1 Oct 2002 | Subject: | Geometric Topology; Group Theory MSC-class: 57 N 05, 20 F 38 | math.GT math.GR | Abstract: | The aim of this paper is to introduce a group containing the mapping class groups of all genus zero surfaces. Roughly speaking, such a group is intended to be a discrete analogue of the diffeomorphism group of the circle. One defines indeed a {it universal mapping class group of genus zero}, denoted $B$. The latter is a nontrivial extension of the Thompson group $V$ (acting on the Cantor set) by an inductive limit of pure mapping class groups of all genus zero surfaces. We prove that $B$ is a finitely presented group, and give an explicit presentation of it. | Source: | arXiv, math.GT/0210007 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
