On the large-scale geometry of k-multicurve graphs (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Graphs whose vertices are isotopy classes of simple closed curves, or multicurves, on surfaces have been widely studied, since they admit natural actions of mapping class groups. The curve graph and the pants graph are two fundamental examples. These graphs have found many applications in low-dimensional topology, including the study of Teichmüller spaces, Kleinian groups, and topology of 3-manifolds. In particular, the Gromov hyperbolicity of the curve graph, established by Masur and Minsky, played an important role in the proof of the Ending Lamination Theorem.
The k-multicurve graph, introduced by Erlandsson and Fanoni, is a graph whose vertices are multicurves with k components. It provides a natural interpolation between the curve graph and the pants graph. In this talk, we will present results on large-scale geometric properties of k-multicurve graphs, including hyperbolicity, relative hyperbolicity, and quasi-flat rank. If time permits, we will also discuss some connections with mapping class groups and Teichmüller spaces. This talk is based on joint work with Erika Kuno (Shibaura Institute of Technology) and Rin Kuramochi (The University of Tokyo).
