Abstract

Let X be a space and write LX for its free loop space equipped with the action of the circle group T given by dilation. We compute the equivariant cohomology H*(LXhT; Z/p) as a module over H*(BT; Z/p) when X=CPr for any positive integer r and any prime number p. The computation implies that the associated mod p Serre spectral sequence collapses from the E3-page.
