Rank 3 finite p-group actions on products of spheres

Abstract Let $p$ be an odd prime. We prove that every rank 3 finite $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of three spheres. To construct this action, we first prove a generalization of a theorem of Lück and Oliver on constructions of $G$-equivariant vector bundles. We also give some other...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Let $p$ be an odd prime. We prove that every rank 3 finite $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of three spheres. To construct this action, we first prove a generalization of a theorem of Lück and Oliver on constructions of $G$-equivariant vector bundles. We also give some other applications of this generalization.
