Abstract

Let Mn{\frak M}_n be the set of equivariant unoriented cobordism classes of all nn-dimensional 2-torus manifolds, where an nn-dimensional 2-torus manifold MM is a smooth closed manifold of dimension nn with effective smooth action of a rank nn 2-torus group (Z2)n({\Bbb Z}_2)^n. Then Mn{\frak M}_n forms an abelian group with respect to disjoint union. This paper determines the group structure of Mn{\frak M}_n and shows that each class of Mn{\frak M}_n contains a small cover as its representative in the case n=3n=3.
