Much recent work on the iterates of a transcendental entire function $f$ has been motivated by Eremenko's conjecture that all the components of the escaping set $I(f)$ are unbounded. Here we show that if $I(f)$ is disconnected, then the set…
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…
We study the dynamics of iterated cosine maps $E\colon z \mapsto ae^z+be^{-z},$ with $a,b \in \C\setminus \{0\}$. We show that the points which converge to infinity under iteration are organized in the form of rays and, as in the…
We investigate the set $I$ of parameters $\kappa$ for which the singular value of $z\mapsto e^z+\kappa$ converges to $\infty$. The set $I$ consists of uncountably many parameter rays, plus landing points of some of these rays. We show that…
We investigate the set of parameters $\kappa\in\C$ for which the singular orbit $(0,e^{\kappa},...)$ of $E_{\kappa}(z):=\exp(z+\kappa)$ converges to $\infty$. These parameters are organized in smooth curves in parameter space called…
We determine the exact Borel class of the points whose iterates under $\exp(z)+a$ tend to infinity. We also prove that the sets of non-escaping Julia points for many of these functions are topologically equivalent.
We investigate some connectedness properties of the set of points K(f) where the iterates of an entire function f are bounded. In particular, we describe a class of transcendental entire functions for which an analogue of the…
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…
Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function of finite order which has an attracting periodic point $z_0$ of period at least $2$. Suppose that the set of singularities of the inverse of $f$ is finite and contained in the component $U$ of the…
We enumerate the connected graphs that contain a linear number of edges with respect to the number of vertices. So far, only the first term of the asymptotics was known. Using analytic combinatorics, i.e. generating function manipulations,…
We study the structure of the asymptotic expansion of the probability that a combinatorial object is connected. We show that the coefficients appearing in those asymptotics are integers and can be interpreted as the counting sequences of…
A transcendental entire function is called criniferous if every point in its escaping set can eventually be connected to infinity by a curve of escaping points. Many transcendental entire functions with bounded singular set have this…
We consider parameters $\lambda$ for which $0$ is preperiodic under the map $z\mapsto\lambda e^z$. Given $k$ and $l$, let $n(r)$ be the number of $\lambda$ satisfying $0<|\lambda|\leq r$ such that $0$ is mapped after $k$ iterations to a…
We study the family of singular perturbations of Blaschke products $B_{a,\lambda}(z)=z^3\frac{z-a}{1-\overline{a}z}+\frac{\lambda}{z^2}$. We analyse how the connectivity of the Fatou components varies as we move continuously the parameter…
We find the asymptotic number of connected graphs with $k$ vertices and $k-1+l$ edges when $k,l$ approach infinity, reproving a result of Bender, Canfield and McKay. We use the {\em probabilistic method}, analyzing breadth-first search on…
For a transcendental entire function f, we study the set of points BU(f) whose iterates under f neither escape to infinity nor are bounded. We give new results on the connectedness properties of this set and show that, if U is a Fatou…
This article studies the singular values of entire functions of the form $E^k (z)+P(z)$ where $E^k$ denotes the $k-$times composition of $e^z$ with itself and $P$ is any non-constant polynomial. It is proved that the full preimage of each…
Consider the standard family of complex H\'enon maps $H(x,y) = (p(x) - ay, x)$, where $p$ is a quadratic polynomial and $a$ is a complex parameter. Let $U^{+}$ be the set of points that escape to infinity under forward iterations. The…
We study the different rates of escape of points under iteration by holomorphic self-maps of $\mathbb C^*=\mathbb C\setminus\{ 0\}$ for which both 0 and $\infty$ are essential singularities. Using annular covering lemmas we construct…
