Fixed points for reductive group actions on acyclic varieties
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 45 (1995) no. 5, pp. 1249-1281.

Soit X une variété complexe, affine et lisse, qui, considérée comme variété analytique, a la -cohomologie singulière d’un point. Supposons que G soit un groupe complexe algébrique agissant algébriquement sur X. Nos résultats principaux sont les suivants : Si G est semisimple, la fibre générique de l’application quotient π:XX//G contient une orbite dense. Si G est connexe et réductif, l’action a des points fixes si dim X//G3.

Let X be a smooth, affine complex variety, which, considered as a complex manifold, has the singular -cohomology of a point. Suppose that G is a complex algebraic group acting algebraically on X. Our main results are the following: if G is semi-simple, then the generic fiber of the quotient map π:XX//G contains a dense orbit. If G is connected and reductive, then the action has fixed points if dim X//G3.
