When /: M —• M is a self-map of a compact manifold and dim M > 3, a classical theorem of Wecken states that / is homotopic to a fixed point free map if, and only if, the Nielsen number n(f) of / is zero. When M is simply connected, and dim M > 3 the NASC becomes L(f) = 0, where L(f) is the Lefschetz number of/. An equivariant version of the latter result for G-maps /: Λί —• Λf, where M is a compact G-manifold, is due to D. Wilczyriski, under the assumption that M H is simply connected of dimension > 3 for any isotropy subgroup H with finite Weyl group WH. Under these assumptions, / is G -homotopic to a fixed point free map if, and only if, L(f H ) = 0 for any isotropy subgroup H {WH finite), where f H = f\M H and M H represents those elements of M fixed by H. A special case of this result was also obtained independently by A. Vidal via equivariant obstruction theory. In this note we prove the analogous equivariant result without assuming that the M H are simply connected, assuming that n(f H ) = 0, for all H with WH finite. There is also a codimension condition. Here is the main result.
