Abstract
A group G is cohopfian, if every monomorphism G → G is an automorphism. In this paper, we answer the cohopficity question for the fundamental groups of compact Seifert fiber spaces (or Seifert bundles, in the current vernacular). If M is a closed Seifert bundle, then the following are equivalent: (a) ΠM is cohopfian; (b) M does not cover itself nontrivially; (c) M admits a geometric structure modeled on S3or on SL2R. If M is a compact Seifert bundle with nonempty boundary, then %iM is not cohopfian. © 1994 American Mathematical Society.
