| contents | We study a finite sequence of graphs, beginning with the curve graph and ending with a graph quasi-isometric to a tree. There is a Lipschitz map from one graph in the sequence to the next. This sequence was first introduced by Hamenstädt. We prove (as conjectured by Hamenstädt) that the graphs in this sequence are hyperbolic and that the coarse fibers of the maps in the sequence are quasi-trees. This gives an upper bound on the asymptotic dimension of each graph in the sequence and as a result, an upper bound on the asymptotic dimension of the curve graph. Additionally, we show that the action of the mapping class group on each graph in the sequence is acylindrical, and classify the boundary and actions of individual mapping classes for each graph in the sequence. |
