The escaping set I(f) of a transcendental meromorphic function f consists of all points which tend to infinity under iteration. The Eremenko-Lyubich class B consists of all transcendental meromorphic functions for which the set of finite…
We study the iteration of transcendental self-maps of $\mathbb{C}^*:=\mathbb{C}\setminus \{0\}$, that is, holomorphic functions $f:\mathbb{C}^*\to\mathbb{C}^*$ for which both zero and infinity are essential singularities. We use…
We consider the dynamics of transcendental self-maps of the punctured plane, $\mathbb{C}^*=\mathbb{C}\setminus \{0\}$. We prove that the escaping set $I(f)$ is either connected, or has infinitely many components. We also show that $I(f)\cup…
We prove that every transcendental meromorphic map f with a disconnected Julia set has a weakly repelling fixed point. This implies that the Julia set of Newton's method for finding zeroes of an entire map is connected. Moreover, extending…
We provide the full theory of thermodynamic formalism for a very general collection of entire functions in class $\mathcal B$. This class overlaps with the collection of all entire functions for which thermodynamic formalism has been so far…
We give a complete classification of the set of parameters $\kappa$ for which the singular value of $E_{\kappa}:z\mapsto \exp(z)+\kappa$ escapes to infinity under iteration. In particular, we show that every path-connected component of this…
Since 1984, many authors have studied the dynamics of maps of the form $\mathcal{E}_a(z) = e^z - a$, with $a > 1$. It is now well-known that the Julia set of such a map has an intricate topological structure known as a Cantor bouquet, and…
We study homeomorphisms of a Cantor set with $k$ ($k < +\infty$) minimal invariant closed (but not open) subsets; we also study crossed product C*-algebras associated to these Cantor systems and their certain orbit-cut sub-C*-algebras. In…
We show that there exists a hyperbolic entire function of finite order of growth such that the hyperbolic dimension---that is, the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points in the Julia set of whose orbit is bounded---is equal to two. This…
The Borel map takes a smooth function to its infinite jet of derivatives (at zero). We study the restriction of this map to ultradifferentiable classes of Beurling type in a very general setting which encompasses the classical…
Let $C(\mathbf I)$ be the set of all continuous self-maps from ${\mathbf I}=[0,1]$ with the topology of uniformly convergence. A map $f\in C({\mathbf I})$ is called a transitive map if for every pair of non-empty open sets $U,V$ in…
A generalized family of transcendental (non-polynomial entire) functions is constructed, where the Hausdorff dimension and the packing dimension of the Julia sets are equal to one. Further, there exist multiply connected wandering domains,…
Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function and let $A(f)$ denote the set of points that escape to infinity `as fast as possible' under iteration. By writing $A(f)$ as a countable union of closed sets, called `levels' of $A(f)$, we obtain a…
A Path-Complete Lyapunov Function is an algebraic criterion composed of a finite number of functions, called its pieces, and a directed, labeled graph defining Lyapunov inequalities between these pieces. It provides a stability certificate…
An important question is to describe topological conjugacy classes of dynamical systems. Here we show that within the space of real analytic one-dimensional maps with critical points of prescribed order, the conjugacy class of a map is a…
The Fatou-Julia theory for rational functions has been extended both to transcendental meromorphic functions and more recently to several different types of quasiregular mappings in higher dimensions. We extend the iterative theory to…
The Eremenko-Lyubich class consists of transcendental entire functions with bounded singular set and the Speiser class is made up of functions with a finite singular set. In an earlier paper "Models for the Eremenko-Lyubich class" I gave a…
In this paper, we give a family of rational maps whose Julia sets are Cantor circles and show that every rational map whose Julia set is a Cantor set of circles must be topologically conjugate to one map in this family on their…
The study of the dynamics of polynomials is now a major field of research, with many important and elegant results. The study of entire functions that are not polynomials -- in other words transcendental entire functions -- is somewhat less…
We classify transcendental entire functions that are compositions of a polynomial and the exponential for which all singular values escape on disjoint rays. The construction involves an iteration procedure on an infinite-dimensional…
