Automorphisms of the compression body graph

Geometric Topology 2024-03-11 v1

Abstract

When SS is a closed, orientable surface with genus g(S)2g(S) \geq 2, we show that the automorphism group of the compression body graph CB(S)\mathcal{CB}(S) is the mapping class group. Here, vertices are compression bodies with exterior boundary SS, and edges connect pairs of compression bodies where one contains the other.
