In this paper we continue the study, began in \cite{CJK2}, of the bifurcation locus of a family of meromorphic functions with two asymptotic values, no critical values and an attracting fixed point. If we fix the multiplier of the fixed…

Let K be a number field, let f: P_1 --> P_1 be a nonconstant rational map of degree greater than 1, let S be a finite set of places of K, and suppose that u, w in P_1(K) are not preperiodic under f. We prove that the set of (m,n) in N^2…

The so-called "pinched disk" model of the Mandelbrot set is due to A.~Douady, J.~H.~Hubbard and W.~P.~Thurston. It can be described in the language of geodesic laminations. The combinatorial model is the quotient space of the unit disk…

We study two-dimensional, two-piece, piecewise-linear maps having two saddle fixed points. Such maps reduce to a four-parameter family and are well known to have a chaotic attractor throughout open regions of parameter space. The purpose of…

We prove the decoration theorem for the Mandelbrot set (and Multibrot sets) which says that when a "little Mandelbrot set" is removed from the Mandelbrot set, then most of the resulting connected components have small diameters.

We prove that Misiurewicz parameters with prescribed combinatorics and hyperbolic parameters with (d - 1) distinct attracting cycles with given multipliers are equidistributed with respect to the bifurcation measure in the moduli space of…

The Mandelbrot set is an extremely well-known mathematical object that can be described in a quite simple way but has very interesting and non-trivial properties. This paper surveys some results that are known concerning the…

Motivated by problems arising in the relative trace formula and arithmetic invariant theory we prove the existence of rational points on orbits arising from certain infinitesimal symmetric spaces. As an application, we prove analogous…

In this paper we study multi-parameter projection theorems for fractal sets. With the help of these estimates, we recover results about the size of $A \cdot A+...+A \cdot A$, where $A$ is a subset of the real line of a given Hausdorff…

The numerical phenomenon of $\pi$ appearing at parameters $c = 1/4$, $c=-3/4$ and $c=-5/4$ in the Mandelbrot set $\mathcal{M}$ has been known for over 30 years. In 2001, the first proof was provided by Aaron Klebanoff for the parameter…

The goal of this paper is to investigate the parameter plane of a rational family of perturbations of the doubling map given by the Blaschke products $B_a(z)=z^3\frac{z-a}{1-\bar{a}z}$. First we study the basic properties of these maps such…

This paper deals with periodic solutions of the Hamilton equation with many parameters. Theorems on global bifurcation of solutions with periods $2\pi/j,$ $j\in\mathbb{N},$ from a stationary point are proved. The Hessian matrix of the…

We present a rectilinearization theorem for p-adic semi-algebraic sets depending on parameters. As an application of our main theorem we present an alternative proof of a rationality result for parametric p-adic inte- grals, due to Denef.

The behavior under iteration of the critical points of polynomial maps plays an essential role in understanding its dynamics. We study the special case where the forward orbits of the critical points are finite. Thurston's theorem tells us…

We present a proof of the conjecture by Bonifant and Milnor (see arXiv:2503.08868) regarding the similarity between the connectedness locus of the curve $\mathcal{S}_p$ at Misiurewicz parameters and their corresponding filled Julia sets in…

For the family of complex rational functions of the form $R_{n,c,a}(z) = z^n + \dfrac{a}{z^n}+c$, known as ``Generalized McMullen maps'', for $a\neq 0$ and $n \geq 3$ fixed, we study the boundedness locus in some one-dimensional slices of…

Many questions about triangles and quadrilaterals with rational sides, diagonals and areas can be reduced to solving certain Diophantine equations. We look at a number of such questions including the question of approximating arbitrary…

We study the parameter space ${\mathcal S}_p$ for cubic polynomial maps with a marked critical point of period $p$. We will outline a fairly complete theory as to how the dynamics of the map $F$ changes as we move around the parameter space…

We investigate with the help of Clifford algebraic methods the Mandelbrot set over arbitrary two-component number systems. The complex numbers are regarded as operator spinors in D\times spin(2) resp. spin(2). The thereby induced (pseudo)…

The theory of backward bifurcations provides a criterion for the existence of positive steady states in epidemiological models with parameters where the basic reproductive ratio is less than one. It is often seen in simulations that this…
