Abstract

In {[}2], T. Bartsch provided detailed and broad exposition of a numerical cohomological index theory for G-spaces, known as the length, where G is a compact Lie group. We present the length of G-spaces which are cohomology spheres and G is a p-torus or a torus group, where p is a prime. As a consequence, we obtain BorsukUlam and Bourgin-Yang type theorems in this context. A sharper version of the Bourgin-Yang theorem for topological manifolds is also proved. Also, we give some general results regarding the upper and lower bound for the length. (c) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (AU)
