Classification of pro-$p$ PD$^2$ pairs and the pro-$p$ curve complex

Group Theory 2018-06-21 v2 Geometric Topology

Abstract

We classify pro-pp Poincar\'e duality pairs in dimension two. We then use this classification to build a pro-pp analogue of the curve complex and establish its basic properties. We conclude with some statements concerning separability properties of the mapping class group.
