Abstract

A translation surface is a surface formed by identifying edges of a collection of polygons in the complex plane that are parallel and of equal length using only translations. We determined that the same circle packing can be realized on varying translation surfaces in a certain stratum. We also determined possible complexities of contacts graphs and provide a bound on this complexity in some low-genus strata. Finally, we established the possibility of certain contacts graphs' complexities in strata with genus greater than 2.
