Train tracks and surface groups acting on hyperbolic spaces
Let Σ be a compact surface, and letM be a path metric space with π1(M) ∼= π1(Σ) and with the universal cover M̃ Gromov hyperbolic. We show that, under certain assumptions, the shortest realisation in M of a multicurve Σ can be approximated by a train track in M . In the case where M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold, this is well known (see for example [Bon]). The main result is stated as Theorem 0.1 h...
متن کاملSimple Braids for Surface Homeomorphisms
Let S be a compact, oriented surface with negative Euler characteristic and let f : S → S be a homeomorphism isotopic to the identity. If there exists a periodic orbit with a non-zero rotation vector (~ p, q), then there exists a simple braid with the same rotation vector.
متن کاملRecurrent Surface Homeomorphisms
An orientation-preserving recurrent homeomorphism of the twosphere which is not the identity is shown to admit exactly two fixed points. A recurrent homeomorphism of a compact surface with negative Euler characteristic is periodic.
متن کاملBraid Forcing and Star-shaped Train Tracks
Global results are proved about the way in which Boyland’s forcing partial order organizes a set of braid types: those of periodic orbits of Smale’s horseshoe map for which the associated train track is a star. This is a special case of a conjecture introduced in [dCHb], which claims that forcing organizes all horseshoe braid types into linearly ordered families which are, in turn, parameterize...
متن کاملStretching factors, metrics and train tracks for free products
In this paper we develop the metric theory for the outer space of a free product of groups. This generalizes the theory of the outer space of a free group, and includes its relative versions. The outer space of a free product is made of G-trees with possibly non-trivial vertex stabilisers. The strategies are the same as in the classical case, with some technicalities arising from the presence o...
