Hierarchically Hyperbolic Surface-by-surface Groups

Spencer Dowdall, Matthew Gentry Durham, Chris Leininger +2

We give many examples of surface bundles over surfaces whose fundamental groups are hierarchically hyperbolic by showing that extensions of surface groups constructed by the third…

Asymptotically conformal and asymptotically rigid mapping class groups

Javier Aramayona, George Domat, Christopher Leininger

We give conditions ensuring that an asymptotically rigid mapping class group, specifically a surface Houghton group , has finite index in the asymptotically conform…

Fibrations on Handlebodies

Jesús Hernández Hernández, Christopher J. Leininger, Ferrán Valdez

We show that the open genus 2 handlebody admits uncountably-many fibrations over the circle with fiber homeomorphic to the Cantor tree surface with non-conjugate monodromies in the…

Atoroidal surface bundles

Autumn E. Kent, Christopher J. Leininger

We show that there is a type-preserving homomorphism from the fundamental group of the figure-eight knot complement to the mapping class group of the thrice-punctured torus. As a c…

Isomorphisms and commensurability of surface Houghton groups

Javier Aramayona, George Domat, Christopher J. Leininger

We classify surface Houghton groups, as well as their pure subgroups, up to isomorphism, commensurability, and quasi-isometry.

A lower bound on volumes of end-periodic mapping tori

Elizabeth Field, Autumn Kent, Christopher Leininger +1

We provide a lower bound on the volume of the compactified mapping torus of a strongly irreducible end-periodic homeomorphism f. This result, together with work of Field, Kim, Lein…
