The Mapping Class Group of a Punctured Surface Is Generated by Three Elements
Let Σg,p be a closed oriented surface of genus g ≥ 1 with p punctures. Let Mod(Σg,p) be the mapping class group of Σg,p. Wajnryb proved in [Wa] that for p = 0, 1 Mod(Σg,p) is generated by two elements. Korkmaz proved in [Ko] that one of these generators can be taken as a Dehn twist. For p ≥ 2, We proved that Mod(Σg,p) is generated by three elements.
متن کاملGenerating Mapping Class Groups by Involutions
Let Σg,b denote a closed oriented surface genus g with b punctures and let Modg,b denote its mapping class group. In [10] Luo proved that if the genus is at least 3, the group Modg,b is generated by involutions. He also asked if there exists a universal upper bound, independent of genus and the number of punctures, for the number of torsion elements/involutions needed to generate Modg,b. Brendl...
متن کاملSubgroups of Mapping Class Groups Generated by Three Dehn Twists
It has been shown that the mapping class group of a genus g ≥ 2 closed surface can be generated by 2g + 1 Dehn twists. Little is known, however, about the structure of those mapping class groups. This paper is an attempt to explain the structure of subgroups of the mapping class group of a closed surface of genus g ≥ 2 which are generated by three Dehn twists. 1 Background and Notation This pap...
متن کاملGenerating the mapping class group of a punctured surface by involutions
Let Σg,b denote a closed orientable surface of genus g with b punctures and let Mod(Σg,b) denote its mapping class group. In [Luo] Luo proved that if the genus is at least 3, Mod(Σg,b) is generated by involutions. He also asked if there exists a universal upper bound, independent of genus and the number of punctures, for the number of torsion elements/involutions needed to generate Mod(Σg,b). B...
متن کاملThe Mixing Time for a Random Walk on the Symmetric Group Generated by Random Involutions
The involution walk is a random walk on the symmetric group generated by involutions with a number of 2cycles sampled from the binomial distribution with parameter p. This is a parallelization of the lazy transposition walk on the symmetric group. The involution walk is shown in this paper to mix for 1 2 ≤ p ≤ 1 fixed, n sufficiently large in between log1/p(n) steps and log2/(1+p)(n) steps. The...
