Circle actions on unitary manifolds with discrete fixed point sets

In this paper, we prove various results for circle actions on compact unitary manifolds with discrete fixed point sets, generalizing results for almost complex manifolds.For a circle action on a compact unitary manifold with a discrete fixed point set, we prove relationships between weights at the fixed points.As a consequence, we show that there is a multigraph that encodes the fixed point data (a collection of multisets of weights at the fixed points) of the manifold; this can be used to study unitary S 1 -manifolds in terms of multigraphs.We derive results regarding the first equivariant Chern class, obtaining a lower bound on the number of fixed points under an assumption on a manifold.We determine the Hirzebruch χy-genus of a compact unitary manifold admitting a semi-free S 1 -action, and obtain a lower bound on the number of fixed points.MSC 2020: 58C30, 58J20.
