Abstract: In this paper, we show that if G is a finite p-group (p prime) acting by automorphisms on a $delta$-hyperbolic Poincare Duality group, then the fixed subgroup is a Poincare Duality group over Z/p. We also provide examples to show that the fixed subgroup might not even be a Duality group over Z.
