Abstract
In 2011, Barot and Marsh provided an explicit construction of presentation of a finite Weyl group by any quiver mutation-equivalent to an orientation of a Dynkin diagram with Weyl group . The construction was extended by the authors of the present paper to obtain presentations for all affine Coxeter groups, as well as to construct groups from triangulations of unpunctured surfaces and orbifolds, where the groups are invariant under change of triangulation and thus are presented as quotients of numerous distinct Coxeter groups. We extend the construction to include most punctured surfaces and orbifolds, providing a new invariant for almost all marked surfaces.
