Abstract

We consider the orientation-preserving actions of finite groups G on pairs (S3, Γ) , where Γ is a connected graph of genus g> 1 , embedded in S3. For each g we give the maximum order mg of such G acting on (S3, Γ) for all such Γ ⊂ S3. Indeed we will classify all graphs Γ ⊂ S3 which realize these mg in different levels: as abstract graphs and as spatial graphs, as well as their group actions. Such maximum orders without the condition “orientation-preserving” are also addressed.
