摘要
We prove a global fixed point theorem for the centralizer of a homeomorphism of the two-dimensional disk D that has attractor-repeller dynamics on the boundary with at least two attractors and two repellers. As one application we give an elementary proof of Morita's Theorem, that the mapping class group of a closed surface S of genus g does not lift to the group of C-2 diffeomorphisms of S and we improve the lower bound for g from 5 to 3
