The author studies the fundamental group of a positively curved manifold \(M\) which admits a \(\pi_1\)-invariant isometric \(T^k\)-action. This is a second paper of the author on this subject. The author investigates relations between properties of a \(T^k\)-action and the structure of the fundamental group of \(M\). The main theorem of this paper is the following Synge-type result: Let \(M\) be a closed manifold of positive sectional curvature on which a torus \(T^k\) (\(k\geqslant 1\)) acts isometrically. If \(\phi\) is an isometry on \(M\) commuting with the \(T^k\)-action, then \(\phi\) preserves some \(T^k\)-orbit which is a circle. Basing on this theorem the author proves also several results on the fundamental groups. Some of them are generalizations of the main results from the earlier papers of the author.
