We first obtain a characterization of fully irreducible automorphisms analogous to a condition given by Kapovich. Next we discuss the existence of pseudo-periodic conjugacy classes based on the study of Nielsen paths in a train track representative. Finally we give an algorithm which finds out whether an automorphism with a train track representative is pseudo-atoroidal and fully irreducible.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-05-18T08:42:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20E08", "20F65" ], "keywords": [ "generalized baumslag-solitar groups", "train track representative", "pseudo-periodic conjugacy classes", "free groups", "define fully irreducible automorphisms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 46, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
