The equivariant genera of marked strongly invertible knots associated with $2$-bridge knots

A marked strongly invertible knot is a triple $(K,h,δ)$ of a knot $K$ in $S^3$, a strong inversion $h$ of $K$, and a subarc $δ\subset \operatorname{Fix}(h)\cong S^1$ bounded by $\operatorname{Fix}(h)\cap K\cong S^0$. An invariant Seifert surface for $(K,h,δ)$ is an $h$-invariant Seifert surface for $K$ that intersects $\operatorname{Fix}(h)$ in the arc $δ$. In this paper, we completely determine the equivariant genus (the minimum of the genera of invariant Seifert surfaces for $(K,h,δ)$) of every marked strongly invertible knot $(K,h,δ)$ with $K$ a $2$-bridge knot.

Invariant Seifert surfaces for strongly invertible knots

We study invariant Seifert surfaces for strongly invertible knots, and prove that the gap between the equivariant genus (the minimum of the genera of invariant Seifert surfaces) of a strongly invertible knot and the (usual) genus of the underlying knot can be arbitrary large. This forms a sharp contrast with Edmonds' theorem that every periodic knot admits an invariant minimal genus Seifert surface. We also prove variants of Edmonds' theorem, which are useful in studying invariant Seifert surfaces for strongly invertible knots.
