Abstract:
Let $h$ be an involution of a $3$-dimensional lens space $L = L(p,q)$. $h$ is called sense preserving if $h$ induces the identity of ${H_1}(L)$. The purpose of this paper is to classify the orientation preserving PL involutions of $L$ which preserve sense and have nonempty fixed point sets for $p$ even. It follows that, up to PL equivalences, there are exactly three PL involutions on the projective $3$-space ${P^3}$, and exactly seven PL involutions on ${P^3}\# {P^3}$.References
