Abstract

We construct an infinite sequence of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms without fixed points and leaving invariant a sequence of orientable measured foliations on the same topological surface and the same stratum of the space of Abelian differentials. The existence of such a sequence shows that all pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms fixing orientable measured foliations cannot be obtained by the Rauzy–Veech induction strategy.
