Classicaly, cyclic p-gonal surfaces can be characterized using Fuchsian groups. In this paper we establish a geometric characterization of cyclic p-gonal surfaces. Specifically, this is determined by collections of simple geodesic arcs on the surfaces and graphs associated to these arcs. In previous work, the author has given a geometric characterization of hyperelliptic surfaces in terms of simple, closed geodesics and graphs associated to these. The present work may be seen as an extension. Involutions, however, have properties that do not generalize to arbitrary automorphisms of order <i>p</i>. Hence, the number of vertices needed in the graphs used here is larger than that of the hyperelliptic case.</p>","PeriodicalId":55103,"journal":{"name":"Geometriae Dedicata","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140125647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a hyperbolic filling <i>Y</i> of the boundary of a Gromov hyperbolic space <i>X</i>, one has a quasi-Moebius identification between the boundaries <span>(partial Y)</span> and <span>(partial X)</span>. For CAT(-1) spaces, and more generally boundary continuous Gromov hyperbolic spaces, one can refine the quasi-Moebius structure on the boundary to a Moebius structure. It is then natural to ask whether there exists a functorial hyperbolic filling of the boundary by a boundary continuous Gromov hyperbolic space with an identification between boundaries which is not just quasi-Moebius, but in fact Moebius. The filling should be functorial in the sense that a Moebius homeomorphism between boundaries should induce an isometry between there fillings. We give a positive answer to this question for a large class of boundaries satisfying one crucial hypothesis, the <i>antipodal property</i>. This gives a class of compact spaces called <i>quasi-metric antipodal spaces</i>. For any such space <i>Z</i>, we give a functorial construction of a boundary continuous Gromov hyperbolic space <span>(mathcal {M}(Z))</span> together with a Moebius identification of its boundary with <i>Z</i>. The space <span>(mathcal {M}(Z))</span> is maximal amongst all fillings of <i>Z</i>. These spaces <span>(mathcal {M}(Z))</span> give in fact all examples of a natural class of spaces called <i>maximal Gromov hyperbolic spaces</i>. We prove an equivalence of categories between quasi-metric antipodal spaces and maximal Gromov hyperbolic spaces. This is part of a more general equivalence we prove between the larger categories of certain spaces called <i>antipodal spaces</i> and <i>maximal Gromov product spaces</i>. We prove that the injective hull of a Gromov product space <i>X</i> is isometric to the maximal Gromov product space <span>(mathcal {M}(Z))</span>, where <i>Z</i> is the boundary of <i>X</i>. We also show that a Gromov product space is injective if and only if it is maximal.</p>","PeriodicalId":55103,"journal":{"name":"Geometriae Dedicata","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140045025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
