[For the entire collection see Zbl 0755.00019.] The authors deal with the forcing relation induced on cyclic permutations of finite ordered sets. The permutation \(\theta\) of \(\{1,\dots,m\}\) forces the permutation \(\pi\) of \(\{1,\dots,n\}\) if every continuous map of the interval which has a representative of \(\theta\) also has a representative of \(\pi\). The forcing relation is a partial order. The authors extend the geometric version of Jungreis' algorithm [\textit{I. Jungreis}, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 325, No. 1, 319-344 (1991; Zbl 0715.58028)], and the authors with \textit{M. Misiurewicz} and \textit{I. Mulvey} [ibid. 333, No. 2, 701-707 (1992; Zbl 0764.58026)] for deciding whether \(\theta\) forces \(\pi\) for arbitrary \(\theta\) and \(\pi\).
