Let $f$ be a polynomial-like mapping of the sphere of degree $d \geq 2$. We show that the Julia set $J(f)$ of $f$ cannot be the union of a finite number of proper indecomposable subcontinua. As a corollary, we prove that $J(f)$ is an…
For many transcendental entire functions, the escaping set has the structure of a Cantor bouquet, consisting of uncountably many disjoint curves. Rippon and Stallard showed that there are many functions for which the escaping set has a new…
Let $f$ and $g$ be permutable transcendental entire functions. We use a recent analysis of the dynamical behaviour in multiply connected wandering domains to make progress on the long standing conjecture that the Julia sets of $f$ and $g$…
We examine topological spaces not distinguishing ideal pointwise and ideal $\sigma$-uniform convergence of sequences of real-valued continuous functions defined on them. For instance, we introduce a purely combinatorial cardinal…
Indecomposable continua with one composant are $\textit{large}$ in the sense of being non-metrisable. We adapt the method of Smith $[18]$ to construct an example which is $\textit{small}$ in the sense of being separable.
The \emph{index set} of a computable structure $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of indices for computable copies of $\mathcal{A}$. We determine the complexity of the index sets of various mathematically interesting structures, including arbitrary…
We study invariant measures for random countable (finite or infinite) conformal iterated function systems (IFS) with arbitrary overlaps. We do not assume any type of separation condition. We prove, under a mild assumption of finite entropy,…
On any closed Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than $7$, we construct examples of background physical coefficients for which the Einstein-Lichnerowicz equation possesses a non-compact set of positive solutions. This yields in…
We show that for a transcendental entire function the set of points whose orbit under iteration is bounded can have arbitrarily small positive Hausdorff dimension.
Many authors have studied sets, associated with the dynamics of a transcendental entire function, which have the topological property of being a spider's web. In this paper we adapt the definition of a spider's web to the punctured plane.…
Beginning with Devaney, several authors have studied transcendental entire functions for which every point in the escaping set can be connected to infinity by a curve in the escaping set. Such curves are often called Devaney hairs. We show…
The orbit of a point $x\in X$ in a classical iterated function system (IFS) can be defined as $\{f_u(x)=f_{u_n}\circ\cdots \circ f_{u_1}(x):$ $u=u_1\cdots u_n$ is a word of a full shift $\Sigma$ on finite symbols and $f_{u_i}$ is a…
We give extensive characterizations for an open subset of an affine space of arbitrary dimension, resp. of an inverse limit of prime spectra to be quasi-compact. Among other things weak stability, retro-compactness, and cylinder sets…
This paper studies a general class of Iterated Function Systems (IFS). No contractivity assumptions are made, other than the existence of some compact attractor. The possibility of escape to infinity is considered. Our present approach is…
Given a compact interval $I \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, and a function $f$ that is a product of a nonzero polynomial with a Gaussian, it will be shown that the translates $\{ f(\cdot - \lambda) : \lambda \in \Lambda \}$ are complete in $C(I)$ if…
We prove that every Lindel\"of scattered subspace of a $\Sigma$-product of first-countable spaces is $\sigma$-compact. In particular, we obtain the result stated in the title. This answers some questions of Tkachuk from [Houston J. Math. 48…
The set splittability problem is the following: given a finite collection of finite sets, does there exits a single set that contains exactly half the elements from each set in the collection? (If a set has odd size, we allow the floor or…
Let $f$ and $g$ be two quasiregular maps in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that are of transcendental type and also satisfy $f\circ g =g \circ f$. We show that if the fast escaping sets of those functions are contained in their respective Julia sets then…
While every group is isomorphic to a transitive group of permutations, the analogous property fails for inverse semigroups: not all inverse semigroups are isomorphic to transitive inverse semigroups of one-to-one partial transformations of…
Transcendental functions, such as exponentials and logarithms, appear in a broad array of computational domains: from simulations in curvilinear coordinates, to interpolation, to machine learning. Unfortunately they are typically expensive…
