Abstract

Let a real Lie group GG have a CC^\infty action on a real manifold MM. Assume every nontrivial element of GG has nowhere dense fixpoint set in MM. First, we show, in every frame bundle, except possibly the 00th, that each stabilizer admits no nontrivial compact subgroups. Second, we show that, if GG is connected, then there is a dense open GG-invariant subset of some higher order frame bundle of MM such that, for any point xx in that subset, the stabilizer in GG of xx is a discrete, finitely-generated, free-Abelian, central subgroup of GG. We derive several corollaries of these two results.
