This is the final pper in series of ppers concerning the homotopy groups of the spce of homeomorphisms on 2-mnifold. If M is compact 2-mnifold with boundary M’, nd K is closed subset, denote by H(M, K) the spce of homeomorphisms of M onto itself leaving K pointwise fixed nd by H0(M, K) its identity component. Kneser proved [14] tht the spce of rigid motions on S is deformation retract of Ho(S). Thus 7rn H0(S2) "n’n(P) for ech n, rn Ho(S) 7rn(.3) for n > 1, nd mHo(S) -,(S) for n > 2. In prticulr r H0(S) Z nd r, H0(S) 0. If M is disc with holes or Moebius strip, Ho(M, M’) is homotopiclly trivial ([6], [8] nd [12]). In fct Alexander’s classic result [1] that the spce of homeomorphisms of n n-cell onto itself leaving the boundary pointwise fixed is contractible nd locally contractible is most important tool in the study of these problems. If M is torus, rHo(M) Try(M) for ech i, nd if M is torus with the interiors of finite number of disjoint discs removed, Ho(M, M’) is homotopically trivial [11]. For rel projective spce, r H0(P) r(P) for i > 2, rH0(P) 0, rH0(P) Z, rH0(P, x) Z, where xeP nd Ho(P, x) 0 for i > 1 (see [12]). For the Klein bottle K, ’Ho(K) 0 for i > 1, r Ho(K) Z nd ’Ho(K, x) 0 for ech i [12]. In this present pper, it is shown that H0(M) is homotopiclly trivial for ll compact 2-mnifolds (without boundary) of genus greater thn 1, if orientble, and greter than 2, if non-orientble; nd that, if M is compact 2-mnifold with nonempty boundary, H0(M, M’) is homotopiclly trivial. Further related results my be found in McCrty’s pper [16], where he proves among other things, that
