What is the technical term for the vent often found on the back of a summer suit? It's like a slit on around the spine.

Box pleat would be the one found on shirts (usually fully sewn all the way to the bottom). https://biasedcut.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/full-length-box-pleat-example.jpg


I think he is refeing to the small slit in the middle of the jacket (that would be 'inverted pleat')

ok, inverse box pleat.
