Summary: A disjoint rotation map is an interval exchange transformation (IET) on the unit interval that acts by rotation on a finite number of invariant subintervals. It is currently unknown whether the group \(\mathcal{E}\) of all IETs possesses any non-abelian free subgroups. It is shown that it is not possible for a disjoint rotation map to occur in a subgroup of \(\mathcal{E}\) that is isomorphic to a non-abelian free group.
