The asymptotic behavior of least pseudo-Anosov dilatations
Let S = Sg,n be an orientable surface with genus g and n marked points. The mapping class group of S is defined to be the group of homotopy classes of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of S. We denote it by Mod(S). Given a pseudo-Anosov element f ∈ Mod(S), let λ(f ) denote the dilatation of f (see section 2.1). We define L(Sg,n) := {log λ(f )|f ∈ Mod(Sg,n) pseudo-Anosov}. This is precisely ...
متن کاملPseudo-Anosov dilatations and the Johnson filtration
Answering a question of Farb–Leininger–Margalit, we give explicit lower bounds for the dilatations of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes lying in the kth term of the Johnson filtration of the mapping class group.
متن کاملThe lower central series and pseudo-Anosov dilatations
The theme of this paper is that algebraic complexity implies dynamical complexity for pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of a closed surface Sg of genus g. Penner proved that the logarithm of the minimal dilatation for a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of Sg tends to zero at the rate 1/g. We consider here the smallest dilatation of any pseudoAnosov homeomorphism of Sg acting trivially on Γ/Γk, the quotie...
متن کاملAn asymptotic behavior of the dilatation for a family of pseudo-Anosov braids
The dilatation of a pseudo-Anosov braid is a conjugacy invariant. In this paper, we study the dilatation of a special family of pseudo-Anosov braids. We prove an inductive formula to compute their dilatation, a monotonicity and an asymptotic behavior of the dilatation for this family of braids. We also give an example of a family of pseudo-Anosov braids with arbitrarily small dilatation such th...
متن کاملOn the flux of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms
We exhibit a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface S which acts trivially on H1(S; Z) and whose flux is nonzero.
