Dec 11, 2011 at 18:22 comment added David Let me also ask a related question. Can $X$ as above contain a homologically essential real two dimensional submanifold that realizes the subgroup $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}_{n}$? I suspect the answer is no, but I am not able to prove it.
Dec 11, 2011 at 17:56 comment added David Thank you very much for your answer. Do you know if the subgroups of the form $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}_{n}$ can occur, where $n \geq 2$?
