Injective Simplicial Maps of the Arc Complex on Nonorientable Surfaces

Elmas Irmak

Published 2008-03-04Version 1

We prove that each injective simplicial map from the arc complex of a compact, connected, nonorientable surface with nonempty boundary to itself is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface. We also prove that the automorphism group of the arc complex is isomorphic to the quotient of the mapping class group of the surface by its center.
