Inou and Shishikura provided a class of maps that is invariant by near-parabolic renormalization, and that has proved extremely useful in the study of the dynamics of quadratic polynomials. We provide here another construction, using more…
The purpose of this paper is to initiate a theory concerning the dynamics of asymptotically holomorphic polynomial-like maps. Our maps arise naturally as deep renormalizations of asymptotically holomorphic extensions of $C^r$ ($r>3$)…
Let $ R $ be a rational map with totally disconnected Julia set $ J(R). $ If the postcritical set on $ J(R) $ contains a non-persistently recurrent (or conical) point, then we show that the map $ R $ can not be a structurally stable map.
We suggest a way to associate to a rational map of the Riemann sphere a three dimensional object called a hyperbolic orbifold 3-lamination. The relation of this object to the map is analogous to the relation of a hyperbolic 3-manifold to a…
It is known that the disconnected Julia set of any polynomial map does not contain buried Julia components. But such Julia components may arise for rational maps. The first example is due to Curtis T. McMullen who provided a family of…
In 1980's, Thurston established a combinatorial characterization for post-critically finite rational maps. This criterion was then extended by Cui, Jiang, and Sullivan to sub-hyperbolic rational maps. The goal of this paper is to present a…
There is a well developed renormalization theory of real analytic critical circle maps by de Faria, de Melo, and Yampolsky. In this paper, we extend Yampolsky's result on hyperbolicity of renormalization periodic points to a larger class of…
We prove that every wandering exposed Julia component of a rational map is to a singleton, provided that each wandering Julia component containing critical points is non-recurrent. Moreover, we show that the Julia set contains only finitely…
The Fatou-Julia theory for rational functions has been extended both to transcendental meromorphic functions and more recently to several different types of quasiregular mappings in higher dimensions. We extend the iterative theory to…
We proved the so called complex bounds for multimodal, infinitely renormalizable analytic maps with bounded combinatorics: deep renormalizations have polynomial-like extensions with definite modulus. The complex bounds is the first step to…
We study the dynamics of the renormalization operator for multimodal maps. In particular, we prove the exponential convergence of this operator for infinitely renormalizable maps with same bounded combinatorial type.
In this paper, we study quasi post-critically finite degenerations for rational maps. We construct limits for such degenerations as geometrically finite rational maps on a finite tree of Riemann spheres. We prove the boundedness for such…
Lorenz maps are maps of the unit interval with one critical point of order rho>1, and a discontinuity at that point. They appear as return maps of leafs of sections of the geometric Lorenz flow. We construct real a priori bounds for…
We introduce a class of infinitely renormalizable, unicritical diffeomorphisms of the disk (with a non-degenerate "critical point"). In this class of dynamical systems, we show that under renormalization, maps eventually become…
We discuss the dynamic and structural properties of polynomial semigroups, a natural extension of iteration theory to random (walk) dynamics, where the semigroup $G$ of complex polynomials (under the operation of composition of functions)…
The paper deals with Newton maps of complex exponential functions and a surgery tool developed by P. Ha\"issinsky. The concept of "Postcritically minimal" Newton maps of complex exponential functions are introduced, analogous to…

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…
All rational parametric curves with prescribed polynomial tangent direction form a vector space. Via tangent directions with rational norm, this includes the important case of rational Pythagorean hodograph curves. We study vector subspaces…
We give three families of parabolic rational maps and show that every Cantor set of circles as the Julia set of a non-hyperbolic rational map must be quasisymmetrically equivalent to the Julia set of one map in these families for suitable…
