Abstract

\emph{Rotation numbers} for some maps of \emph{triods} was introduced in \cite{BMR}. The goal of this paper is to study \emph{patterns} of \emph{triods} which don't force other \emph{patterns} with the same \emph{rotation number} which we name \emph{triod twists}. We obtain their complete characterization and show that these \emph{patterns} can be conjugated to \emph{circle rotation} by a \emph{piecewise monotone} map. We also describe the dynamics of \emph{unimodal triod twist patterns} with a given rational \emph{rotation number}.
