DescriptionThe mapping class group of a surface has been well studied, particularly for compact surfaces and allowing for permutations of finitely many marked points. Many of these results though do not automatically extend for non-compact surfaces, particularly for infinite-type surfaces. A surface is of finite-type if its fundamental group is finitely generated, and it is of infinite-type if its fundamental group cannot be finitely generated. While work has been done by many authors to show that mapping class groups of finite-type surfaces are generated by torsion elements, not much has been done for the infinite-type case. We extend torsion generation of mapping class groups for finite-type surfaces to mapping class groups for specific infinite-type surfaces. We show that for the cases of infinite-type surfaces that we work on, their mapping class groups are topologically generated by involutions. In some cases, we are able to get the topological generating set to be a finite set, which we can view as a version of finite generation of such mapping class groups.
