Abstract

An automorphism f of a closed orientable surface Σ is said to be extendable over the 3-sphere S3 if f extends to an automorphism of the pair (S3, Σ) with respect to some embedding Σ hookrightarrow S3. We prove that if an automorphism of a genus-2 surface Σ is extendable over S3, then f extends to an automorphism of the pair (S3, Σ) with respect to an embedding Σ hookrightarrow S3 such that Σ bounds genus-2 handlebodies on both sides. The classification of essential annuli in the exterior of genus-2 handlebodies embedded in S3 due to Ozawa, and the second author plays a key role.
