How to characterize the group of homeomorphisms of unit disk in terms of the group of homeomorphisms of...












0












$begingroup$


Let $G$ be the group of homeomorphisms of unit disk $(D)$ fixing boundary point wise and $P$ be the group of homeomorphisms of plane $mathbb{R}^2$.



Can we characterize $G$ in terms of $P$. Speaking precisely, can we have the result of the form: $gamma$ is in $G$ if and only if $F(gamma)$ is in $P$, where $F$ is some condition or some function (for example it could be in terms of euclidean norm in $mathbb{R}^2$).



We can easily embedd $G$ in $P$ as:
Define a homeomorphism $g:Int(D)rightarrowmathbb{R}^2$ in polar coordinates as $g(r,theta)=(frac{r}{1-r},theta)$. Then the function $f:Grightarrow P$ defined by $f(gamma)=g^{-1}gamma g$ is an embedding. Through $f$ we can study the image of $G$ in $P$ rather than $G$ itself.

The only answer is this.



For $h in P$, let $phi(h) : D to phi(D)$ denote the restriction of $h$ (which is a homeomorphism). Then $phi(h) in G$ if and only if $h(x) = x$ for all $x in S^1 = partial D$.



The "only if" part is trivial. Conversely, assume $h(x) = x$ for all $x in S^1$. We know that $S^1$ separates the plane into two connected components $mathring{D}$ = open unit disk (which is contractible) and $D' = mathbb{R}^2 setminus D$ (which is not contractible). $h(mathring{D})$ must be one of these connected components. But $h(mathring{D}) approx mathring{D}$ is contractible, whereas $h(D') approx D'$ is not. This shows that $h(mathring{D}) = mathring{D}$, i.e. $h(D) = D$. Thus $phi(h) in G$.



Edited:



Here are some examples of homeomorphisms of the plane which fix $S^1$ pointwise.



1) Let $f : (0,infty) to mathbb{R}$ be any continuous map such that $f(1) = 0$. Define
$$h(z) =
begin{cases}
e^{if(lvert z rvert)}z & z ne 0 \
0 & z = 0
end{cases}
$$

In the first line we use the complex multiplication on $mathbb{C} = mathbb{R}^2$. Note that $lvert e^{if(lvert z rvert)} rvert = 1$, i.e $h$ maps each circle with radius $r$ around $0$ homeomorphically onto itself.



2) Let $g : [0,infty) to [0,infty)$ be any continuous strictly monotonic increasing function such that $g(0) = 0, g(1) = 1$ and $g(t) to infty$ as $t to infty$. Define
$$h(z) = g(lvert z rvert) z .$$

Each $g in G$ extends (non.uniquley) to an element of $P$. The elements of $P$ obtained in that way are precisely those in my answer.

What would be an explicite examples of such homeomorphisms $h$ of a plane which fix circle point wise? If I take $h=(x,y)$ on $S^1$ and $(x+2,y+2)$ everywherelse, is this the homeomorphism of plane?

By the way, the map $t(x,y) = (x+2,y+2)$ is a translation. It does not keep $S^1$ fixed So the map which fixes $S^1$ and is $= t$ everywhere else is neither continuous nor bijective.
