Oct 18, 2018 at 2:28 comment added user101010 @JeanRaimbault Thanks this is perfect. I am trying to do this algorithmically also - is it clear how lemma 2.2 can be made effective? I.e. given the surface with the labeled generators and a surjection to a free group, how do we find the set of curves to attach to the surface to realize the handlebody that realizes the surjection?

Oct 15, 2018 at 16:45 comment added Jean Raimbault I would say no, because it seems unlikely to me that any automorphism of the free group induces an homeomorphism of the handlebody, and barring that I have no idea about your lifting problem and I see no indication about it in Leininger--Reid's arguments (but I'm not a specialist so I might be missing something obvious).
Oct 15, 2018 at 8:17 comment added YCor Do you know if the set of surjective homomorphisms onto $F_g$ is a singleton modulo $Aut(\pi_1(S))$ (instead of modding out by $Aut(\pi_1(S))\times Aut(F_g)$)? this is related to the question whether automorphisms of $F_k$ can be lifted to automorphisms of $\pi_1(S)$.
