Applications to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Klein</strong> <strong>Bottle</strong><br />

The Ring ZG<br />

In light of <strong>the</strong> presentation of G,<br />

ZG = Z[y, y −1 ][x, x −1 ; σ]<br />

and σ is <strong>the</strong> isomorphism induced by<br />

In particular,<br />

as polynomials in ZG.<br />

σ : y ↦−→ y −1 .<br />

yn = ny, ∀n ∈ Z<br />

xn = nx, ∀n ∈ Z<br />

yx = xy −1<br />
