Fixed point properties of nilpotent group actions on 1-arcwise connected continua

Abstract: We show that every continuous action of a nilpotent group on a 1-arcwise connected continuum has at least one fixed point.

“…However this is not true even for actions on dendrites. Since solvable groups are amenable we have by a note in [22] that there is an amenable group action on a dendrite (even on an arc) without a fixed point. On the other hand, it was proved that in the case of countable amenable group actions on a dendrite [23], or even on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum [24] there is always a fixed point or a 2-periodic point.…”

“…Moreover we prove that a continuous action of a compact and commutative semigroup on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum has a fixed point too. This should be compared with the main result of [22] by which every nilpotent group action on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum has a fixed point.…”

“…For groups actions on graphs and dendrites, several results related to minimality, sensitivity and existence of global fixed points have been obtained by some authors (see e.g., [23], [17], [24], [25]). For rigidity results for actions on dendrites, see [9].…”
