Abstract

In this paper the results of Shub and Sacksteder are extended to the following theorem: let ƒ1 and ƒ2 be two commuting, expansive, orientation-preserving maps of the circle with a common fixed point and with both in C1+ε or Cr, r ≥2. Assume ƒ1 is p-to-1 and ƒ2 is q-to-1 where p and q generate a nonlacunary semigroup. Then there exists a diffeomorphism g of the same class such that gƒ1g−1 = TP and gƒ2g−1 = Tq.
