Topological Obstructions to Certain Lie Group Actions on Manifolds
Given a smooth closed S1-manifold M , this article studies the extent to which certain numbers of the form (f∗ (x) · P · C) [M ] are determined by the fixed-point set MS 1 , where f : M → K (π1 (M) , 1) classifies the universal cover of M , x ∈ H∗ (π1 (M) ;Q), P is a polynomial in the Pontrjagin classes of M , and C is in the subalgebra of H∗ (M ;Q) generated by H2 (M ;Q). When MS 1 = ∅, variou...
متن کاملNon - Abelian Monopoles on Four - Manifolds
We present a non-abelian generalization of Witten monopole equations and we analyze the associated moduli problem, which can be regarded as a generalization of Donaldson theory. The moduli space of solutions for SU(2) monopoles on Kähler manifolds is discussed. We also construct, using the Mathai-Quillen formalism, the topological quantum field theory corresponding to the new moduli problem. Th...
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 کاملSpin and abelian electromagnetic duality on four - manifolds
We investigate the electromagnetic duality properties of an abelian gauge theory on a compact oriented four-manifold by analysing the behaviour of a generalised partition function under modular transformations of the dimensionless coupling constants. The true partition function is invariant under the full modular group but the generalised partition function exhibits more complicated behaviour d...
متن کاملTHE AUTOMORPHISM GROUP OF NON-ABELIAN GROUP OF ORDER p^4
Let G be a finite non-abelian group of order p^4 . In this paper we give a structure theorem for the Sylow p-subgroup, Aut_p(G) , of the automorphism group of G.
