Finite abelian subgroups of the mapping class group

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The problem of enumeration of conjugacy classes of finite abelian subgroups of the mapping class group mathcalMsigma of a compact closed surface X of genus sigma is considered. A complete method of enumeration is achieved for finite elementary abelian subgroups and steps are taken toward enumeration of finite abelian subgroups.


The authors study the topological classes of \({\mathbb Z}_{p}^{r}\)-actions as group of conformal automorphisms of closed Riemann surfaces. This description is provided by dividing the situation into (i) free actions and (ii) non-free action with quotient orbifold of genus zero. Concrete examples are worked in order to show how the method works.
