Extending finite group actions on surfaces over $S^3$ (1209.1158v1)

Published 6 Sep 2012 in math.GT and math.GR

Abstract: Let $OE_g$ (resp. $CE_g$ and $AE_g$) and resp. $OEo_g$ be the maximum order of finite (resp. cyclic and abelian) groups $G$ acting on the closed orientable surfaces $\Sigma_g$ which extend over $(S3, \Sigma_g)$ among all embeddings $\Sigma_g\to S3$ and resp. unknotted embeddings $\Sigma_g\to S3$. It is known that $OEo_g\le 12(g-1)$, and we show that $12(g-1)$ is reached for an unknotted embedding $\Sigma_g \to S3$ if and only if $g = 2$, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 11, 17, 25, 97, 121, 241, 601. Moreover $AE_g$ is $2g+2$; and $CE_g$ is $2g+2$ for even $g$, and $2g-2$ for odd $g$. Efforts are made to see intuitively how these maximal symmetries are embedded into the symmetries of the 3-sphere.
