Semifree Actions of Finite Groups on Homotopy Spheres
We show that for any finite group the group of semifree actions on homotopy spheres of some fixed even dimension is finite, provided that the dimension of the fixed point set is greater than 2. The argument shows that for such an action the normal bundle to the fixed point set is equivariantly, stably trivial. 0. Introduction. A group G is said to act semifreely on a space X if every point is e...
متن کاملSome Cyclic Group Actions on Homotopy Spheres
In [4J Orlik defined a free cyclic group action on a homotopy sphere constructed as a Brieskorn manifold and proved the following theorem: THEOREM. Every odd-dimensional homotopy sphere that bounds a para-llelizable manifold admits a free Zp-action for each prime p. On the other hand, it was shown ([3J) that there exists a free Zp-action on a 2n-1 dimensional homotopy sphere so that its orbit s...
متن کاملDecomposability of Homotopy Lens Spaces and Free Cyclic Group Actions on Homotopy Spheres
Let p be a linear Zn action on C and let p also denote the induced Z„ action on S2p~l x D2q, D2p x S2q~l and S2p~l x S2q~l " 1m_1 where p = [m/2] and q = m — p. A free differentiable Zn action (£ , ju) on a homotopy sphere is p-decomposable if there is an equivariant diffeomorphism of (S2p~l x S2q~l, p) such that (S2m_1, ju) is equivalent to (£(*), ¿(*)) where S(*) = S2p_1 x D2q U^, D2p x S...

متن کاملFinite Groups that Admit Kantor Families
The basic problem of interest in this note is: What finite groups G admit a Kantor family (i.e., 4-gonal family) of subgroups? We begin with a survey of the known examples (of the groups G, not of the Kantor families) and then pose the question of whether or not two specific examples are isomorphic. The two groups in question have order q and coexist for q = 3 ≥ 27. Our conjecture had been that...
