Petrie's conjecture on Pontryagin classes of homotopy complex projective spaces
Let be a -dimensional compact oriented manifold homotopy equivalent to the complex projective space . Suppose that admits a non-trivial -action. Petrie's conjecture. The total Pontryagin class of agrees with that of . The conjecture is known in several special cases, including torus actions and dimensions up to at least , but remains open in full generality.
