Title: Equivariant Double-Slice Genus
(Submitted on 25 Apr 2024)
Abstract: In this paper we define the equivariant double-slice genus and equivariant super-slice genus of a strongly invertible knot. We prove lower bounds for both the equivariant double-slice genus and the equivariant super-slice genus. Using these bounds we find a family of knots which are double-slice and equivariantly slice but have arbitrarily large equivariant double-slice genus. From this, we construct equivariantly knotted symmetric 3-balls as well as unknotted symmetric 2-spheres which do not bound equivariant 3-balls. Additionally, using double-slice and super-slice genus we construct properly embedded surfaces with large 1-handle stabilization distance distance rel boundary.
