Left-Right Pairs and Complex Forests of Infinite Rooted Binary Trees
read the original abstract
Let $\mathcal{D}_0:= \{x + iy \ \vert x, y >0\}$, and let $(L, R)$ be a pair of M\"{o}bius transformations corresponding to $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{N}_0)$ matrices such that $R(\mathcal{D}_0)$ and $L(\mathcal{D}_0)$ are disjoint. Given such a pair (called a left-right pair), we can construct a directed graph $\mathcal{F}(L, R)$ with vertices $\mathcal{D}_0$ and edges $\{(z, R(z))\}_{z \in \mathcal{D}_0} \cup \{(z, L(z))\}_{z \in \mathcal{D}_0}$, which is a collection of infinite binary trees. We answer two questions of Nathanson by classifying all the pairs of elements of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{N}_0)$ whose corresponding M\"{o}bius transformations form left-right pairs and showing that trees in $\mathcal{F}(L, R)$ are always rooted.
