Abstract:
In this paper we obtain conditions for a Whitney sum of three vector bundles over a closed manifold, , to be the fixed data of a -action; these conditions yield the fact that if is the fixed data of a -action, where is the trivial one dimensional bundle, then the same is true for . The results obtained, together with techniques previously developed, are used to obtain, up to bordism, all possible -actions fixing the disjoint union of an even projective space and a point.
