Abstract
In 1991 Llibre and MacKay proved that if is a 2-torus homeomorphism isotopic to identity and the rotation set of has a non empty interior then has positive topological entropy. Here, we give a converselike theorem. We show that the interior of the rotation set of a 2-torus diffeomorphism isotopic to identity of positive topological entropy is not empty, under the additional hypotheses that is topologically transitive and irreducible. We also give examples that show that these hypotheses are necessary.
