Nearly Euclidean Thurston (NET) maps are simple generalizations of rational Lattes maps. We investigate when such a map has the property that the associated pullback map on Teichmuller space is constant. We also show that no Thurston map of degree 2 has constant pullback map", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-07-04T11:32:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37F10", "37F20" ], "keywords": [ "nonexistence results", "net maps", "thurston map", "constant pullback map", "rational lattes maps" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
