Cylinder decompositions on geometric armadillo tails
Abstract
We study a class of finite-area, infinite-type translation surfaces, and find an explicit cylinder decomposition on these surfaces which do not manifest on finite-type translation surfaces. Each cylinder decomposition contains a special curve which we show is an obstruction to the existence of certain affine diffeomorphisms.
