Abstract: In this paper, the following problem is studied. Let and
be two domains in the complex plane with
. Suppose that
are two quasiconformal mappings satisfying
. Let
be the mapping in
defined by
(
). If both
and
are uniquely extremal, is
always uniquely extremal? It is shown in this paper that the answer to this problem is no.
