Every continuous action of a compact group on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum has a fixed point (Q721209)

The main results. \(1)\) Let \(G\) be a group every element of which is contained in a compact subgroup. Then every continuous action of \(G\) on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum has a fixed point. Moreover, the set of fixed points of the action is an arcwise connected continuum. \(2)\) Let \(G\) be a compact commutative semigroup. Then every continuous action of \(G\) on a uniquely arcwise connected continuum or on a tree-like continuum has a fixed point.
