Nonsmoothable, locally indicable group actions on the interval

Danny Calegari

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 8 (2008) 609–613

DOI: 10.2140/agt.2008.8.609

Abstract

By the Thurston Stability Theorem, a group of C1 orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms of the closed unit interval is locally indicable. We show that the local order structure of orbits gives a stronger criterion for nonsmoothability that can be used to produce new examples of locally indicable groups of homeomorphisms of the interval that are not conjugate to groups of C1 diffeomorphisms.
