Abstract

We prove a Knaster-type result for orbits of the group (Z2)k(Z_2)^k in S2k1S^{2^k-1}, calculating the Euler class obstruction. Among the consequences are: a result about inscribing skew crosspolytopes in hypersurfaces in R2k\mathbb R^{2^k}, and a result about equipartition of a measures in R2k\mathbb R^{2^k} by (Z2)k+1(Z_2)^{k+1}-symmetric convex fans.
