Uniqueness conjecture for Schottky projective structures
Uniqueness conjecture for Schottky projective structures
Fix a marking of the projective structure on with Schottky holonomy . Let be the collection of projective structures on with holonomy and the same orientation as . Let be the subgroup of orientation-preserving mapping classes satisfying , and let be the isotopy classes of multiloops consisting of disjoint admissible loops on . For a mapping class , write for its minimal subsurface of nontrivial action. Uniqueness conjecture. Every can be obtained by changing the marking of by a unique and grafting along a unique such that and are disjoint; equivalently,
Theorem supplies such a pair without guaranteeing disjointness, so the conjecture asserts that the intersection can always be uniquely resolved. The subgroup is known to be generated by Dehn twists along loops in , but the asserted uniqueness with disjoint support remains open.
