Abstract

Not much is known about the dynamics outside the support of the maximal entropy measure μ\mu for holomorphic endomorphisms of CPk\mathbb{CP}^k. In this article we study the structure of the dynamics on the Julia set, which is typically larger than Supp(μ)Supp(\mu). The Julia set is the support of the so-called Green current TT, so it admits a natural filtration by the supports of the exterior powers of TT. For 1qk1\leq q \leq k, let Jq=Supp(Tq)J_q= Supp(T^q). We show that for a generic point of JqJq+1J_q\setminus J_{q+1} there are at least (kq)(k-q) "Fatou directions" in the tangent space. We also give estimates for the rate of expansion in directions transverse to the Fatou directions.
