Abstract
An invariant q-sphere for (T, Σn) is an embedded (locally flat in the p.l. case) homotopy sphere Σq ⊂ Σn which is invariant under T. An invariant Σq for (T, Σn) is called characteristic if there is an equivariant homotopy equivalence f: (T, Σn) → (a, Sn), (a = antipodal map) such that f is t-regular at Sq ⊂Sn and f −1 (Sq) = Σq.
