چکیده

Let G = Z/ps ( p an odd prime). We show that restricting the local representations in a unitary G-manifold M with isolated fixed points results in severe restrictions on the number of fixed points (counted with the sign of their orientation), paralleling results obtained by Conner and Floyd in the case G = Z/p . Specifically, the number of noncancelling fixed points is either zero or divisible by p" , where n —» oo as the dimension of M —» oo . This result also parallels phenomena in framed G-manifolds, as discussed by the first author in a previous paper. Introduction Conner and Floyd proved the following result in [CF, 40.1]. Let G — Z/p ( p an odd prime) and let M be a smooth unitary «-dimensional G-manifold with isolated fixed points. Assume also that the local representations normal to the fixed points coincide. Then if we denote the collection of fixed points, counted with orientation, by Y, one has [Y] e p Q0 , where Q0 = Z is zero dimensional unitary bordism, and where a(n) —* oo as n —> oo . In particular, there cannot exist any unitary G-manifold with a single fixed point. Here we show that the Conner and Floyd result generalizes directly to the case G = Zjps for arbitrary s. (The precise result is stated in §2.) Note that the generalization follows easily by induction on the order of G if either the local representation possesses a nonzero fixed subspace by some nontrivial subgroup K or if the manifold M in question contains only isolated fixed points by G ; in the first instance one can restrict to the fixed set by K, and in the second instance one can regard M as a Af-manifold. The general case, in which M has isolated G-orbits of the form G/K for K ^ G, is far less tractable. The analogous result for framed G-manifold appears in fact to require the full force of the Segal conjecture [Wl]. In the absence of an analogous result for unitary G-bordism, our proof here makes use of the eta invariant of Atiyah-PatodiSinger [APS], and uses the combinatorial formulas of Gilkey [Gl].

Ring structures of mod p equivariant cohomology rings and ring homomorphisms between them

In this paper, we consider a class of connected oriented (with respect to Z/p) closed G-manifolds with a non-empty finite fixed point set, each of which is G-equivariantly formal, where G = Z/p and p is an odd prime. Using localization theorem and equivariant index, we give an explicit description of the mod p equivariant cohomology ring of such a G-manifold in terms of algebra. This makes ...

Topological invariants of generalized Kummer manifolds

Let L ⊆ C be a lattice and consider the compact complex torus XL = C/L. Let Γ 6 Aut(L) ∩ SL2m C be a (finite) group of automorphisms of L whose action on C is semifree (i.e., free away from 0). X L consists of finitely many isolated fixed points, so the orbifold XL/Γ has finitely many isolated singularities. We can resolve these singularities by ‘blowing up’ each of the singular points. In fact...

Multiple point of self-transverse immesions of certain manifolds

In this paper we will determine the multiple point manifolds of certain self-transverse immersions in Euclidean spaces. Following the triple points, these immersions have a double point self-intersection set which is the image of an immersion of a smooth 5-dimensional manifold, cobordant to Dold manifold $V^5$ or a boundary. We will show there is an immersion of $S^7times P^2$ in $mathbb{R}^{1...

Manifolds with Fundamental Group a Generalized Free Product. I

This announcement describes new methods in the study and classification of differentiable, PI or topological manifolds with infinite fundamental group. If, for example, Y + l is a closed manifold with n^ = Gx *H G2, n> 4, there is a decomposition Y~YtUx Y2 with ir1(Yx) = G1,irl(Yl) = G2, itt(X) = H. For large classes of fundamental groups, the codimension one splitting theorems of [C3], extendi...
