Generators for Extended Mapping Class Groups

Tulin Altunoz, Mehmetcik Pamuk, Oguz Yildiz

Published 2020-03-23Version 1

We prove that the extended mapping class group of a connected orientable punctured surface of genus at least three is generated by four involutions. Moreover, for $g\geq6$, it is generated by three torsions, one of which is an involution.
