In this paper we study rational functions of the form $ R_{n,a,c}(z) = z^n + \dfrac{a}{z^n} + c, $ with $n$ fixed and at least $3$, and hold either $a$ or $c$ fixed while the other varies. We locate some homeomorphic copies of the…

Using computer graphics and visualization algorithms, we extend in this work the results obtained analytically in [1], on the connectivity domains of alternated Julia sets, defined by switching the dynamics of two quadratic Julia sets. As…

In this paper, we prove that a rational map with a Cantor Julia set carries no invariant line fields on its Julia set. It follows that a structurally stable rational map with a Cantor Julia set is hyperbolic.

We are studying topological properties of the Julia set of the map $F(z, p)=((2z/(p+1)-1)^2, ((p-1)/(p+1))^2)$ of the complex projective plane $PC^2$ to itself. We show a relation of this rational function with an uncountable family of…

Let f and g two rational functions having the same Julia set J_f. Lets suppose that f has a rational indifferent periodic point and that the critical set of f is disjoint of J_f. Then or J_f has to be equal to P^1, a circle, an arc of a…

We give a topological description of the space of quadratic rational maps with superattractive two-cycles: its "non-escape locus" M2 (the analog of the Mandelbrot set M) is locally connected, it is the continuous image of M under a…

Sun Daochun and Yang Lo have shown that many results of the Fatou-Julia iteration theory of rational functions extend to quasiregular self-maps of the Riemann sphere for which the degree exceeds the dilatation. We show that in this context,…

We give explicit examples of pairs of Julia sets of hyperbolic rational maps which are homeomorphic but not quasisymmetrically homeomorphic.

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a dominant rational map which is 1-stable. Let $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ be the first and second dynamical degrees of $f$. If $\lambda_1^2>\lambda_2$, then we show that…

In this article, we show that all admissible rational maps with fixed or period two cluster cycles can be constructed by the mating of polynomials. We also investigate the polynomials which make up the matings that construct these rational…

Relaxed Newton's method is a one-parameter family of root-finding methods that generalizes the classical Newton's method. When viewed as a rational map on the Riemann sphere, this family exhibits rich and subtle global dynamics that depend…

Following the ideas of A.~Douady, we give an alternative proof of the authors' result: for any boundary point $c_0$ of the Mandelbrot set $M$, we can find small quasiconformal copies of $M$ in $M$ that are encaged in nested quasiconformal…

We study the mean-median map as a dynamical system on the space of finite sets of piecewise-affine continuous functions with rational coefficients. We determine the structure of the limit function in the neighbourhood of a distinctive…

It is proved that the Chebyshev's method applied to an entire function $f$ is a rational map if and only if $f(z) = p(z) e^{q(z)}$, for some polynomials $p$ and $q$. These are referred to as rational Chebyshev maps, and their fixed points…

We prove that there exists a homeomorphism $\chi$ between the connectedness locus $\mathcal{M}_{\Gamma}$ for the family $\mathcal{F}_a$ of $(2:2)$ holomorphic correspondences introduced by Bullett and Penrose, and the parabolic Mandelbrot…

We prove that given any $\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_{2d-2}\in \R\setminus\Z$, the support of the bifurcation measure of the moduli space of degree $d$ rational maps coincides with the closure of classes of maps having $2d-2$ neutral cycles of…

Given a polynomial $p$, the degree of its Chebyshev's method $C_p$ is determined. If $p$ is cubic then the degree of $C_p$ is found to be $4,6$ or $7$ and we investigate the dynamics of $C_p$ in these cases. If a cubic polynomial $p$ is…

We prove the existence of rational maps having smooth degenerate Herman rings. This answers a question of Eremenko affirmatively. The proof is based on the construction of smooth Siegel disks by Avila, Buff and Ch\'{e}ritat as well as the…

Let $f$ be a post-critically finite endomorphism (PCF map for short) on $\mathbb{P}^2$, let $J_1$ denote the Julia set and let $J_2$ denote the support of the measure of maximal entropy. In this paper we show that: 1. $J_1\setminus J_2$ is…

We introduce the notions of Fatou and Julia sets in the context of word maps on complex Lie groups and polynomial maps on finite-dimensional associative $\mathbb C$-algebras. For the group-theoretic question, we investigate the dynamics of…
