We consider fully effective orientation-preserving smooth actions of a given finite group G on smooth, closed, oriented 3–manifolds M. We investigate the relations that necessarily hold between the numbers of fixed points of various non-cyclic subgroups. In Section 2, we show that all such relations are in fact equations mod 2, and we explain how the number of independent equations yields information concerning low-dimensional equivariant cobordism groups. Moreover, we restate a theorem of A Szűcs asserting that under the conditions imposed on a smooth action of G on M as above, the number of G–orbits of points x ∈ M with non-cyclic stabilizer Gx is even, and we prove the result by using arguments of G Moussong. In Sections 3 and 4, we determine all the equations for non-cyclic subgroups G of SO(3).
