Review text

The author introduces the notions of \(G\)-Wecken complexes and \(G\)-path fields which generalize those of nonequivariant ones, \(G\) a finite group. He shows that there exists a nonsingular simple \(G\)-path field on a finite \(G\)-Wecken complex \(X\) if and only if the equivariant Euler characteristic \(\chi_ G(X)\) vanishes, where \(\chi_ G(X)\) is defined in terms of the Euler characteristics of various parts of \(X\) having one orbit type. As an application he gives a sufficient condition for a nonempty closed invariant subset of \(X\) to be the fixed point set of a \(G\)-deformation of \(X\).
