The Burnside category is a concept in category theory that arises from the study of finite group actions and equivariant topology. It is named after the mathematician William Burnside, known for his work in group theory. In a general sense, the Burnside category, denoted as \(\mathcal{B}(G)\), is constructed from a finite group \(G\).
