According to the work of Laitinen, Morimoto, Oliver and Pawal{}owski, a finite group $G$ has a smooth effective one fixed point action on some sphere if and only if $G$ is an Oliver group. For some finite Oliver groups $G$ of order up to $216$, and for $G=A_5times C_n$ for $n=3,5,7$, we present a strategy of excluding of smooth effective one fixed point $G$-actions on low-dimensional spheres.

Denote by $DC(M)_0$ the identity component of the group of compactly supported $C^infty$ diffeomorphisms of a connected $C^infty$ manifold $M$, and by $HR$ the group of the homeomorphisms of $R$. We show that if $M$ is a closed manifold which fibers over $S^m$ ($mgeq 2$), then any homomorphism from $DC(M)_0$ to $HR$ is trivial.
If $G$ is a free product of finite groups, let $Sigma Aut_1(G)$ denote all (necessarily symmetric) automorphisms of $G$ that do not permute factors in the free product. We show that a McCullough-Miller [D. McCullough and A. Miller, {em Symmetric Automorphisms of Free Products}, Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 122 (1996), no. 582] and Guti{e}rrez-Krsti{c} [M. Guti{e}rrez and S. Krsti{c}, {em Normal forms for the group of basis-conjugating automorphisms of a free group}, International Journal of Algebra and Computation 8 (1998) 631-669] derived (also see Bogley-Krsti{c} [W. Bogley and S. Krsti{c}, {em String groups and other subgroups of $Aut(F_n)$}, preprint] space of pointed trees is an $underline{E} Sigma Aut_1(G)$-space for these groups.
We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated group of subexponential growth and $X$ is a Suslinian continuum, then any action of $G$ on $X$ cannot be expansive.
We establish lower bounds on the dimensions in which arithmetic groups with torsion can act on acyclic manifolds and homology spheres. The bounds rely on the existence of elementary p-groups in the groups concerned. In some cases, including Sp(2n,Z), the bounds we obtain are sharp: if X is a generalized Z/3-homology sphere of dimension less than 2n-1 or a Z/3-acyclic Z/3-homology manifold of dimension less than 2n, and if n geq 3, then any action of Sp(2n,Z) by homeomorphisms on X is trivial; if n = 2, then every action of Sp(2n,Z) on X factors through the abelianization of Sp(4,Z), which is Z/2.
Let $G$ be connected nilpotent Lie group acting locally on a real surface $M$. Let $varphi$ be the local flow on $M$ induced by a $1$-parameter subgroup. Assume $K$ is a compact set of fixed points of $varphi$ and $U$ is a neighborhood of $K$ containing no other fixed points. Theorem: If the Dold fixed-point index of $varphi_t|U$ is nonzero for sufficiently small $t>0$, then ${rm Fix} (G) cap K e emptyset$.
