Popis: Nearly Euclidean Thurston (NET) maps are described by simple diagrams which admit a natural notion of size. Given a size bound $C$, there are finitely many diagrams of size at most $C$. Given a NET map $F$ presented by a diagram of size at most $C$, the problem of determining whether $F$ is equivalent to a rational function is, in theory, a finite computation. We give bounds for the size of this computation in terms of $C$ and one other natural geometric quantity. This result partially explains the observed effectiveness of the computer program NETmap in deciding rationality.
