Abstract

In this paper we examine an orbit of simply connected wandering domains for the function f(z)=zcosz+2π{f(z) = z\cos z+2\pi}. They are noteworthy in that they are non-congruent but arise from a simple closed form function. Moreover, the shape of the wandering domains, suitably scaled, converges in the Hausdorff metric to the filled-in parabolic basin of the quadratic z2+c{z^2+c} with c=14c=\tfrac{1}{4}, commonly named the ``cauliflower''. We complete our analysis by classifying the wandering domains within the ninefold framework in \cite{benini+2021}, finding they are contracting and the diameters of the wandering domains tend to zero. To conclude we propose an expansion of the analysis to a wider family of functions and discuss some potential results.
