| contents | Let $f$ be a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism on a closed, oriented surface. We give an effective construction of Markov partitions for $f$ based on a simple combinatorial criterion deciding when an immersed graph bounds a Markov partition. This yields an explicit algorithm: from a point $z$ at the intersection of stable and unstable separatrices of a singularity of $f$, and a sufficiently large integer $n$, it produces a partition $\mathcal{R}(f,z,n)$.
Applying the algorithm to the first intersection points of $f$ we produces the set of primitive Markov partitions. We prove the existence of an integer $n(f)$, the compatibility order of $f$, depending only on the conjugacy class of $f$, such that $\mathcal{R}(f,z,n)$ exists for all $n\ge n(f)$ and all first intersection points $z$. Each geometric Markov partition $\mathcal{R}$ has an associated geometric type $T(f,\mathcal{R})$, extending the incidence matrix; it result the geometric type is constant along orbits of primitive partitions, and for $n\ge n(f)$ the set $\mathcal{T}(f,n)$ of primitive geometric types is finite.
By \cite{IntiThesis}, this family is canonical: two maps are topologically conjugate by an orientation-preserving homeomorphism iff they share the compatibility order and the primitive geometric types for some $n\ge n(f)$. The types in $\mathcal{T}(f,n(f))$ are minimal and are the canonical Markov partitions of $f$. |
