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…
We study the convergence of graphs consisting of finitely many internal rays for degenerating Newton maps. We state a sufficient condition to guarantee the convergence. As an application, we investigate the boundedness of hyperbolic…
The dynamics of all quadratic Newton maps of rational functions are completely described. The Julia set of such a map is found to be either a Jordan curve or totally disconnected. It is proved that no Newton map with degree at least three…
The dynamical classification of rational maps is a central concern of holomorphic dynamics. Much progress has been made, especially on the classification of polynomials and some approachable one-parameter families of rational maps; the goal…
Self-maps everywhere defined on the projective space $\P^N$ over a number field or a function field are the basic objects of study in the arithmetic of dynamical systems. One reason is a theorem of Fakkruddin \cite{Fakhruddin} (with…
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…
Dynamics on parabolic immediate basins for rational Newton maps of entire functions have been studied. It is proved that every parabolic immediate basin contains invariant accesses to the parabolic fixed point at infinity. Moreover, among…
The Newton map N_f of an entire function f turns the roots of f into attracting fixed points. Let U be the immediate attracting basin for such a fixed point of N_f. We study the behavior of N_f in a component V of C\U. If V can be…
We give a combinatorial classification for the class of postcritically fixed Newton maps of polynomials as dynamical systems. This lays the foundation for classification results of more general classes of Newton maps. A fundamental…
The $p$-adic Newton polygon is a visual tool that encodes information about the roots and factorization of a polynomial relative to a prime $p$. In this article, we investigate how the Newton polygon changes under polynomial composition. If…
In this paper we study the dynamics of damped Traub's methods $T_\delta$ when applied to polynomials. The family of damped Traub's methods consists of root finding algorithms which contain both Newton's ($\delta=0$) and Traub's method…
In this paper, we revisit the chaotic number of iterations needed by Newton's method to converge to a root. Here, we consider a simple modified Newton method depending on a parameter. It is demonstrated using polynomiography that even in…
We investigate the plane dynamical system given by the secant map applied to a polynomial $p$ having at least one multiple root of multiplicity $d>1$. We prove that the local dynamics around the fixed points associated to the roots of $p$…
The dynamical degree of a dominant rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^N\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ is the quantity $\delta(f):=\lim(\text{deg} f^n)^{1/n}$. We study the variation of dynamical degrees in 1-parameter families of maps $f_T$. We make a…
We study numerically the $\alpha$- and $\omega$-limits of the Newton maps of two of the most elementary families of polynomial transformations on the plane: those with a linear component and those with both components of degree two. Our…
Suppose $f$ and $g$ are two post-critically finite polynomials of degree $d_1$ and $d_2$ respectively and suppose both of them have a finite super-attracting fixed point of degree $d_0$. We prove that one can always construct a rational map…
The basin of infinity of a polynomial map $f : {\bf C} \arrow {\bf C}$ carries a natural foliation and a flat metric with singularities, making it into a metrized Riemann surface $X(f)$. As $f$ diverges in the moduli space of polynomials,…
We consider the family of cubic polynomials with a simple parabolic fixed point. We prove that the boundary of the immediate basin of attraction of the parabolic point is a Jordan curve and give a description of the dynamics.
The purpose of this paper is to study some properties of the Newton maps associated to real quintic polynomials. First using the Tschirnhaus transformation, we reduce the study of Newton's method for general quintic polynomials to the case…
Any Jordan curve in the complex plane can be approximated arbitrarily well in the Hausdorff topology by Julia sets of polynomials. Finite collections of disjoint Jordan domains can be approximated by the basins of attraction of rational…
