Abstract

Manevitz and Weinberger (1996) proved that the existence of effective $K$-Lipschitz $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$-actions implies the existence of effective $K$-Lipschitz $\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}$-actions for all compact connected manifolds with metrics, where $K$ is a fixed Lipschitz constant. The $\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}$-actions were constructed from suitable actions of a sufficiently large hyperfinite cyclic group $\text{prescript}\ast \mathbb{Z}/\gamma \text{prescript}\ast \mathbb{Z}$ in the sense of nonstandard analysis. By modifying their construction, we prove that for every direct system $(\mathrm{\Lambda },G_{\lambda },i_{\lambda \mu })$ of torsion groups with monomorphisms, the existence of effective $K$-Lipschitz $G_{\lambda }$-actions implies the existence of effective $K$-Lipschitz $\underrightarrow{\lim }{G}_{\lambda }$-actions. This generalises Manevitz and Weinberger's result.
