    Let X be a closed 1-connectd smooth oriented G-manifold with the G-fixed set \(\{x_ 1,...,x_ n\}\) and oriented tangential G-representations \(V_ i\) at \(x_ i\). The author studies the following problem: Given oriented G-modules \(W_ 1,...,W_ n\), find sufficient conditions for the existence of a closed 1-connected oriented G-manifold Y and a degree one G-map \(f: Y\to X\) such that (i) \(f_*: H_*(Y;\Lambda)\to H_*(X;\Lambda)\) is an isomorphism \((\Lambda ={\mathbb{Z}}\) or \({\mathbb{Q}})\); and (ii) Y has G-fixed set \(\{y_ 1,...,y_ n\}\) such that \(f(y_ i)=x_ i\) and the tangential representations at \(y_ i\) is \(W_ i\), \(i=1,...,n\). Under several technical hypotheses, the author solves this problem. The methods and the arguments are similar to \textit{T. Petrie} [Adv. Math. 46, 3-14 (1982; Zbl 0502.57021), and Math. Proc. Camb. Philos. Soc. 94, 61-99 (1983; Zbl 0526.57026)].
