Abstract

Let g(z)=0zp(t)exp(q(t))dt+cg(z)=\int_0^zp(t)\exp(q(t))\,dt+c where p,qp,q are polynomials and cCc\in\mathbb{C}, and let ff be the function from Newton's method for gg. We show that under suitable assumptions the Julia set of ff has Lebesgue measure zero. Together with a theorem by Bergweiler, our result implies that fn(z)f^n(z) converges to zeros of gg almost everywhere in C\mathbb{C} if this is the case for each zero of gg''. In order to prove our result, we establish general conditions ensuring that Julia sets have Lebesgue measure zero.
