Codes for Square-Tiled Surfaces
In this paper, we use permutation elements to record cylinder decompositions of a square-tiled surface $X$. Collecting all such possible permutation elements that record cylinder decompositions, we can enumerate the $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ orbit of a given surface $X$ and give a method to determine whether or not a matrix $A\in SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ is the differential of an affine diffeomorphism of $X$.
