The Fatou-Julia iteration theory of rational functions has been extended to quasiregular mappings in higher dimension by various authors. The purpose of this paper is an analogous extension of the iteration theory of transcendental entire…

A cubic polynomial $P$ with a non-repelling fixed point $b$ is said to be \emph{immediately renormalizable} if there exists a (connected) quadratic-like invariant filled Julia set $K^*$ such that $b\in K^*$. In that case exactly one…

The Poincar\'e recurrence theorem shows that conservative systems in a bounded region of phase space eventually return arbitrarily close to their initial state after a finite amount of time. An analogous behavior occurs in certain quantum…

For a rational function $R$, let $N_R(z)=z-\frac{R(z)}{R'(z)}.$ Any such $N_R$ is referred to as a Newton map. We determine all the rational functions $R$ for which $N_R$ has exactly two attracting fixed points, one of which is an…

Renormalizations can be considered as building blocks of complex dynamical systems. This phenomenon has been widely studied for iterations of polynomials of one complex variable. Concerning non-polynomial hyperbolic rational maps, a recent…

In this paper, we study rigidity of polynomials of arbitrary degree in the presence of neutral dynamics. Specifically, we focus on {non-renormalizable} (in the sense of Douady and Hubbard) complex polynomials of degree $d \geqslant 2$ that…

The paper deals with dynamics of expanding Lorenz maps, which appear in a natural way as Poincar\`e maps in geometric models of well-known Lorenz attractor. Using both analytical and symbolic approaches, we study connections between…

We realize a dynamical decomposition for a post-critically finite rational map which admits a combinatorial decomposition. We split the Riemann sphere into two completely invariant subsets. One is a subset of the Julia set consisting of…

The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…

In this paper, we study multiplicative dependence of values of polynomials or rational functions over a number field. As an application, we obtain new results on multiplicative dependence in the orbits of a univariate polynomial dynamical…

Let P(z) and Q(y) be polynomials of the same degree k>=1 in the complex variables z and y, respectively. In this extended abstract we study the non-linear functional equation P(z)=Q(y(z)), where y(z) is restricted to be analytic in a…

A rational function is the ratio of two complex polynomials in one variable without common roots. Its degree is the maximum of the degrees of the numerator and the denominator. Rational functions belong to the same class if one turns into…

For the family of complex rational functions of the form R(z)= z^n + a/z^n+b, known as "Generalized McMullen maps", for non-zero a, and integer n fixed and at least 3, we describe the apparent phenomena of baby Julia sets in parameter space…

Statistics of Poincar\' e recurrence for a class of circle maps, including sub-critical, critical, and super-critical cases, are studied. It is shown how the topological differences in the various types of the dynamics are manifested in the…
