A dynamical algorithm to compute hyperbolic Julia sets in polynomial time

Hyperbolic Julia sets of complex polynomials are known to be computable in polynomial time due to pioneering work of Braverman in 2005 (10.1016/j.entcs.2004.06.031). In this paper, we present an alternative method for establishing poly-time computability of hyperbolic Julia sets, which allows us to establish, via a new algorithm, lower computability of the hyperbolicity locus of polynomials of a fixed degree. We first adapt our recently developed algorithms for the computability of polynomial skew products (preprint available arXiv.2508.08033) and then apply a refinement that allows us to establish poly-time computation of hyperbolic Julia sets. Finally, we derive lower computability of the hyperbolicity locus via an adapted lattice/refinement search algorithm. In contrast to Braverman's 2005 algorithm/proof, our approach is dynamical in nature and does not rely on techniques unique to complex analysis.
