Abstract: | We prove that, under certain conditions, if a compact connected Lie group acts effectively on a closed manifold, then there is no fixed point. Because two of the main conditions are satisfied by any Hamiltonian action on a closed symplectic manifold, the theorem applies nicely to such actions. The method of proof, however, is cohomological; and so the result applies more generally. |
