Centralizers of Finite Subgroups of the Mapping Class Group

Group Theory 2014-10-01 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we study the action of finite subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface on the curve complex. We prove that if the diameter of the almost fixed point set of a finite subgroup H is big enough, then the centralizer of H is infinite.
