Covering maps and hulls in the curve complex
This thesis studies the coarse geometry of the curve complex using intersection number techniques. We show how weighted intersection numbers can be studied using appropriate singular Euclidean surfaces. We then introduce a coarse analogue of the convex hull of a finite set of vertices in the curve c...
