Automorphisms of complexes of curves on punctured spheres and on punctured tori

1999-07-01
Let S be either a sphere with greater than or equal to 5 punctures or a torus with greater than or equal to 3 punctures. We prove that the automorphism group of the complex of curves of S is isomorphic to the extended mapping class group M-S*. As applications we prove that surfaces of genus less than or equal to 1 are determined by their complexes of curves, and any isomorphism between two subgroups of M-S(*) of finite index is the restriction of an inner automorphism of M-S(*) We conclude that the outer automorphism group of a finite index subgroup of M-S(*) is finite, extending the fact that the outer automorphism group of M-S(*) is finite. For surfaces of genus greater than or equal to 2, corresponding results were proved by Ivanov (MES/M/89/60, Preprint). (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

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.

Quasi-constricted linear operators on Banach spaces
Wolff, MPH; Emel'yanov, Eduard Yu. (2001-01-01)
Let X be a Banach space over C. The bounded linear operator T on X is called quasi-constricted if the subspace X-0 := {x epsilon X : lim(n --> infinity) parallel toT(n)x parallel to = 0} is closed and has finite codimension. We show that a power bounded linear operator T epsilon L(X) is quasi-constricted iff it has an attractor A with Hausdorff measure of noncompactness chi parallel to (.)parallel to (1) (A) )over bar>T is mean ergodic for all lambda in the peripheral spectrum sigma (pi)(T) of T is constric...
Invariant subspaces for Banach space operators with an annular spectral set
Yavuz, Onur (2008-01-01)
Consider an annulus Omega = {z epsilon C : r(0) 0 such that parallel to p(T)parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} and parallel to p(r(0)T(-1))parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} for all polynomials p. Then there exists a nontrivial common invariant subspace for T* and T*(-1).
