We calculate a tight upper bound for the topological complexity of an $n$-dimensional Klein bottle. We also compute the exact value of the topological complexity of $2$ and $3$-dimensional Klein bottles. We describe the cohomology rings of several classes of generalized projective product spaces with $\\mathbb{Z}_2$-coefficients. Then we study the LS-category and topological complexity of infinite families of generalized projective product spaces. We also compute the exact value of these invariants in many specific cases. We calculate the equivariant LS-category and equivariant topological complexity of several product spaces equipped with $\\mathbb{Z}_2$-action.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-02-01T14:29:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55M30", "55P15", "57N65" ], "keywords": [ "topological complexity", "fibre bundles", "ls-category", "generalized projective product spaces", "dimensional klein bottle" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
