Abstract

In this paper, we study the fundamental groups of closed manifolds of positive sectional curvature which admit compatible local isometric torus Tk-actions. We explore relations between basic properties of an isometric Tk-action and the structure of the fundamental group of M. Using these relations, we prove several results on the fundamental groups.
