Now, one can ask within the considered category the following homeomorphism extension question. For a given embedding \\(i:M\\to \\mathbb R^{p+2}\\) and homeomorphism \\(\\tau:M\\to M\\) is there orientation preserving homeomorphism \\(\\tilde{\\tau}:\\mathbb R^{p+2}\\to \\mathbb R^{p+2}\\) such that \\(i\\circ \\tau = \\tilde{\\tau} \\circ i.\\) Then the class \\([\\tau ]\\in\\) MCG\\(_{\\mathcal{C}}(M)\\) is called \\(\\mathcal{C}\\)-extendable over \\(i\\). Such classes define the \\(\\mathcal{C}\\)-extendable subgroup \\(\\mathcal{E}_\\mathcal{C}(i)\\) of MCG\\(_\\mathcal{C} (M)\\).  The paper asks: what is the index of \\(\\mathcal{E}_{\\mathcal{C}}(i) \\leq\\) MCG\\(_\\mathcal{C} (M)\\)? To achieve this let \\(\\varsigma^{p+2}\\) be the canonical spin structure on \\(\\mathbb R^{p+2}\\). Using Seifert hypersurfaces, the authors develop an invariant-induced spin structure \\(i^*(\\varsigma^{p+2})\\) on \\(M\\) that is canonically induced from the embedding \\(i:M\\to \\mathbb R^{p+2}\\). All this is used to determine an index lower bound when \\(M\\) is a \\(p\\)-dimensional torus \\(T^p\\) or a closed-orientable surface. The index lower bound for \\(T^p\\), under an additional condition on \\(i^*(\\varsigma^{p+2})\\) is \\( \\geq 2^p-1.\\)"},"provenance":{"prov:generatedAtTime":"2026-04-02T23:02:53Z","prov:wasAttributedTo":"MaRDI Knowledge Graph"}}
