Botany of irreducible automorphisms of free groups

Thierry Coulbois and Arnaud Hilion

Vol. 256 (2012), No. 2, 291–307
Abstract

We give a classification of iwip (i.e., fully irreducible) outer automorphisms of the free group, by discussing the properties of their attracting and repelling trees.

Keywords
free group automorphisms, real trees, laminations, iwip
