Signatures and Higher Signatures of S1-Quotients
Abstract
We define and study the signature, A-hat genus and higher signatures of the quotient space of an S1-action on a closed oriented manifold. We give applications to questions of positive scalar curvature and to an Equivariant Novikov Conjecture.
