Since the 1980s, much progress has been done in completely determining which functions share a Julia set. The polynomial case was completely solved in 1995, and it was shown that the symmetries of the Julia set play a central role in…

The goal of this article is to study a rigidity property of Julia sets of certain classes of automorphisms in $\mathbb{C}^k$, $k \ge 3.$ First, we study the relation between two polynomial shift-like maps in $\mathbb{C}^k$, $k \ge 3$, that…

Given a polynomial diffeomorphism f: C^2 -> C^2 there is a set $J_f\subset{\bf C}^2$ which we call the Julia set of f. The set $J_f\subset C^2$ plays the role of the Julia set $J\subset{\bf C}$ for a polynomial map of C. In the study of…

We introduce Schottky maps-conformal maps between relative Schottky sets, and study their local rigidity properties. This continues the investigations of relative Schottky sets initiated in [S. Merenkov, "Planar relative Schottky sets and…

We continue the description of Mandelbrot and Multibrot sets and of Julia sets in terms of fibers which was begun in IMS preprints 1998/12 and 1998/13a. The question of local connectivity of these sets is discussed in terms of fibers and…

Suppose that a $X$ is an \emph{unshielded} plane continuum (i.e., $X$ coincides with the boundary of the unbounded complementary component of $X$). Then there exists a \emph{finest monotone} map $m:X\to L$, where $L$ is a locally connected…

We study rigidity of rational maps that come from Newton's root finding method for polynomials of arbitrary degrees. We establish dynamical rigidity of these maps: each point in the Julia set of a Newton map is either rigid (i.e. its orbit…

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…

We prove a non-abelian arboreal Galois group result for certain maps with non-real Julia set at an archimedean place. We investigate the question of determining which polynomials defined over $\mathbb{R}$ have real Julia set. Finally we…

The no invariant line fields conjecture is one of the main outstanding problems in traditional complex dynamics. In this paper we consider non-autonomous iteration where one works with compositions of sequences of polynomials with suitable…

Based on the weak expansion property of a long iteration of a family of quasi-Blaschke products near the unit circle established recently, we prove that the Julia sets of a number of transcendental entire functions with bounded type Siegel…

In this paper, we consider random iterations of polynomial maps $z^2 +c_n$ where $c_n$ are complex-valued independent random variables following the uniform distribution on the closed disk with center $c$ and radius $r$. The aim of this…

In this Note, we present recent developments in the Renormalization Theory of quadratic polynomials and discuss their applications, with an emphasis on the MLC conjecture, the problem of local connectivity of the Mandelbrot set, and on its…

We prove that topologically conjugate non-renormalizable polynomials are quasi-conformally conjugate. From this we derive that each such polynomial can be approximated by a hyperbolic polynomial. As a by product we prove that the Julia set…

We will show the Mandelbrot set $M$ is locally conformally inhomogeneous: the only conformal map $f$ defined in an open set $U$ intersecting $\partial M$ and satisfying $f(U\cap\partial M)\subset \partial M$ is the identity map. The proof…

We give new proofs that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected at every Misiurewicz point and at every point on the boundary of a hyperbolic component. The idea is to show ``shrinking of puzzle pieces'' without using specific puzzles.…

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…

We prove that Julia components of polynomials are generally small in diameter. For polynomials without irrationally neutral cycles, Fatou components are also typically small, even when the Julia set is not locally connected.

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…

We investigate the dynamics of semigroups generated by a family of polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere such that the postcritical set in the complex plane is bounded. The Julia set of such a semigroup may not be connected in general. We…
