Abstract: We prove that in the non-orientable setting, the minimal stretch factor of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface of genus $g$ with a fixed number of punctures is asymptotically on the order of $frac1g$. Our result adapts the work of Yazdi to non-orientable surfaces. We include the details of Thurston's theory of fibered faces for non-orientable 3-manifolds.

Review text

Generalizing a corresponding result for orientable surfaces by \textit{M. Yazdi} [Algebr. Geom. Topol. 20, No. 4, 2095--2128 (2020; Zbl 1450.37032)], the authors prove that the logarithm of the minimal stretch factor of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a nonorientable surface of genus \(g\) with a fixed number \(n\) of punctures behaves asymptotically like \(1/g\) (this was shown by \textit{R. C. Penner} for orientable surface without punctures [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 113, No. 2, 443--450 (1991; Zbl 0726.57013)]). In the introduction, the authors give a short survey on bounds of stretch factors of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of surfaces; they include in the paper also the details of Thurston's theory of fibered faces for nonorientable 3-manifolds.
