Regular cyclic actions on complex projective space with codimension-two fixed points

Abstract

AbstractIfM2nis a cohomologyCPnandPis an odd prime, letGpbe the cyclic group of orderp. A TypeI I0Gpaction onM2nis an action with fixed point set a codimension-2 submanifold and an isolated point. A TypeI I0Gpaction is standard if it is regular and the degree of the fixed codimension-2 submanifold is one. If n is odd and M2nadmits a standardGpaction of TypeI I0, then every TypeI I0GpactionM2nis standard and so, if n is odd,CPnadmits aGpaction of TypeI I0if and only if the action is standard.
