We study the possible Hausdorff limits of the Julia sets and filled Julia sets of subsequences of the sequence of dual Chebyshev polynomials of a non-polar compact set K in C and compare such limits to K. Moreover, we prove that the…

In this paper we shall show that there exists L_0 such that for each even integer L >= L_0 there exists $c_1 \in \rz$ for which the Julia set of $z --> z^L + c_1$ has positive Lebesgue measure. This solves an old problem. Editor's note: In…

Let $g$ be a polynomial automorphism of $\C^2$. We study the Hausdorff dimension and topological dimension of the Julia set of $g$. We show that when $g$ is a hyperbolic mapping, then the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set is strictly…

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.…

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.

Based on the weak expansion property of a long iteration of a family of quasi-Blaschke products near the unit circle established recently, we prove that the Julia sets of a number of transcendental entire functions with bounded type Siegel…

We extend Sullivan's complex a priori bounds to real quadratic polynomials with essentially bounded combinatorics. Combined with the previous results of the first author, this yields complex bounds for all real quadratics. Local…

We study the bifurcation loci of quadratic (and unicritical) polynomials and exponential maps. We outline a proof that the exponential bifurcation locus is connected; this is an analog to Douady and Hubbard's celebrated theorem that (the…

We show that every polynomial of degree $d \geq 2$ in the connectedness locus with an attracting cycle which attracts at least two critical points and no indifferent cycles is not combinatorially rigid. In particular, we prove that a…

We develop a theory of quasisymmetries for finitely ramified fractals, with applications to finitely ramified Julia sets. We prove that certain finitely ramified fractals admit a naturally defined class of "undistorted metrics" that are all…

We completely characterize the conformal radii of Siegel disks in the family $$P_\theta(z)=e^{2\pi i\theta}z+z^2,$$ corresponding to {\bf computable} parameters $\theta$. As a consequence, we constructively produce quadratic polynomials…

Let $f_0$ be a polynomial of degree $d_1+d_2$ with a periodic critical point $0$ of multiplicity $d_1-1$ and a Julia critical point of multiplicity $d_2$. We show that if $f_0$ is primitive, free of neutral periodic points and…

We present the first example of a poly-time computable Julia set with a recurrent critical point: we prove that the Julia set of the Feigenbaum map is computable in polynomial time.

The renormalization of a quadratic-like map is studied. The three-dimensional Yoccoz puzzle for an infinitely renormalizable quadratic-like map is discussed. For an unbranched quadratic-like map having the {\sl a priori} complex bounds, the…

We prove an extension results for the multiplier of an attracting periodic orbit of a quadratic map as a function of the parameter. This has applications to the problem of geometry of the Mandelbrot and Julia sets. In particular, we prove…

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…

We give a combinatorial definition of "core entropy" for quadratic polynomials as the growth exponent of the number of certain precritical points in the Julia set (those that separate the $\alpha$ fixed point from its negative). This notion…

Let $p$ be a normalized (monic and centered) quartic polynomial with non-trivial symmetry groups. It is already known that if $p$ is unicritical, with only two distinct roots with the same multiplicity or having a root at the origin then…

For maps of one complex variable, $f$, given as the sum of a degree $n$ power map and a degree $d$ polynomial, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions that the geometric limit as $n$ approaches infinity of the set of points that…

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…
