Extending Finite Group Actions from Surfaces to Handlebodies
We show that every action of a finite dihedral group on a closed orientable surface F extends to a 3-dimensional handlebody V , with ∂V = F . In the case of a finite abelian group G, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a G-action on a surface to extend to a compact 3-manifold, or, equivalently in this case, to a 3-dimensional handlebody; in particular all (fixed-point) free actions ...
متن کاملKrieger’s Finite Generator Theorem for Actions of Countable Groups I
For an ergodic p.m.p. action G y (X,μ) of a countable group G, we define the Rokhlin entropy hRok G (X,μ) to be the infimum of the Shannon entropies of countable generating partitions. It is known that for free ergodic actions of amenable groups this notion coincides with classical Kolmogorov– Sinai entropy. It is thus natural to view Rokhlin entropy as a close analogue to classical entropy. Un...
متن کاملExtending Precolorings to Distinguish Group Actions
Given a group Γ acting on a set X, a k-coloring φ : X → {1, . . . , k} of X is distinguishing with respect to Γ if the only γ ∈ Γ that fixes φ is the identity action. The distinguishing number of the action Γ, denoted DΓ(X), is then the smallest positive integer k such that there is a distinguishing k-coloring of X with respect to Γ. This notion has been studied in a number of settings, but by ...
متن کاملOn Automorphism Groups of Free Products of Finite Groups, I: Proper Actions
If G is a free product of finite groups, let ΣAut1(G) denote all (necessarily symmetric) automorphisms of G that do not permute factors in the free product. We show that a McCullough-Miller [D. McCullough and A. Miller, Symmetric Automorphisms of Free Products, Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 122 (1996), no. 582] and Gutiérrez-Krstić [M. Gutiérrez and S. Krstić, Normal forms for the group of basis-conjug...
متن کاملAlmost Linear Actions by Finite Groups on S
A free action of a finite group on an odd-dimensional sphere is said to be almost linear if the action restricted to each cyclic or 2– hyperelementary subgroup is conjugate to a free linear action. We begin this survey paper by reviewing the status of almost linear actions on the 3–sphere. We then discuss almost linear actions on higher-dimensional spheres, paying special attention to the group...
