We study the iteration of transcendental self-maps of $\mathbb{C}^*:=\mathbb{C}\setminus \{0\}$, that is, holomorphic functions $f:\mathbb{C}^*\to\mathbb{C}^*$ for which both zero and infinity are essential singularities. We use…

Much recent work on the iterates of a transcendental entire function $f$ has been motivated by Eremenko's conjecture that all the components of the escaping set $I(f)$ are unbounded. Here we show that if $I(f)$ is disconnected, then the set…

Suppose that $f$ is a transcendental entire function. In 2014, Rippon and Stallard showed that the union of the escaping set with infinity is always connected. In this paper we consider the related question of whether the union with…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function and let $I(f)$ denote the set of points that escape to infinity under iteration. We give conditions which ensure that, for certain functions, $I(f)$ is connected. In particular, we show that…

We investigate the connectedness properties of the set $ I^{\!+\!}(f) $ of points where the iterates of an entire function $ f $ are unbounded. In particular, we show that $ I^{\!+\!}(f) $ is connected whenever iterates of the minimum…

We investigate some connectedness properties of the set of points K(f) where the iterates of an entire function f are bounded. In particular, we describe a class of transcendental entire functions for which an analogue of the…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function and $U$ be a Fatou component of $f$. We show that if $U$ is an escaping wandering domain of $f$, then most boundary points of $U$ (in the sense of harmonic measure) are also escaping. In the other…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function and let $A(f)$ denote the set of points that escape to infinity `as fast as possible' under iteration. By writing $A(f)$ as a countable union of closed sets, called `levels' of $A(f)$, we obtain a…

We show that for many complex parameters a, the set of points that converge to infinity under iteration of the exponential map f(z)=e^z+a is connected. This includes all parameters for which the singular value escapes to infinity under…

We describe conditions under which a multiply connected wandering domain of a transcendental meromorphic function with a finite number of poles must be a Baker wandering domain, and we discuss the possible eventual connectivity of Fatou…

We study the escaping set of functions in the class $\mathcal B^*$, that is, holomorphic functions $f:\mathbb C^*\to\mathbb C^*$ for which both zero and infinity are essential singularities, and the set of singular values of $f$ is…

Many authors have studied sets, associated with the dynamics of a transcendental entire function, which have the topological property of being a spider's web. In this paper we adapt the definition of a spider's web to the punctured plane.…

In this paper, we show that there exist transcendental meromorphic functions with a cycle of 2-periodic Fatou components, where one is simply connected while the other is doubly connected. In particular, the doubly connected Fatou component…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function, and let $U,V\subset\mathbb{C}$ be disjoint simply-connected domains. Must one of $f^{-1}(U)$ and $f^{-1}(V)$ be disconnected? In 1970, Baker implicitly gave a positive answer to this question, in…

We construct several new classes of transcendental entire functions, f, such that both the escaping set, I(f), and the fast escaping set, A(f), have a structure known as a spider's web. We show that some of these classes have a degree of…

We study the different rates of escape of points under iteration by holomorphic self-maps of $\mathbb C^*=\mathbb C\setminus\{ 0\}$ for which both 0 and $\infty$ are essential singularities. Using annular covering lemmas we construct…

We show that the points that converge to infinity under iteration of the exponential map form a connected subset of the complex plane.

We construct a transcendental entire $f:\mathbb{C}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ such that (1) $f$ has bounded singular set, (2) $f$ has a wandering domain, and (3) each singular value of $f$ escapes to infinity under iteration by $f$.

For a transcendental entire function f, we study the set of points BU(f) whose iterates under f neither escape to infinity nor are bounded. We give new results on the connectedness properties of this set and show that, if U is a Fatou…

Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function and let $U$ be a univalent Baker domain of $f$. We prove a new result about the boundary behaviour of conformal maps and use this to show that the non-escaping boundary points of $U$ form a set of…
