Large and iterated finite group actions on manifolds admitting non-zero degree maps to nilmanifolds
Jordi Daura Serrano
Let M be a closed connected oriented manifold admitting a non-zero degree map to a nilmanifold. In the first part of the paper we study effective finite group actions on M. In part…

Actions of large finite groups on aspherical manifolds
Jordi Daura Serrano
In this paper we study actions of finite groups on closed connected aspherical manifolds. Under some assumptions on the outer automorphism group of the fundamental group of a close…
