Let $M$ be a compact oriented simply-connected manifold of dimension at least
8. Assume $M$ is equipped with a torsion-free semi-free circle action with
isolated fixed points. We prove $M$ has a perfect invariant Morse-Smale
function. The major ingredient in the proof is a new cancellation theorem for
the invariant Morse theory.
