Spin torus-action conjecture for simply connected manifolds

Let n1n\geq 1, and let MM be a closed, spin, simply connected (n+2)(n+2)-manifold with an effective TnT^n-action.

Spin torus-action conjecture. The manifold MM is homeomorphic to one of S3S^3, S4S^4, S5S^5, or

#i=2nmiSi×Sn+2i.\#^{n}_{i=2}m_i\cdot S^i\times S^{n+2-i}.

This is a purely topological classification statement underlying the proposed refinement of the domain-of-outer-communication conjecture. The supplied context says that the refined conjecture is verified in the relevant dimensions n=2,3,4n=2,3,4 under the stated spin condition, but does not establish the claim for all n1n\geq 1.
