Abstract
The Douady-Earle extension produces a homeomorphism of a disk from a homeomorphism of its bounding circle. It is based on a center of mass computation at the center and is extended to the disk by naturality. Quasiconformal homeomorphisms are the extensions of quasisymmetric ones. There are several approaches to the numerical computation of the extension defined by a redistribution of mass. The algorithms of Abikoff-Ye and Milnor turn out to be the same —even in the more general situation of nontrivial probability measures on the unit circle. The numerical computation uses measures with finite support; in that case, the iterator has rational square. We obtain an easy approach to the proof of the validity of the algorithm and to its calculation. New proofs and additional properties of the computation of the barycenter and the extension are also presented.
