Let $P$ be a polynomial with a connected Julia set $J$. We use continuum theory to show that it admits a \emph{finest monotone map $\ph$ onto a locally connected continuum $J_{\sim_P}$}, i.e. a monotone map $\ph:J\to J_{\sim_P}$ such that…
We extend fundamental results concerning Apollonian packings, which constitute a major object of study in number theory, to certain homogeneous sets that arise naturally in complex dynamics and geometric group theory. In particular, we give…
Consider the parameter space $\mathcal{P}_{\lambda}\subset \mathbb{C}^{2}$ of complex H\'enon maps $$ H_{c,a}(x,y)=(x^{2}+c+ay,ax),\ \ a\neq 0 $$ which have a semi-parabolic fixed point with one eigenvalue $\lambda=e^{2\pi i p/q}$. We give…
In this paper, we study a particular conservative standard map in complex dimension 2. In this example, Siegel disks can be visualized and analyzed numerically as to the smoothness of their boundaries. We formulate and numerically support…
In the famous work by Buff and Ch\'eritat constructing quadratic Julia sets with positive area, the control of the shape of perturbed Siegel disks is a key technique. To do it, Buff and Ch\'eritat added a restrictive condition on rotation…
We prove some new continuity results for the Julia sets $J$ and $J^{+}$ of the complex H\'enon map $H_{c,a}(x,y)=(x^{2}+c+ay, ax)$, where $a$ and $c$ are complex parameters. We look at the parameter space of dissipative H\'enon maps which…
We prove: If $f(z)$ is a critically finite rational map which has exactly two critical points and which is not conjugate to a polynomial, then the boundary of every Fatou component of $f$ is a Jordan curve. If $f(z)$ is a hyperbolic…
We show that $J-$ stability is open and dense in natural families of meromorphic maps of one complex variable with a finite number of singular values, and even more generally, to finite type maps. This extends the results of…
This paper deals with both complex dynamical systems and conformal iterated function systems. We study finitely generated expanding semigroups of rational maps with overlaps on the Riemann sphere. We show that if a $d$-parameter family of…
We present a fixed point theorem on topological cylinders in normed linear spaces for maps satisfying a property of stretching a space along paths. This result is a generalization of a similar theorem obtained by D. Papini and F. Zanolin.…
In the quadratic family (the set of polynomials of degree 2), Petersen and Zakeri proved the existence of Siegel disks whose boundaries are Jordan curves, but not quasicircles. In their examples, the critical point is contained in the…
For the family of complex rational functions known as "Generalized McMullen maps", F(z) = z^n + a/z^n+b, for complex parameters a and b, with a nonzero, and any integer n at least 3 fixed, we reveal, and provide a combinatorial model for,…
We show that any $d\geq3$ pairwise-disjoint open sets $A_1$, ..., $A_d\subset\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ sharing a common boundary $J$ can be simultaneously approximated by the $d$ attracting basins $\mathcal{A}_1$, ..., $\mathcal{A}_d$ of a…
A rational lemniscate is a level set of $|r|$ where $r: \hat{\mathbb{C}} \rightarrow \hat{\mathbb{C}}$ is rational. We prove that any planar Euler graph can be approximated, in a strong sense, by a homeomorphic rational lemniscate. This…
Some models of set theory are given which contain sets that have some of the important characteristics of being geometric, or spatial, yet do not have any points, in various ways. What's geometrical is that there are functions to these…
We extend uniform pseudo-Siegel bounds for neutral quadratic polynomials to $\psi^\bullet$-quadratic-like Siegel maps. In this form, the bounds are compatible with the $\psi$-quadratic-like renormalization theory and are easily transferable…
We realize a dynamical decomposition for a post-critically finite rational map which admits a combinatorial decomposition. We split the Riemann sphere into two completely invariant subsets. One is a subset of the Julia set consisting of…
In this paper we give a unified proof of the fact that the Julia set of Newton's method applied to a holomorphic function of the complex plane (a polynomial of degree large than $1$ or an entire transcendental function) is connected. The…
We study the dynamics of a collection of families of transcendental entire functions which generalises the well-known exponential and cosine families. We show that for functions in many of these families the Julia set, the escaping set and…
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…
