The main result is that a finitely dominated manifold W of dimension > 4 admits a cocompact, free, discontinuous action by the infinite dihedral group D_\\infty if and only if W is the infinite cyclic cover of a free C_2-manifold M such that M admits a C_2-equivariant manifold approximate fibration to S^1. The novelty in this setting is the existence of codimension-one, invariant submanifolds of M and W. Along the way, we develop an equivariant sucking principle for certain orthogonal actions of finite groups on Euclidean space.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-09-22T23:51:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57N15", "57S30" ], "keywords": [ "dihedral manifold approximate fibrations", "infinite cyclic cover", "infinite dihedral group", "unit circle", "equivariant sucking principle" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 39, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0903.1094H" } } }
