We answer a question of Schleicher by showing that, for an exponential map with nonescaping singular value, every periodic ray lands. This is an analog of a theorem of Douady and Hubbard concerning polynomials. We also prove a partial…
We show that repelling periodic points are landing points of periodic rays for exponential maps whose singular value has bounded orbit. For polynomials with connected Julia sets, this is a celebrated theorem by Douady, for which we present…
A key point in Douady and Hubbard's study of the Mandelbrot set $M$ is the theorem that every parabolic point $c\ne 1/4$ in $M$ is the landing point for exactly two external rays with angle which are periodic under doubling. This note will…
In this article, we present a landing theorem for periodic dynamic rays for transcendental entire maps which have bounded post-singular sets, by using standard hyperbolic geometry results.
Filaments are a natural generalization of the well-known concept of dynamic rays in complex dynamics. In this article we investigate which periodic or preperiodic filaments land together for arbitrary post-singularly finite transcendental…
We give a new proof that all external rays of the Mandelbrot set at rational angles land, and of the relation between the external angle of such a ray and the dynamics at the landing point. Our proof is different from the original one,…
A transcendental entire function f is called geometrically finite if the intersection of the set of singular values with the Fatou set is compact and the intersection of the postsingular set with the Julia set is finite. (In particular,…
We study the distribution of periodic points for a wide class of maps, namely entire transcendental functions of finite order and with bounded set of singular values, or compositions thereof. Fix $p\in\N$ and assume that all dynamic rays…
Let $P: {\mathbb C} \to {\mathbb C}$ be a polynomial map with disconnected filled Julia set $K_P$ and let $z_0$ be a repelling or parabolic periodic point of $P$. We show that if the connected component of $K_P$ containing $z_0$ is…
Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to…
We consider the dynamics arising from the iteration of an arbitrary sequence of polynomials with uniformly bounded degrees and coefficients and show that, as parameters vary within a single hyperbolic component in parameter space, certain…
We study the discrete dynamics of standard (or left) polynomials $f(x)$ over division rings $D$. We define their fixed points to be the points $\lambda \in D$ for which $f^{\circ n}(\lambda)=\lambda$ for any $n \in \mathbb{N}$, where…
In recent years, there has been significant progress in the understanding of the dynamics of transcendental entire functions with bounded postsingular set. In particular, for certain classes of such functions, a complete description of…
We give a criterion to determine when two external rays land at the same point for polynomials with locally connected Julia sets. As an application, we provide an elementary proof of the monotonicity of the core entropy along arbitrary…
In this paper, we use the Carath\'eodory Convergence Theory to prove a landing theorem of rays in hyperbolic components with rational arguments. Although the proof is done in the setting of a family of entire transcendental maps with two…
In this article, we prove that for several one-dimensional holomorphic families of holomorphic maps, in the parameter plane, there exists a local piece of a curve that lands at a given parabolic parameter, in the spirit of well-known…
We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…
We prove a structure theorem for the multibrot sets, which are the higher degree analogues of the Mandelbrot set, and give a complete picture of the landing behavior of the rational parameter rays and the bifurcation phenomenon. Our proof…
We study the bifurcation loci of quadratic (and unicritical) polynomials and exponential maps. We outline a proof that the exponential bifurcation locus is connected; this is an analog to Douady and Hubbard's celebrated theorem that (the…
The so-called Fundamental Theorem of Dynamical Systems -- which(1) relates attractors and repellers to the chain recurrent set and (2) gives the existence of a complete Lyapunov function -- can be seen as a means of separating out…
