Dynamics of veering triangulations: infinitesimal components of their flow graphs and applications

Ian Agol and Chi Cheuk Tsang

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 24 (2024) 3401–3453
Abstract

We study the strongly connected components of the flow graph associated to a veering triangulation, and show that the infinitesimal components must be of a certain form, which have to do with subsets of the triangulation which we call “walls”. We show two applications of this knowledge: first, we fix a proof in the original paper by the first author which introduced veering triangulations; and second, give an alternate proof that veering triangulations induce pseudo-Anosov flows without perfect fits, which was initially proved by Schleimer and Segerman.
