Abstract:
We study the algebraic structure of several groups of differentiable diffeomorphisms in . We show that any given sufficiently smooth diffeomorphism can be written as the composition of a finite number of diffeomorphisms which are symmetric under reflection, essentially one-dimensional and about as differentiable as the given one.
