Abstract: We study the problem to extend an immersed circle f in the 2-dimensional sphere to an immersion of the disc. We analyze existence and uniqueness for this problems in terms of the combinatorial structure of a word assigned to f. Our techniques are based on ideas of Blank who studied the extension problem in case of a planar target.
