Abstract

Let ff be a post-critically finite endomorphism (PCF map for short) on P2\mathbb{P}^2, let J1J_1 denote the Julia set and let J2J_2 denote the support of the measure of maximal entropy. In this paper we show that: 1. J1J2J_1\setminus J_2 is contained in the union of the (finitely many) basins of critical component cycles and stable manifolds of sporadic super-saddle cycles. 2. For every xJ2x\in J_2 which is not contained in the stable manifold of a sporadic super-saddle cycle, there is no Fatou disk containing xx. Here sporadic means that the super-saddle cycle is not contained in a critical component cycle. Under the additional assumption that all branches of PC(f)PC(f) are smooth and intersect transversally, we show that there is no sporadic super-saddle cycle. Thus in this case J1J2J_1\setminus J_2 is contained in the union of the basins of critical component cycles, and for every xJ2x\in J_2 there is no Fatou disk containing xx. As consequences of our result: 1.We answer some questions of Fornaess-Sibony about the non-wandering set for PCF maps on P2\mathbb{P}^2 with no sporadic super-saddle cycles. 2. We give a new proof of de Th\'elin's laminarity of the Green current in J1J2J_1\setminus J_2 for PCF maps on P2\mathbb{P}^2. 3. We show that for PCF maps on P2\mathbb{P}^2 an invariant compact set is expanding if and only if it does not contain critical points, and we obtain characterizations of PCF maps on P2\mathbb{P}^2 which are expanding on J2J_2 or satisfy Axiom A.
