Abstract

We prove that each injective simplicial map from the complex of arcs of a compact,
connected, nonorientable surface with nonempty boundary to itself is induced by a
homeomorphism of the surface. We also prove that the automorphism group of the
arc complex is isomorphic to the quotient of the mapping class group of the surface
by its center.
