Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 4Number of Pseudo-Anosov Elements in the Mapping Class Group of a Four-Holed Sphere(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2010) Atalan, Ferihe; Korkmaz, MustafaWe 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 infinityArticle Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Automorphisms of Curve Complexes on Nonorientable Surfaces(European Mathematical Soc, 2014) Atalan, Ferihe; Korkmaz, MustafaFor 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.
