Title: Weaving of Folding Maps
Abstract: A folding map is obtained by a piece of paper (i.e., a $k$-gon) that is folded and mapped to itself. Such a map may be obtained from a real rational map where $z/in /mathbb{C}$ and its complex conjugate $\bar{z}$ are identified. Using natural identifications one may obtain from such a map a generalized pseudo-Anosov map, which will be an invertible map in the $3$-sphere. We also introduce the notion of weaving of maps, which is a formal description of the identifications. Roughly speaking, two maps are represented by the left- and right-shift, with two groups acting on it which yield the identifications. This is joint work with Andre de Carvalho and Toby Hall.
