Abstract: We will discuss the restrictions on the fixed point subspaces of finite group actions on homology spheres. In particular I will introduce the Borel-Smith conditions on dimension functions and explain the main ideas  of the paper by Dotzel-Hamrick on "p-Group Actions on  Homology Spheres."
