Abstract

Let S be a closed oriented surface and G a finite group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of S whose orbit space has genus at least two. There is a natural group homomorphism from the G-centralizer in Diff+(S) to the G-centralizer in Sp(H1(S)). We give a sufficient condition for its image to be a subgroup of finite index.
