For manipulating curves and measured laminations on surfaces and producing mapping tori.

Project description

PyPI version PyPI license Travis build status Coveralls status

Flipper is a program for computing the action of mapping classes on laminations on punctured surfaces using ideal triangulation coordinates. It can decide the Nielsen–Thurston type of a given mapping class and, for pseudo-Anosov mapping classes, construct a layered, veering triangulation of their mapping torus, as described by Agol.

Flipper officially supports Python 2.7 and 3.5 – 3.7. It also runs on Sage which is currently the fastest way to run it. If you need even more speed (~25% more) then consider running flipper with the -O optimise bytecode option.
