Research Abstract

For a finite group G, the subset of real representation ring consisting of all differences of tangential representations at fixed points of smooth G-actions with exactly two fixed points on spheres is called the Smith set of G. In this research, we computed the Smith sets for many finite groups G.Furthermore, we found counterexamples to Laitinen's Conjecture on the Smith sets as well as a family of finite groups for which the conjecture is valid, which contributed to development of the study of Smith's problem.
