    Abstract

    Let SLn(a) be the special linear group over integers and Mr = Sr1 Sr2, Tr1 Sr2, or Tr0 Sr1 Sr2, products of spheres and tori. We prove that any group action of SLn(a;) on Mr by diffeomorphims or piecewise linear homeomorphisms is trivial if r < n - 1. This confirms a conjecture on Zimmer's program for these manifolds.
