We prove that for 4-manifolds [Formula: see text] with residually finite fundamental group and non-spin universal covering [Formula: see text], the inequality [Formula: see text] implies the inequality [Formula: see text]. This allows us to complete the proof of Gromov’s Conjecture for 4-manifolds with abelian fundamental group.

We prove a vanishing theorem of certain cohomology classes for an 2n-manifold of finite fundamental group which admits a fixed point free circle action. In particular, it implies that any Tk-action on a compact symplectic manifold of finite fundamental group has a non-empty fixed point set. The vanishing theorem is used to prove two finiteness results in which no lower bound on volume is assumed. (i) The set of symplectic n-manifolds of finite fundamental groups with curvature, λ ≤ sec ≤ Λ, and diameter, diam ; ≤ d, contains only finitely many diffeomorphism types depending only on n, λ, Λ and d. (ii) The set of simply connected n-manifolds (n ≤ 6) with λ ≤ sec ≤ Λ and diam ≤ d contains only finitely many diffeomorphism types depending only on n, λ, Λ and d.
