We prove the vanishing of the A-genus of compact smooth manifolds with finite second homotopy group and endowed with smooth S 1 actions. These manifolds are not necessarily spin, hence, this vanishing extends that of Atiyah and Hirzebruch on spin manifolds with S 1 actions. The proof is accomplished
## Dedicated to Professor Jacques Tits on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday Let X = G/H be a simply connected homogeneous space under the compact Lie group G where H is a subgroup of G and rank(G)= rank(H). Let 2 := Z(T, G) be the root system of G relative to some maximal torus T of H (hence a
