Let $S$ be a nonorientable surface of genus $g\ge 5$ with $n\ge 0$ punctures, and $\Mcg(S)$ its mapping class group. We define the complexity of $S$ to be the maximum rank of a free abelian subgroup of $\Mcg(S)$. Suppose that $S_1$ and…

The fine curve graph of a surface was introduced by Bowden, Hensel, and Webb as a graph consisting of essential simple closed curves on the surface. Long, Margalit, Pham, Verberne, and Yao proved that the automorphism group of the fine…

The fine 1-curve graph of a surface is a graph whose vertices are simple closed curves on the surface and whose edges connect vertices that intersect in at most one point. We show that the automorphism group of the fine 1-curve graph is…

Building on work of Farb and the second author, we prove that the group of automorphisms of the fine curve graph for a surface is isomorphic to the group of homeomorphisms of the surface. This theorem is analogous to the seminal result of…

We study complex projective plane curves with a given group of automorphisms. Let $G$ be a simple primitive subgroup of $PGL(3, \mathbb{C})$, which is isomorphic to $A_{6}$, $A_{5}$ or $PSL(2, \mathbb{F}_{7})$. We obtain a necessary and…

We show that any isomorphism between mapping class groups of orientable infinite-type surfaces is induced by a homeomorphism between the surfaces. Our argument additionally applies to automorphisms between finite-index subgroups of these…

We compute the automorphism groups of the Torelli complex and the complex of separating curves for all but finitely many compact orientable surfaces. As an application, we show that the abstract commensurators of the Torelli group and the…

We prove that each superinjective simplicial map of the complex of curves of a compact, connected, nonorientable surface is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface, if $(g, n) \in \{(1, 0), (1, 1), (2, 0), (2, 1), (3, 0)\}$ or $g + n \geq…
