Equivariant K-theory for Actions with Maximal Rank Isotropy by Aljandro Adem

Let G denote a compact connected Lie group with torsion-free fundamental group acting on a compact space X such that all the isotropy subgroups are connected and of maximal rank. Let T be a maximal torus with Weyl group W. We derive conditions on the induced action of W on the fixed-point set of T which imply that the equivariant K-theory of X is a free module over the representation ring of G. This is joint work with J.M.Gomez.
