Fusion rules of equivariantizations of fusion categories

Abstract

We determine the fusion rules of the equivariantization of a fusion category \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\begin{document}${\mathcal {C}}$\end{document}C under the action of a finite group G in terms of the fusion rules of \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\begin{document}${\mathcal {C}}$\end{document}C and group-theoretical data associated to the group action. As an application we obtain a formula for the fusion rules in an equivariantization of a pointed fusion category in terms of group-theoretical data. This entails a description of the fusion rules in any braided group-theoretical fusion category.
