On boundaries of parallelizable regions of flows of free mappings.
Let be a triangulable compact manifold. We prove that, among closed subgroups of (the identity component of the group of homeomorphisms of ), the subgroup consisting of volume preserving elements is maximal.
We find all continuous iterative roots of nth order of a Sperner homeomorphism of the plane onto itself.
We find the minimum dilatation of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms that stabilize an orientable foliation on surfaces of genus three, four, or five, and provide a lower bound for genus six to eight. Our technique also simplifies Cho and Ham’s proof of the least dilatation of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms on a genus two surface. For genus to , the minimum dilatation is the smallest Salem number for polynomials of degree .
Let be a without fixed point lift to the plane of a homeomorphism of the open annulus isotopic to the identity and without wandering point. We show that admits a -invariant dense open set on which it is conjugate to a translation and we study the action of on the compactly connected components of the closed and without interior set .
