Abstract
We explicitly construct pseudo-Anosov maps on the closed surface of genus with orientable foliations whose stretch factor is a Salem number with algebraic degree . Using this result, we show that there is a pseudo-Anosov map whose stretch factor has algebraic degree , for each positive even integer such that .
