Simultaneous universal circles and continuous extension

Sérgio R. Fenley, Michael P. Landry, Samuel J. Taylor

Fenley proved that any foliation almost transverse to a quasigeodesic pseudo-Anosov flow in a closed atoroidal 3-manifold has the continuous extension property, meaning the inclusi…

Constructing depth one laminations transverse to pseudo-Anosov flows

Junzhi Huang, Samuel J. Taylor

Given a pseudo-Anosov flow on a closed atoroidal --manifold and a closed surface almost transverse to , we give a homological characterization of when can b…

A characterization of pseudo-Anosov orbit spaces via bifoliated planes

Kathryn Mann, Samuel J. Taylor

We characterize the actions on bifoliated planes that arise as orbits spaces of transitive pseudo-Anosov flows on orientable closed 3-manifold. We use branched covers, veering tria…

Quadratic-time computations for pseudo-Anosov mapping classes

Dan Margalit, Balázs Strenner, Samuel J. Taylor +1

We give a quadratic-time algorithm to compute the stretch factor and the invariant measured foliations for a pseudo-Anosov element of the mapping class group. As input, the algorit…

On fixed points of pseudo-Anosov maps

Tarik Aougab, David Futer, Samuel J. Taylor

We give a formula to estimate the number of fixed points of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface. When the homeomorphism satisfies a mild property called strong irreducibilit…

Pseudo-Anosov flows, hyperbolic geometry, and the curve graph

Junzhi Huang, Samuel J. Taylor

Starting with a pseudo-Anosov flow on a closed hyperbolic -manifold and an embedded surface that is (almost) transverse to , we relate the hyperbolic…
