Canonical lamination realization conjecture for the stretch unit sphere
Canonical lamination realization conjecture for the stretch unit sphere
Let be a closed surface of genus , let be a hyperbolic structure, and let be a vector in the stretch unit sphere of . Denote by the lamination associated with . Canonical lamination realization conjecture. For every vector in the stretch unit sphere of there exists a hyperbolic structure such that is the canonical lamination maximally stretched by the homotopy class of the identity . The conjecture proposes that every direction in the stretch unit sphere arises as the canonical maximally stretched lamination of an identity map to some hyperbolic structure; the supplied text gives no resolution or further evidence.
