“…Let a 1 , a 2 , a 3 be distinct, nonisotopic, nonseparating two-sided simple closed curves with nonorientable complements. We say that they form a triangle if each geometric intersection i(a i , a j ) = 1, for all i = j (see [2]). A triangle is called orientation reversing if there are Dehn twists about these curves, denoted by t a 1 , t a 2 and t a 3 , so that…”
