Abstract

Consider a circle action on an 8-dimensional compact almost complex manifold with 4 fixed points. To the author's knowledge, S2×S6S^2 \times S^6 is the only known example of such a manifold. In this paper, we prove that if the circle acts on an 8-dimensional compact almost complex manifold MM with 4 fixed points, all the Chern numbers and the Hirzebruch χy\chi_y-genus of MM agree with those of S2×S6S^2 \times S^6. In particular, MM is unitary cobordant to S2×S6S^2 \times S^6.
