Abstract:
We will announce two theorems. The first theorem will classify all topological types of degenerate fibers appearing in one-parameter families of Riemann surfaces, in terms of "pseudoperiodic" surface homeomorphisms. The second theorem will give a complete set of conjugacy invariants for the mapping classes of such homeomorphisms. This latter result implies that Nielsen’s set of invariants [Surface transformation classes of algebraically finite type, Collected Papers 2, Birkhäuser (1986)] is not complete.References
