Birman-Hilden theory for big mapping class groups
Nestor Colin, Ruben Hidalgo, Rita Jiménez Rolland +2
Let and be two connected topological surfaces without boundary, and assume that is either of infinite type or has negative Euler characteristic. In this paper, we prove…
A spine for the decorated Teichmüller space of a punctured non-orientable surface
Nestor Colin, Rita Jiménez Rolland, Porfirio L. León Ãlvarez +1
Building on work of Harer \cite{Ha86}, we construct a spine for the decorated Teichmüller space of a non-orientable surface with at least one puncture and negative Euler character…
The proper geometric dimension of the mapping class group of an orientable surface with punctures
Nestor Colin, Rita Jiménez Rolland, Porfirio L. León Ãlvarez +1
We show that the {\it full} mapping class group of any orientable closed surface with punctures admits a cocompact classifying space for proper actions of dimension equal to its vi…
Farrell cohomology of the pure mapping class group of non-orientable surfaces
Nestor Colin
For an odd prime , we determine the -primary component of the Farrell cohomology of the pure mapping class groups of a non orientable surface of genus with …
