英文摘要:

      Using the notion of biconnected sum we define the biconnected sum (T₁, M₁)§(T₂,M₂) of two involutions (T1M1) and (T2,M2) which is an involution on the biconnected sum M₁,§M₂. A connected involution is said to be reducible if it can be expressed as a biconnected sum of two connected involutions.Theorem Each connected involution (T, M) can be decomposed into a bi-connected sum of connected irreducible involutions (T, M)=(T₁, M₁)§…§(T_q,M_q),and (?) where the coefficients of H_{n_1}(M) are in Z/2 Z if M is unoriented, in Z if is oriented .
