Limiting laminations and boundary weights for infinite-type mapping classes
Abstract
For every infinite-type surface with an isolated puncture that admits a shift map and every natural number n, we study an intrinsically infinite-type mapping class gn and a simple closed curve whose orbit under gn splits into n subsequences, each of which converges in the coarse Chabauty topology to a geodesic lamination on the surface. These laminations are cyclically permuted by gn, and their union is a gn--invariant geodesic lamination. We further show the attracting limit point of gn in the boundary of the relative arc graph has weight n. In particular, intrinsically infinite-type loxodromic isometries of the relative arc graph realize every finite weight.

AB - For every infinite-type surface with an isolated puncture that admits a shift map and every natural number n, we study an intrinsically infinite-type mapping class g_n and a simple closed curve whose orbit under g_n splits into n subsequences, each of which converges in the coarse Chabauty topology to a geodesic lamination on the surface. These laminations are cyclically permuted by g_n, and their union is a g_n--invariant geodesic lamination. We further show the attracting limit point of g_n in the boundary of the relative arc graph has weight n. In particular, intrinsically infinite-type loxodromic isometries of the relative arc graph realize every finite weight.
