Jan 14, 2023 at 13:58 comment added Moishe Kohan Just for completeness, in such questions you should specify if you are working in topological or smooth category. But for this particular question, it does not matter since the answer is negative in both.
Jan 10, 2023 at 17:33 comment added Yushi MuGiwara @MarkGrant yes, I mean the maximal $n$ for which $\mathbb{R}^n$ act properly on $N$.
Jan 10, 2023 at 14:50 comment added Alex B. To add to Mark's comment: for example if $M=N$, then $\mathbb{R}^n\wr (\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})=(\mathbb{R}^n\times \mathbb{R}^n)\rtimes \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ acts properly on $N\times N$.
Jan 10, 2023 at 13:09 comment added Mark Grant Good question, but I'm not sure about the formulation...is there a "maximal group that can act properly" on a manifold? Do you mean to say the maximal $n$ for which $\mathbb{R}^n$ can act properly?
