Abstract

Let $G$ be a finite group. The strong symmetric genus$\sigma ^{0}(G)$ is the minimum genus of any Riemann surface on which $G$ acts, preserving orientation. For any non-negative integer $g$, there is at least one group of strong symmetric genus $g$. For $g \neq 2$, one such group has the form $Z_{k} \times D_{n}$ for some $k$ and $n$.
