We will prove the following theorems. The first theorem posits the existence of a fixed point for the actions of nilpotent Lie groups on nonpositively curved compact manifolds. The second theorem states that actions of solvable Lie groups…

If $G$ is a finite $\ell$-group acting on an affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$ over a finite field $K$ of cardinality prime to $\ell$, Serre has shown that there exists a rational fixed point. We generalize this to the case where $K$ is a…

For a finitely generated free group F_n, of rank at least 2, any finite subgroup of Out(F_n) can be realized as a group of automorphisms of a graph with fundamental group F_n. This result, known as Out(F_n) realization, was proved by…

In this paper, we show that if a group acts isometrically on a good hyperbolic space of finite volume entropy through a non-elementary action, then it admits an affine action on some $L^p$ -space with an unbounded orbit for sufficiently…

We show that every real analytic action of a connected supersoluble Lie group on a compact surface with nonzero Euler characteristic has a fixed point. This implies that E. Lima's fixed point free $C^{\infty}$ action on $S^2$ of the affine…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of regular action of any abelian subgroup G of $Diff^{1}(C^n) on C^n (i.e. the closure of every orbit of G in some open set is a topological sub-manifold of C^n). We prove that if G fixes 0 and…

In this note, we prove: \medskip \noindent {\bf Theorem A:} \emph{ There is a fixed constant $C$ such that for any positive integer $n$ and prime $p$, every finite subgroup $G$ of order coprime to $p$ of ${\rm GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ has an…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group acted on faithfully by a group $A$. We prove that if $A$ fixes every element of order dividing $p$ ($4$ if $p=2$) in a specified subgroup of $G$, then both $A$ and $[G,A]$ behave regularly, that is the elements…

Let a real Lie group $G$ have a $C^\infty$ action on a real manifold $M$. Assume every nontrivial element of $G$ has nowhere dense fixpoint set in $M$. First, we show, in every frame bundle, except possibly the $0$th, that each stabilizer…

A group of bijections G acting on a set X is said with fixed points (abbreviated as gaf from the french "groupe {\`a} points fixes") if any element of G has at least one fixed point in X. The G group is said with a common fixed point…

It is shown, for a given graph group $G$, that the fixed point subgroup Fix$\,\varphi$ is finitely generated for every endomorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for…

Let $p$ be a prime number. A longstanding conjecture asserts that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is an odd order finite non-abelian monolithic $p$-group such…

In this series of two articles, we prove that every action of a finite group $G$ on a finite and contractible $2$-complex has a fixed point. The proof goes by constructing a nontrivial representation of the fundamental group of each of the…

The main result of this paper is the following theorem. Let q be a prime, A an elementary abelian group of order q^3. Suppose that A acts as a coprime group of automorphisms on a profinite group G in such a manner that C_G(a)' is periodic…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with kernel $F$ and complement $H$ such that the fixed-point subgroup of $F$ is trivial: $C_G(F)=1$. In this situation various properties of $G$ are shown to be…

Given an action of a Compact Quantum Group (CQG) on a finite dimensional Hilbert space, we can construct an action on the associated Cuntz algebra. We study the fixed point algebra of this action, using Kirchberg classification results.…

Let $A$ be a finite nilpotent group acting fixed point freely on the finite (solvable) group $G$ by automorphisms. It is conjectured that the nilpotent length of $G$ is bounded above by $\ell(A)$, the number of primes dividing the order of…

We consider the action of $p$-toral subgroups of $U(n)$ on the unitary partition complex $\mathcal L_n$. We show that if $H\subseteq U(n)$ is $p$-toral and has noncontractible fixed points on $\mathcal L_n$, then the image of $H$ in the…

We consider a purely algebraic result. Then given a circle or cyclic group of prime order action on a manifold, we will use it to estimate the lower bound of the number of fixed points. We also give an obstruction to the existence of…

We use the notion of fixity for representations of finite groups to construct free and smooth actions on products of spheres. In particular we show that a finite p-group (for p>3) will act freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres if…
