Abstract
Let be a compact Lie group acting effectively by isometries on a compact Riemannian manifold with nonempty fixed point set . We say that the action is \emph{fixed point homogeneous} if acts transitively on a normal sphere to some component of , equivalently, if has codimension one in the orbit space of the action. We classify up to diffeomorphism closed, simply connected 5-manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature and an effective fixed point homogeneous isometric action of a compact Lie group.
