Abstract
Mapping classes on surfaces and outer automorphisms of the free group define dynamical systems that can often be described in terms of graph maps. In this talk we present algebraic and geometric invariants of graph maps and relate these to the corresponding invariants in the geometric setting, In particular, we present a unified way to view Alexander polynomials and the lesser known Teichmueller polynomials. This talk is based on joint work with Kasra Rafi and Yael Algom-Kfir.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
