The fixed point of the parabolic renormalization operator
Abstract
We study parabolic renormalization of analytic germs with a simple parabolic point at the origin. We describe a class of maps which admit a maximal analytic extension to a Jordan domain, and whose covering properties have an explicit topological model. We demonstrate that is invariant under parabolic renormalization, and that Inou-Shishikura fixed point lies in . We conjecture that successive parabolic renormalizations of every map in converge to at a geometric rate. We further present a numerical method for computing the Taylor's expansion of with a high accuracy. Our approach also allows us to compute the images of the maximal domain of analyticity of . Finally, we obtain numerical estimates on the spectral radius of the differential of the parabolic renormalization operator at .
