    Solving an initial boundary value problem on the semiinfinite interval
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2016) Atalan, Ferihe; Guseinov, Gusein Sh.
    We explore the sign properties of eigenvalues and the basis properties of eigenvectors for a special quadratic matrix polynomial and use the results obtained to solve the corresponding linear system of differential equations on the half line subject to an initial condition at t = 0 and a condition at t = infinity.

    Outer Automorphisms of Mapping Class Groups of Nonorientable Surfaces
    (World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2010) Atalan, Ferihe
    Let N(g) be the connected closed nonorientable surface of genus g >= 5 and Mod(Ng) denote the mapping class group of N(g). We prove that the outer automorphism group of Mod(N(g)) is cyclic.

    Automorphisms of the mapping class group of a nonorientable surface
    (Springer, 2017) Atalan, Ferihe; Szepietowski, Blazej
    Let S be a nonorientable surface of genus g >= 5 with n >= 0 punctures, and Mod(S) its mapping class group. We define the complexity of S to be the maximum rank of a free abelian subgroup of Mod(S). Suppose that S-1 and S-2 are two such surfaces of the same complexity. We prove that every isomorphism Mod(S-1) -> Mod(S-2) is induced by a diffeomorphism S-1 -> S-2. This is an analogue of Ivanov's theorem on automorphisms of the mapping class groups of an orientable surface, and also an extension and improvement of the first author's previous result.

    Automorphisms of Curve Complexes on Nonorientable Surfaces
    (European Mathematical Soc, 2014) Atalan, Ferihe; Korkmaz, Mustafa
    For a compact connected nonorientable surface N of genus g with n boundary components, we prove that the natural map from the mapping class group of N to the automorphism group of the curve complex of N is an isomorphism provided that g + n >= 5. We also prove that two curve complexes are isomorphic if and only if the underlying surfaces are diffeomorphic.

    Number of Pseudo-Anosov Elements in the Mapping Class Group of a Four-Holed Sphere
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2010) Atalan, Ferihe; Korkmaz, Mustafa
    We compute the growth series and the growth functions of reducible and pseudo-Anosov elements of the pure mapping class group of the sphere with four holes with respect to a certain generating set We prove that the ratio of the number of pseudo-Anosov elements to that of all elements in a ball with center at the identity tends to one as the radius of the ball tends to infinity

    Connectedness of the Cut System Complex on Nonorientable Surfaces
    (Univ Kragujevac, Fac Science, 2022) Ali, Fatema; Atalan, Ferihe
    Let N be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus g with n boundary components. In this note, we show that the cut system complex of N is connected for g < 4 and disconnected for g >= 4. We then define a related complex and show that it is connected for g >= 4.
