Resumo

There are two objects naturally associated with a braid beta is an element of B-n of pseudo-Anosov type: a (relative) pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism phi(beta) : S-2 -> S-2; and the finite-volume complete hyperbolic structure on the 3-manifold M beta obtained by excising the braid closure of fi, together with its braid axis, from S-3. We show the disconnect between these objects, by exhibiting a family of braids [beta(q) ; q is an element of Q boolean AND(0, 1/3]] with the properties that, on the one hand, there is a fixed homeomorphism phi(0) : S-2 -> S-2 to which the (suitably normalized) homeomorphisms phi beta(q) converge as q -> 0, while, on the other hand, there are infinitely many distinct hyperbolic 3-manifolds which arise as geometric limits of the form lim(k ->infinity)M(beta qk), for sequences q(k) -> 0 (AU)
