Abstract:

Let $G$ be a finite group acting freely in a CW-complex $\Sigma ^{m}$ which is a homotopy $m$-dimensional sphere and let $f:\Sigma ^{m} \to Y$ be a map of $\Sigma ^{m}$ to a finite $k$-dimensional CW-complex $Y$. We show that if $m\geq \vert G\vert k$, then $f$ has an $(H,G)$-coincidence for some nontrivial subgroup $H$ of $G$.
