct sum of ordinary rational cohomology in every even degree) the rationalization of its enhancement to equivariant cohomology – equivariant K-theory – is still a comparatively rich object, controlled by the rational representation theory of the given equivariance group.
Rational equivariant K-theory appears in a variety of different but equivalent concrete incarnations, such as Bredon cohomology with coefficients in the representation ring/class functions or as Chen-Ruan cohomology (here shown over the complex numbers, see Lück-Oliver 01 for discussion over the rational numbers):
Incarnations of rational equivariant K-theory:
As any Chern-Dold character, the equivariant Chern character on equivariant K-theory takes values in its rationalization. Hence, together with the above variety of presentations of rational equivariant K-theory, there is a corresponding variety of realizations of the equivariant Chern character.
