On Cannon cone types and vector-valued multiplicative functions for genus-two-surface-group

We consider Cannon cone types for a surface group of genus $g$, and we give algebraic criteria for establishing the cone type of a given cone and of all its sub-cones. We also re-prove that the number of cone types is exactly $8g(2g

• 1)+1.$Inthegenus$2$case,weexplicitlyprovidethe$48\times 48$ matrix of cone types, $M,$ and we prove that $M$ is primitive, hence Perron-Frobenius. Finally we define vector-valued multiplicative functions and we show how to compute their values by means of $M$.
