Finite Group Actions on Kervaire Manifolds
Let M K be the Kervaire manifold: a closed, piecewise linear (PL) manifold with Kervaire invariant 1 and the same homology as the product S × S of spheres. We show that a finite group of odd order acts freely on M K if and only if it acts freely on S × S. If MK is smoothable, then each smooth structure on MK admits a free smooth involution. If k 6= 2 − 1, then M K does not admit any free TOP in...
متن کامل3-manifolds Which Admit Finite Group Actions
We prove several results which support the following conjectures: (1) Any smooth action of a finite group on a geometric 3-manifold can be conjugated to preserve the geometric structure. (2) Every irreducible closed 3-manifold M with infinite nx(M) is finitely covered by a Haken 3-manifold.
متن کاملHomologically Trivial Group Actions on 4-Manifolds
In this paper we investigate pseudofree homologically trivial actions of arbitrary finite groups on simply connected 4-manifolds. It turns out that there are surprisingly strong restrictions on the groups and on the actions, especially when one considers the fact that any finite group can act, even freely, on some simply connected 4-manifold. Recall that a finite group action is free if no nont...
متن کاملGROUP ACTIONS ON SPIN MANIFOLDS(i)
A generalization of the theorem of V. Bargmann concerning unitary and ray representations is obtained and is applied to the general problem of lifting group actions associated to the extension of structure of a bundle. In particular this is applied to the Poincare group ? of a Lorentz manifold M. It is shown that the topological restrictions needed to lift an action in ? are more stringent than...
متن کاملHandlebody-preserving Finite Group Actions on Haken Manifolds with Heegaard Genus Two - Ii
Let M be a closed orientable 3-manifold of Heegaard genus two with a non-trivial JSJ-decomposition and G be a finite group of orientation-preserving smooth actions on M which preserves each handlebody of Heegaard splitting and each piece of the JSJ-decomposition of M . Let (V1, V2; F ) be the Heegaard splitting and ∪Ti be the union of the JSJ-tori. In this article, we prove that G ∼= Z2 or D2 i...
