On the minimal dimension of a homology sphere on which a finite group acts
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 March 2008
Abstract
We show that the minimal dimension of a faithful action of a metacyclic group , for primes p and q, on a homology sphere coincides with the minimal dimension of a faithful linear action on a sphere; as a consequence, we obtain the analogous result for various finite simple groups.
