Rigidity and Vanishing Theorems on ${\mathbb{Z}}/k$ Spin$^c$ manifolds

In this paper, we first establish an $S^1$-equivariant index theorem for Spin$^c$ Dirac operators on $\mathbb{Z}/k$ manifolds, then combining with the methods developed by Taubes \cite{MR998662} and Liu-Ma-Zhang \cite{MR1870666,MR2016198}, we extend Witten's rigidity theorem to the case of $\mathbb{Z}/k$ Spin$^c$ manifolds. Among others, our results resolve a conjecture of Devoto \cite{MR1405063}
