Abstract: Ma~n'e (1979) proved that if a compact metric space admits an expansive homeomorphism then it is finite dimensional. We generalize this theorem to multiparameter actions. The generalization involves mean dimension theory, which counts "averaged dimension" of a dynamical system. We prove that if T:mathbbZkimesXoX is expansive and if R:mathbbZk1imesXoX commutes with T then R has finite mean dimension. When k=1, this statement reduces to Ma~{n}'{e}'s theorem. We also study several related issues, especially the connection with entropy theory.
