Abstract: For every finitely generated free group F, we construct an irreducible open 3-manifold MF whose end set is homeomorphic to a Cantor set, and with the end homogeneity group of MF isomorphic to F. The end homogeneity group is the group of all self-homeomorphisms of the end set that extend to homeomorphisms of the entire 3-manifold. This extends an earlier result that constructs, for each finitely generated abelian group G, an irreducible open 3-manifold MG with end homogeneity group G. The method used in the proof of our main result also shows that if G is a group with a Cayley graph in mathbbR3 such that the graph automorphisms have certain nice extension properties, then there is an irreducible open 3-manifold MG with end homogeneity group G.
