A result of Handel–Mosher guarantees that the ratio of logarithms of stretch factors of any fully irreducible automorphism of the free group FN and its inverse is bounded by a constant CN. In this short note, we show that this constant CN cannot be chosen independent of the rank N.

Un énoncé de Handel–Mosher certifie que le rapport des logarithmes des facteurs d'étirement d'un automorphisme iréductible du groupe libre FN et de son inverse est borné par une constante CN. Nous montrons dans la présente courte note que cette constante CN ne peut pas être choisie indépendante de N.
