Differentiable Actions on 2 « - Spheres
Introduction. It is shown in [4] that there is an infinite family of semifree Zm actions on odd dimensional homotopy spheres. There is also an infinite family of semifree S actions on odd dimensional homotopy spheres (see [2], [5]). On the other hand, it is announced in [2] that there are only finitely many inequivalent semifree S actions on even dimensional homotopy spheres. Hence it is intere...
متن کاملDifferentiable Z9 Actions on Homotopy Spheres
The results of [4] proved that many exotic spheres do not admit smooth actions of relatively high-dimensional compact Lie groups (all group actions considered in this paper are assumed to be effective). It was clear that stronger results should hold in certain cases, and this was confirmed in [5]. A notable feature of [5] is the use of nonexistence theorems for certain smooth circle actions to ...
متن کاملGroup actions on homology spheres
This can be stated in a more symmetric manner. Let r be any positive integer not equal to 3. Then n acts freely and homologically trivially on Z r i ff n acts freely and homologically trivially on SL In fact, there is a one-to-one correspondence between such actions on U and such actions on S r. (The classification of such actions is discussed in w In addition the actions constructed have the p...
متن کاملPseudofree Group Actions on Spheres
R. S. Kulkarni showed that a finite group acting pseudofreely, but not freely, preserving orientation, on an even-dimensional sphere (or suitable sphere-like space) is either a periodic group acting semifreely with two fixed points, a dihedral group acting with three singular orbits, or one of the polyhedral groups, occurring only in dimension 2. It is shown here that the dihedral group does no...
متن کاملDifferentiable pseudo-free circle actions.
The circle group G is said to act pseudofreely if it is not free and if every orbit is one-dimensional and if the isotropy group is the identity except on isolated exceptional orbits where the isotropy group is the finite cyclic group Z(k), k > 1. We consider differentiable actions of this kind on homotopy seven spheres and classify all such actions. As a corollary, it follows that there can be...
