Abstract

Consider two objects associated to the Iterated Function System (IFS) {1+λz,1+λz}\{1+\lambda z,-1+\lambda z\}: the locus M\mathcal{M} of parameters λD{0}\lambda\in\mathbb{D}\setminus\{0\} for which the corresponding attractor is connected; and the locus M0\mathcal{M}_0 of parameters for which the related attractor contains 00. The set M\mathcal{M} can also be characterized as the locus of parameters for which the attractor of the IFS {1+λz,λz,1+λz}\{1+\lambda z, \lambda z, -1+\lambda z\} contains λ1\lambda^{-1}. Exploiting the asymptotic similarity of M\mathcal{M} and M0\mathcal{M}_0 with the respective associated attractors, we give sufficient conditions on λM\lambda\in\partial\mathcal{M} or M0\partial\mathcal{M}_0 to guarantee it is path accessible from the complement DM\mathbb{D}\setminus\mathcal{M}.
