We explore the connected/disconnected dichotomy for the Julia set of polynomial automorphisms of C^2. We develop several aspects of the question, which was first studied by Bedford-Smillie. We introduce a new sufficient condition for the…

Let $f(z) = z^2 + c$ be a quadratic polynomial, with c in the Mandelbrot set. Assume further that both fixed points of f are repelling, and that f is not renormalizable. Then we prove that the Julia set J of f is holomorphically removable…

One of the main questions in the field of complex dynamics is the question whether the Mandelbrot set is locally connected, and related to this, for which maps the Julia set is locally connected. In this paper we shall prove the following…

We prove that for a polynomial diffeomorphism of C^2, uniform hyperbolicity on the set of saddle periodic points implies that saddle points are dense in the Julia set. In particular f satisfies Smale's Axiom A on C^2 .

Let $(f_\lambda)_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$ be a holomorphic family of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^2$. Following previous work of Dujardin and Lyubich, we say that such a family is weakly stable if saddle periodic orbits do not…

For a hyperbolic polynomial automorphism of C^2 with a disconnected Julia set, and under a mild dissipativity condition, we give a topological description of the components of the Julia set. Namely, there are finitely many "quasi-solenoids"…

For any polynomial diffeomorphism $f$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ with positive entropy, neither the Julia set of $f$ nor of its inverse $f^{-1}$ is $C^1$ smooth as a manifold-with-boundary.

In this work we consider a class of endomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^2$ defined by $f(x,y)=(xy+c,x)$, where $c\in\mathbb{R}$ is a real number and we prove that when $-1<c<0$, the forward filled Julia set of $f$ is the union of stable manifolds…

Let $P$ be a polynomial of degree $d$ with a Cremer point $p$ and no repelling or parabolic periodic bi-accessible points. We show that there are two types of such Julia sets $J_P$. The \emph{red dwarf} $J_P$ are nowhere connected im…

For any polynomial diffeomorphism $f$ of ${\Bbb C}^2$ with positive entropy, neither the Julia set of $f$ nor of its inverse $f^{-1}$ is semi-analytic.

We prove that the Julia set $J(f)$ of at most finitely renormalizable unicritical polynomial $f:z\mapsto z^d+c$ with all periodic points repelling is locally connected. (For $d=2$ it was proved by Yoccoz around 1990.) It follows from a…

Let $f$ be a post-critically finite endomorphism (PCF map for short) on $\mathbb{P}^2$, let $J_1$ denote the Julia set and let $J_2$ denote the support of the measure of maximal entropy. In this paper we show that: 1. $J_1\setminus J_2$ is…

We prove that for a polynomial diffeomorphism of C^2 , the support of any invariant measure, apart from a few obvious cases, is contained in the closure of the set of saddle periodic points.

Using computer graphics and visualization algorithms, we extend in this work the results obtained analytically in [1], on the connectivity domains of alternated Julia sets, defined by switching the dynamics of two quadratic Julia sets. As…

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…

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 prove that several dynamically defined fractals in $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{C}^2$ which arise from different type of polynomial dynamical systems can not be the same objects. One of our main results is that the closure of Misiurewicz…

We prove fixed point results for branched covering maps $f$ of the plane. For complex polynomials $P$ with Julia set $J_P$ these imply that periodic cutpoints of some invariant subcontinua of $J_P$ are also cutpoints of $J_P$. We deduce…

In this article we analyze the global diffeomorphism property of polynomial maps $F:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^n$ by studying the properties of the Newton polytopes at infinity corresponding to the sum of squares polynomials…

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…
