Combinatorial Seifert fibred spaces with transitive cyclic automorphism group (Q312313)

A \textit{combinatorial manifold with transitive automorphism group} is a combinatorial manifold \(M\) so that its group of automorphisms (i.e. the group of all permutations of the vertices of \(M\) which do not change the complex) acts transitively on the vertices; in particular, if the complex is invariant under the cyclic \(\mathbb Z_n\)-action \( v\to v+1\mod n\), then \(M\) is called a \textit{cyclic combinatorial manifold}. In the present paper the authors obtain families of combinatorial 3-manifolds with transitive cyclic symmetry, whose combinatorial structure reflect their topological properties. In particular, they present a 3-parameter family \(M(p,q,r)\) (\(2\leq p<q\) coprime, \(r>0\)) of combinatorial Seifert fibered spaces with \(2pq +r\) vertices, an unbounded number of exceptional fibers and transitive cyclic symmetry, where the symmetry preserves the fibers and acts non-trivially on the homology of the spaces. Moreover, \(M(p,q,r)\) is proved to have Heegaard genus at most \((p-1)(q-1)\), and to be homeomorphic to the Brieskorn homology sphere \(\Sigma(p,q,r)\) in case \(p, q, r\) coprime and to the lens space \(L(q,1)\) in case \(p=r=2\).
