Actions Of Sl(N,Z) On Homology Spheres, Kamlesh Parwani Apr 2005

Actions Of Sl(N,Z) On Homology Spheres, Kamlesh Parwani

Kamlesh Parwani

Any continuous action of SL(n,Z), where n > 2, on a r-dimensional mod 2 homology sphere factors through a finite group action if r < n - 1. In particular, any continuous action of SL(n+2,Z) on the n-dimensional sphere factors through a finite group action.


Monotone Periodic Orbits For Torus Homeomorphisms, Kamlesh Parwani Jan 2005

Monotone Periodic Orbits For Torus Homeomorphisms, Kamlesh Parwani

Kamlesh Parwani

Let f be a homeomorphism of the torus isotopic to the identity and suppose that there exists a periodic orbit with a non-zero rotation vector (p/q,r/q), then f has a topologically monotone periodic orbit with the same rotation vector.
