$\Gamma$-equivariant (Definition)

Let $\Gamma$ be a compact Lie group acting linearly on $V$ and let $g$ be a mapping defined as $g\colon V \to V$ Then $g$ is $\Gamma$ equivariant if $$g(\gamma v)=\gamma g(v)$$ for all $\gamma \in \Gamma$ and all $v \in V$
Therefore if $g$ commutes with $\Gamma$ then $g$ is $\Gamma$ equivariant.
