Kosniowski's conjecture and weights

Differential Geometry 2019-01-01 v1

Abstract

The conjecture of Kosniowski asserts that if the circle acts on a compact unitary manifold MM with a non-empty fixed point set and MM does not bound a unitary manifold equivariantly, then the dimension of the manifold is bounded above by a linear function on the number of fixed points. We confirm the conjecture for almost complex manifolds under an assumption on weights. For instance, we confirm the conjecture if there is one type ±a\pm a of weights, or there are two types ±a\pm a, ±b\pm b of weights.
