For an odd prime $p$, we consider free actions of $(\mathbb{Z}/p)^2$ on $S^{2n-1}\times S^{2n-1}$ given by linear actions of $(\mathbb{Z}/p)^2$ on $\mathbb{R}^{4n}$. Simple examples include a lens space cross a lens space, but $k$-invariant…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We construct a non-abelian extension $\Gamma$ of $S^1$ by $Z/p \times Z/p$, and prove that any finite subgroup of $\Gamma$ acts freely and smoothly on $S^{2p-1} \times S^{2p-1}$. In particular, for each odd prime…

Let $p$ be an odd regular prime, and let $G_p$ denote the extraspecial $p$--group of order $p^{3}$ and exponent $p$. We show that $G_p$ acts freely and smoothly on $S^{2p-1} \times S^{2p-1}$. For $p=3$ we explicitly construct a free smooth…

Let G be a finite group acting freely on a finitistic space X having cohomology type (0, b) (for example, S^n x S^{2n} is a space of type (0, 1) and the one-point union S^n V S^{2n} V S^{3n} is a space of type (0, 0)). It is known that a…

We prove that if $G=(\mathbb{Z}/2)^r$ acts freely and cellularly on a finite-dimensional CW-complex $X$ homotopy equivalent to $\mathbb{R}P ^{n_1} \times \cdots \times \mathbb{R} P ^{n_k}$ with trivial action on the mod-$2$ cohomology, then…

We give a congruence for the quantum invariant of a Z_p-quotient of a 3$-manifold with a Z_{p^2} action. We show the congruence does not hold for quotients of 3--manifolds with a Z_{5}xZ_{5} action.

We investigate equivariant and invariant topological complexity of spheres endowed with smooth non-free actions of cyclic groups of prime order. We prove that semilinear $\mathbb{Z}/p$-spheres have both invariants either $2$ or $3$ and…

The author proposes a method for investigating actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces. Complete homotopy classification of free actions of finite groups on aspherical spaces is obtained. Also there are some results about non-free…

We obtain an explicit description of the endomorphisms of free-abelian by free groups together with a characterization of when they are injective and surjective. As a consequence we see that free-abelian by free groups are Hopfian and not…

In this paper, we determine the homotopy type of the quotient space $\mathcal{Z}_{\Delta^k_m}/S^1_d$, given by the moment-angle complex $\mathcal{Z}_{\Delta_m^k}$ under the diagonal circle action.

We prove that any $\mathbb{Z}^p$-action ${\bf A}$ that acts by automorphisms of $\mathbb{Z}^q$ with a non-zero fixed-point set induces a unipotent factor of the $\mathbb{Z}^p$-action ${\bf A}$ which determines whether the action ${\bf A}$…

We show that for each natural $p\geq 2$, the Lefschetz fixed point theorem is optimal when applied to ${\Bbb Z}^{p}$-actions by homeomorphisms on the three dimensional torus ${\Bbb T}^3$. More precisely, we show that for a spectrally…

The Dold manifold $ P(m,n)$ is the quotient of $S^m \times \mathbb{C}P^n$ by the free involution that acts antipodally on $ S^m $ and by complex conjugation on $ \mathbb{C}P^n $. In this paper, we investigate free actions of finite groups…

In this article we construct examples of non-smoothable $\mathbb{Z}/p$-actions on indefinite spin 4-manifolds with boundary for all primes $p\geq 5$. For example, we show that for each prime $p\geq 5$ and each $n\geq 1$ there exists a…

For $n\geq 2$ we compute the homotopy groups of $(n-1)$-connected closed manifolds of dimension $(2n+1)$. Away from the finite set of primes dividing the order of the torsion subgroup in homology, the $p$-local homotopy groups of $M$ are…

We provide an explicit computation of the cohomology groups (with untwisted coefficients) of semidirect products of the form $\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes \mathbb{Z}/m$ with $m$ free of squares, by means of formulas that only depend on $n$, $m$ and…

We refer to an action of the group Z/p (p here is an odd prime) on a stably complex manifold as simple if all its fixed submanifolds have the trivial normal bundle. The important particular case of a simple action is an action with only…

We consider (non-necessarily free) actions of subgroups $H\subset \mathbb Z_2^m$ on the real moment-angle manifold $\mathbb R\mathcal{Z}_P$ corresponding to a simple convex $n$ polytope $P$ with $m$ facets. The criterion when the orbit…

Let $G$ be a group acting freely, properly discontinuously and cellularly on a finite dimensional $C$W-complex $\Sigma(2n)$ which has the homotopy type of the $2n$- sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$. Then, this action induces an action of the group…

Let $k = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt {-m})$ and $p \geq 3$ split in $k$. We prove new properties of the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions $K/k$, distinct from the cyclotomic one; we do not assume $K/k$ totally ramified, nor the triviality of the $p$-class…
