Popis: It is well known that very special $\Gamma$-spaces and grouplike $\E_\infty$ spaces both model connective spectra. Both these models have equivariant analogues. Shimakawa defined the category of equivariant $\Gamma$-spaces and showed that special equivariant $\Gamma$-spaces determine positive equivariant spectra. Costenoble and Waner showed that grouplike equivariant $\E_\infty$-spaces determine connective equivariant spectra. We show that with suitable model category structures the category of equivariant $\Gamma$-spaces is Quillen equivalent to the category of equivariant $\E_\infty$ spaces. We define the units of equivariant ring spectra in terms of equivariant $\Gamma$-spaces and show that the units of an equivariant ring spectrum determines a connective equivariant spectrum.
Comment: More detailed introduction, added appendix C
