Abstract
Any compact, connected Lie group which acts effectively on a closed aspherical manifold is a torus Tk with k ≤ rank of [Formula: see text], the center of π1 (M). When [Formula: see text], the torus action is called a maximal torus action. The authors have previously shown that many closed aspherical manifolds admit maximal torus actions. In this paper, a smooth maximal torus action is constructed on each solvmanifold. They also construct smooth maximal torus actions on some double coset spaces of general Lie groups as applications.
