A hyperbolic transcendental entire function with connected Fatou set is said to be "of disjoint type". It is known that a disjoint-type function provides a model for the dynamics near infinity of all maps in the same parameter space; hence…
Holomorphic renormalization plays an important role in complex polynomial dynamics. We consider certain conditions guaranteeing that a polynomial which does not admit a polynomial-like connected Julia set still admits an invariant continuum…
In this article, we introduce the adapted inverse iteration method to generate bicomplex Julia sets associated to the polynomial map $w^2+c$. The result is based on a full characterization of bicomplex Julia sets as the boundary of a…
In this work, we study the non-autonomous dynamics generated by random iterations of the cubic family of the form $z^3 + cz$. The parameter sequence is chosen randomly from a bounded Borel subset of $\mathbb{C}$. We investigate topological…
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…
In this paper, we study conjugacy invariants for 2-dimensional diffeomorphisms with homoclinic cubic tangencies (two-sided tangencies of the lowest order) under certain open conditions. Ordinary arguments used in past studies of conjugacy…
According to the Thurston No Wandering Triangle Theorem, a branching point in a locally connected quadratic Julia set is either preperiodic or precritical. Blokh and Oversteegen proved that this theorem does not hold for higher degree Julia…
For a rational function $R$, let $N_R(z)=z-\frac{R(z)}{R'(z)}.$ Any such $N_R$ is referred to as a Newton map. We determine all the rational functions $R$ for which $N_R$ has exactly two attracting fixed points, one of which is an…
Chebyshev maps in the complex plane are typical chaotic maps. Veselov generalized these map. We consider a class of those maps and view them as holomorphic endomorphisms on the 3-dimensional complex projective space and make use of the…
We provide a David extension result for circle homeomorphisms conjugating two dynamical systems such that parabolic periodic points go to parabolic periodic points, but hyperbolic points can go to parabolics as well. We use this result, in…
The no invariant line fields conjecture is one of the main outstanding problems in traditional complex dynamics. In this paper we consider non-autonomous iteration where one works with compositions of sequences of polynomials with suitable…
We give new proofs that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected at every Misiurewicz point and at every point on the boundary of a hyperbolic component. The idea is to show ``shrinking of puzzle pieces'' without using specific puzzles.…
In earlier papers, we showed a decomposition of 2-diregular digraphs (2-dds) and used it to provide some sufficient conditions for these graphs to be non-Hamiltonian; we also showed a close connection between the permanent and determinant…
We solve the longstanding conjecture by Milnor (1993) concerning the connectedness locus $M_1$ of the family of quadratic rational maps tangent to the identity at $\infty$. We prove that this locus in homeomorphic to the Mandelbrot set $M$…
In this paper we study the dynamics of regular polynomial automorphisms of C^n. These maps provide a natural generalization of complex Henon maps in C^2 to higher dimensions. For a given regular polynomial automorphism f we construct a…
Let $f:\widehat{\mathbb{C}}\rightarrow \widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ be a hyperbolic rational map of degree $d \geq 2$, and let $J \subset \mathbb{C}$ be its Julia set. We prove that $J$ always has positive Fourier dimension. The case where $J$ is…
We establish connectedness criteria for graphs associated to monomials in certain quotients of the mod 2 dual Steenrod algebra. We also investigate questions about trees and Hamilton cycles in the context of these graphs. Finally, we…
Consider a polynomial $f$ of degree $d \geq 2$ that has a Siegel disk $\Delta_f$ with a rotation number of bounded type. We prove that there does not exist a hedgehog containing $\Delta_f$. Moreover, if the Julia set $J_f$ of $f$ is…
We study the parameter space structure of degree $d \ge 3$ one complex variable polynomials as dynamical systems acting on $\C$. We introduce and study {\it straightening maps}. These maps are a natural higher degree generalization of the…
We prove that a long iteration of rational maps is expanding near boundaries of bounded type Siegel disks. This leads us to extend Petersen's local connectivity result on the Julia sets of quadratic Siegel polynomials to a general case. A…
