An equivariant Poincaré series of filtrations and monodromy zeta functions

We define a new equivariant (with respect to a finite group $G$ action) version of the Poincaré series of a multi-index filtration as an element of the power series ring ${\widetilde{A}}(G)[[t_1, \ldots, t_r]]$ for a certain modification ${\widetilde{A}}(G)$ of the Burnside ring of the group $G$. We give a formula for this Poincaré series of a collection of plane valuations in terms of a $G$-resolution of the collection. We show that, for filtrations on the ring of germs of functions in two variables defined by the curve valuations corresponding to the irreducible components of a plane curve singularity defined by a $G$-invariant function germ, in the majority of cases this equivariant Poincaré series determines the corresponding equivariant monodromy zeta functions defined earlier.
