Let N be a connected nonorientable surface of genus g with n punctures. Suppose that g is odd and g + n > 6. We prove that the automorphism group of the complex of curves of N is isomorphic to the mapping class group M of N.

Equivariant cross sections of complex Stiefel manifolds Onder, T (Elsevier BV, 2001-01-16) Let G be a finite group and let M be a unitary representation space of G. A solution to the existence problem of G-equivariant cross sections of the complex Stiefel manifold W-k(M) of unitary k-frames over the unit sphere S(M) is given under mild restrictions on G and on fixed point sets. In the case G is an even ordered group, some sufficient conditions for the existence of G-equivariant real frame fields on spheres with complementary G-equivariant complex structures are also obtained, improving earlier re...
Automorphisms of the Hatcher-Thurston complex Irmak, Elmas; Korkmaz, Mustafa (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-12-01) Let S be a compact, connected, orientable surface of positive genus. Let HT(S) be the Hatcher-Thurston complex of S. We prove that Ant HT(S) is isomorphic to the extended mapping class group of S modulo its center.
There is no domain representable dense proper subsemigroup of a topological group Önal, Süleyman (Elsevier BV, 2017-02-01) We prove that the only domain representable dense subsemigroup of a topological group is itself. Consequently, we obtain that every domain representable subgroup of a topological group is closed.
On endomorphisms of surface mapping class groups Korkmaz, Mustafa (Elsevier BV, 2001-05-01) In this paper, we prove that every endomorphism of the mapping class group of an orientable surface onto a subgroup of finite index is in fact an automorphism.
Commutators, Lefschetz fibrations and the signatures of surface bundles Endo, H; Korkmaz, Mustafa; Kotschick, D; Ozbagci, B; Stipsicz, A (Elsevier BV, 2002-09-01) We construct examples of Lefschetz fibrations with prescribed singular fibers. By taking differences of pairs of such fibrations with the same singular fibers, we obtain new examples of surface bundles over surfaces with nonzero signature. From these we derive new upper bounds for the minimal genus of a surface representing a given element in the second homology of a mapping class group.
