Abstract: Let M be a topological space that admits a free involution au, and let N be a topological space. A homotopy class is said to have {it the Borsuk-Ulam property with respect to au} if for every representative map f:MoN of , there exists a point xinM such that f(au(x))=f(x). In this paper, we determine the homotopy classes of maps from the 2-torus T2 to the Klein bottle K2 that possess the Borsuk-Ulam property with respect to a free involution au1 of T2 for which the orbit space is T2. Our results are given in terms of a certain family of homomorphisms involving the fundamental groups of T2 and K2.
