Surfaces and graphs are closely related; there are many parallels between the mapping class groups of finite-type surfaces and finite graphs, where the mapping class group of a finite graph is the outer automorphism group of a free group of (finite) rank. A recent surge of interest in infinite-type surfaces and their mapping class groups begs a natural question: What is the mapping class group of an “infinite” graph? In this talk, I will explain the answer given by Algom-Kfir and Bestvina and present recent work, joint with George Domat (Rice University), and Hannah Hoganson (University of Maryland), on the coarse geometry of such groups.

Surfaces and graphs are closely related; there are many parallels between the mapping class groups of finite-type surfaces and finite graphs, where the mapping class group of a finite graph is the outer automorphism group of a free group of (finite) rank. A recent surge of interest in infinite-type surfaces and their mapping class groups begs a natural question: What is the mapping class group of an “infinite” graph? In this talk, I will explain the answer given by Algom-Kfir and Bestvina and present recent work, joint with George Domat (Rice University), and Hannah Hoganson (University of Maryland), on the coarse geometry of such groups.
