$G$-action on the integral homology of a compact surface

This answer complements Oscar Randal-Williams's. First of all, if $G=\mathbb{Z}/p$ acts freely and orientation-preservingly on a closed orientable surface $S$ then $H_{1}(S) =\mathbb{Z}^{2}\oplus (\ma …

Maximal degree of a map between orientable surfaces

See Skora, Richard, The degree of a map between surfaces, Math. Ann. 276(1987), no.3, 415–423. He careful handles the cases when the surfaces are not necessarily orientable, using absolute degree. …
