A hyperbolic transcendental entire function with connected Fatou set is said to be "of disjoint type". It is known that a disjoint-type function provides a model for the dynamics near infinity of all maps in the same parameter space; hence…

Let f be a transcendental entire function that omits a complex value a. We show that for every simply connected region D that does not contain a the full preimage of D is disconnected. We conjecture that the same holds if one only assumes…

We investigate the set I(f) of points that converge to infinity under iteration of the map f(z) = e^z-1 and show that it is the disjoint union of countably many rays and uncountable union of infinite sets whose points escape to infinity…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function, and let $U,V\subset\mathbb{C}$ be disjoint simply-connected domains. Must one of $f^{-1}(U)$ and $f^{-1}(V)$ be disconnected? In 1970, Baker implicitly gave a positive answer to this question, in…

The escaping set of an entire function is the set of points that tend to infinity under iteration. We consider subsets of the escaping set defined in terms of escape rates and obtain upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff measure of these…

We show that the set of Julia limiting directions of a transcendental-type $K$-quasiregular mapping $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^n$ must contain a component of a certain size, depending on the dimension $n$, the maximal dilatation $K$, and…

We prove that there exists a function $f:\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ such that for any positive integer $k$, if $T$ is a strongly $4k$-connected tournament with minimum out-degree at least $f(k)$, then $T$ is $k$-linked. This makes…

Let $g$ and $h$ be transcendental entire functions and let $f$ be a continuous map of the complex plane into itself with $f\circ g=h\circ f.$ Then $g$ and $h$ are said to be semiconjugated by $f$ and $f$ is called a semiconjugacy. We…

Let f be an entire function that has only finitely many critical and asymptotic values. Up to topological equivalence, the function $f$ is determined by combinatorial information, more precisely by an infinite graph known as a…

Let $E_{\la}(z)=\la {\rm exp}(z), \ \lambda\in \mathbb C$ be the complex exponential family. For all functions in the family there is a unique asymptotic value at 0 (and no critical values). For a fixed $\la$, the set of points in $\mathbb…

We study the dynamical behaviour of points in the boundaries of simply connected invariant Baker domains $U$ of meromorphic maps $f$ with a finite degree on $U$. We prove that if $f|_U$ is of hyperbolic or simply parabolic type, then almost…

Let $f$ be an entire function and denote by $f^\#$ be the spherical derivative of $f$ and by $f^n$ the $n$-th iterate of $f$. For an open set $U$ intersecting the Julia set $J(f)$, we consider how fast $\sup_{z\in U} (f^n)^\#(z)$ and…

The fast escaping set of a transcendental entire function is the set of all points which tend to infinity under iteration as fast as compatible with the growth of the function. We study the analogous set for quasiregular mappings in higher…

The family of exponential maps $f_a(z)= e^z+a$ is of fundamental importance in the study of transcendental dynamics. Here we consider the topological structure of certain subsets of the Julia set $J(f_a)$. When $a\in (-\infty,-1)$, and more…

In 1988, Mayer proved the remarkable fact that infinity is an explosion point for the set of endpoints of the Julia set of an exponential map that has an attracting fixed point. That is, the set is totally separated (in particular, it does…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function. By a result of Rippon and Stallard, there exist points whose orbit escapes arbitrarily slowly. By using a range of techniques to prove new covering results, we extend their theorem to prove the…

The escaping set of an entire function consists of the points in the complex plane that tend to infinity under iteration. This set plays a central role in the dynamics of transcendental entire functions. The goal of this survey is to…

Recently Bishop constructed the first example of a bounded-type transcendental entire function with a wandering domain using a new technique called quasiconfomal folding. It is easy to check that his method produces an entire function of…

We prove that entire transcendental holomorphic functions with an omitted value have infinite entropy. A proof for general transcendental entire functions will be given in an upcoming paper.

For a function $f\colon [0,1]\to\mathbb R$, we consider the set $E(f)$ of points at which $f$ cuts the real axis. Given $f\colon [0,1]\to\mathbb R$ and a Cantor set $D\subset [0,1]$ with $\{0,1\}\subset D$, we obtain conditions equivalent…
