Symmetries of hyperbolic spatial graphs and realization of graph symmetries (Q6121099)

For a finite group \(G\) of orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms of a closed orientable 3-manifold \(M\), under certain conditions the author constructs hyperbolic graphs in \(M\) (i.e., graphs with hyperbolic complement) which are invariant under the action of \(G\) and contain prescribed subsets of the singular set of \(G\) (the subset of \(M\) with non-trivial stabilizers in \(G\)), considering in particular also the case \(M = S^3\). ``As an application, we provide a condition under which symmetries of abstract graphs are realizable by symmetries of the 3-sphere through hyperbolic spatial embeddings.'' For equivariant embeddings of finite graphs with large automorphism groups into \(S^3\), see also a paper by \textit{C. Wang} et al. [Discrete Comput. Geom. 59, No. 2, 331--362 (2018; Zbl 1422.57048)].
