Consider a connected orientable surface S of infinite topological type, i.e. with infinitely-generated fundamental group. Our main purpose is to give a description of the geometric structure of an arbitrary subgraph of the arc graph of S, subject to some rather general conditions. As special cases, we recover results of Bavard (Geom Topol 20, 2016) and Aramayona–Fossas–Parlier (Arc and curve graphs for infinite-type surfaces. Preprint, 2015). In the second part of the paper, we obtain a number… Expand
Arc and curve graphs for infinite-type surfaces
• Mathematics
• 2015
We study arc graphs and curve graphs for surfaces of infinite topological type. First, we define an arc graph relative to a finite number of (isolated) punctures and prove that it is a connected,Expand

Uniform hyperbolicity of nonseparating curve graphs of nonorientable surfaces

Two remarks about multicurve graphs on infinite-type surfaces
After Fossas-Parlier, we consider two graphs $\mathcal{G}_{0}(S)$ and $\mathcal{G}_{\infty}(S)$, constructed from multicurves on connected, orientable surfaces of infinite-type. Our first resultExpand
Uniform hyperbolicity of the graphs of nonseparating curves via bicorn curves
We show that the graphs of nonseparating curves for oriented finite type surfaces are uniformly hyperbolic. Our proof follows the proof of uniform hyperbolicity of the graphs of curves for closedExpand
The random graph embeds in the curve graph of any infinite genus surface
• Mathematics
• 2014
The random graph is an infinite graph with the universal property that any embedding of $G-v$ extends to an embedding of $G$, for any finite graph. In this paper we show that this graph embeds in theExpand
Matching arc complexes: connectedness and hyperbolicity
Addressing a question of Zaremsky, we give conditions on a finite simplicial graph which guarantee that the associated matching arc complex is connected and hyperbolic.
Curve graphs of surfaces with finite-invariance index 1
