Theorem 10 is an improved geodesic coding result. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:0802.0189", "categories": [ "math.DS" ], "abstract": "We study the symmetries and geodesics of an infinite translation surface which arises as a limit of translation surfaces built from regular polygons, studied by Veech. We find the affine symmetry group of this infinite translation surface, and we show that this surface admits a deformation into other surfaces with topologically equivalent affine symmetries. The geodesics on these new surfaces are combinatorially the same as the geodesics on the original.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-08-31T21:30:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37D40", "37E99" ], "keywords": [ "lattice property", "infinite surface", "veech groups", "coding geodesics", "infinite translation surface" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1011.0700H" } } }
