makeRealRepresentationMackeyFunctor(p)The real representation Mackey functor of a group $G$ is defined by sending $G/H$ to the Grothendieck group of real orthogonal $G$-representations. The transfer and restriction come from induction and restriction of $G$-representations. When $G$ is a cyclic group of prime order p, with p odd, this admits a nice form. The underlying module is given by $\ZZ$ with trivial conjugation action, while the fixed module is $\mathbb{Z}\{\lambda_{0},\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_{(p-1)/2}\}$. The element $\lambda_i$ for $i>0$ represents the two dimensional real representation given by rotation by $(2\pi i)/p$ radians. The element $\lambda_0$ represents the trivial one dimensional representation. Restriction is defined as \[\text{res}_e^{C_p} \colon \mathbb{Z}\{\lambda_{0},\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_{(p-1)/2}\} \to \mathbb{Z}\] by sending \[\lambda_i\mapsto \begin{cases} 2 & i>0 \\ 1 & i=0. \end{cases} \] Transfer is of the form \[\text{tr}_e^{C_p} \colon \mathbb{Z} \to \mathbb{Z}\{\lambda_{0},\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_{(p-1)/2}\}\] by sending $x\mapsto x\cdot \left(\sum^{(p-1)/2}_{0} \lambda_i\right)$.
