A note on small covers over cubes

In this paper, we obtain a bijection between the weakly $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-equivariant homeomorphism classes of small covers over an $n$-cube and the orbits of the action of $\mathbb{Z}_2 \wr S_n$ on acyclic digraphs with $n$ vertices given by local complementation and reordering of vertices. We obtain a similar formula for the number of orientable small covers over an $n$-cube. We also count the $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-equivariant homeomorphism classes of orientable small covers and estimate the ratio between this number and the number of $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-equivariant homeomorphism classes of small covers over an $n$-cube.

Keywords:

small cover, weakly equivariant homeomorphism acyclic digraphs,
