Generators of the Mapping Class Group of a Nonorientable Punctured Surface
Abstract
Let $\textrm{Mod}(N_{g, p})$ denote the mapping class group of a
nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures. For $g\geq14$, we show
that $\textrm{Mod}(N_{g, p})$ can be generated by five elements or by six
involutions.
