  "abstract": "A gentle algebra gives rise to a dissection of an oriented marked surface with boundary into polygons and the bounded derived category of the gentle algebra has a geometric interpretation in terms of this surface. In this paper we study silting theory in the bounded derived category of a gentle algebra in terms of its underlying surface. In particular, we show how silting mutation corresponds to the changing of graded arcs and that in some cases silting mutation results in the interpretation of the octahedral axioms in terms of the flipping of diagonals in a quadrilateral as in the work of Dyckerhoff-Kapranov in the context of triangulated surfaces. We also show that silting reduction corresponds to the cutting of the underlying surface as is the case for Calabi-Yau reduction of surface cluster categories as shown by Marsh-Palu and Qiu-Zhou.",
