We show that under the definition of computability which is natural from the point of view of applications, there exist non-computable quadratic Julia sets.
We completely characterize the conformal radii of Siegel disks in the family $$P_θ(z)=e^{2πiθ}z+z^2,$$ corresponding to {\bf computable} parameters $θ$. As a consequence, we constructively produce quadratic polynomials with {\bf non-computable} Julia sets.
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.
We discuss computability of impressions of prime ends of compact sets. In particular, we construct quadratic Julia sets which possess explicitly described non-computable impressions.
We prove that the Julia set of a rational function $f$ is computable in polynomial time, assuming that the postcritical set of $f$ does not contain any critical points or parabolic periodic orbits.
In this paper we settle most of the open questions on algorithmic computability of Julia sets. In particular, we present an algorithm for constructing quadratics whose Julia sets are uncomputable. We also show that a filled Julia set of a polynomial is always computable.
We prove some new continuity results for the Julia sets $J$ and $J^{+}$ of the complex Hénon map $H_{c,a}(x,y)=(x^{2}+c+ay, ax)$, where $a$ and $c$ are complex parameters. We look at the parameter space of dissipative Hénon maps which have a fixed point with one eigenvalue $(1+t)λ$, where $λ$ is a root of unity and $t$ is real and small in absolute value. These maps have a semi-parabolic fixed point when $t$ is $0$, and we use the techniques that we have developed in [RT] for the semi-parabolic case to describe nearby perturbations. We show that for small nonzero $|t|$, the Hénon map is hyperb…
Consider the parameter space $\mathcal{P}_λ\subset \mathbb{C}^{2}$ of complex Hénon maps $$ H_{c,a}(x,y)=(x^{2}+c+ay,ax),\ \ a\neq 0 $$ which have a semi-parabolic fixed point with one eigenvalue $λ=e^{2πi p/q}$. We give a characterization of those Hénon maps from the curve $\mathcal{P}_λ$ that are small perturbations of a quadratic polynomial $p$ with a parabolic fixed point of multiplier $λ$. We prove that there is an open disk of parameters in $\mathcal{P}_λ$ for which the semi-parabolic Hénon map has connected Julia set $J$ and is structurally stable on $J$ and $J^{+}$. The Julia set $J^{+…
It has been previously shown by two of the authors that some polynomial Julia sets are algorithmically impossible to draw with arbitrary magnification. On the other hand, for a large class of examples the problem of drawing a picture has polynomial complexity. In this paper we demonstrate the existence of computable quadratic Julia sets whose computational complexity is arbitrarily high.
We prove that the Julia set of a rational map of the Riemann sphere satisfying the Collet-Eckmann condition and having no parabolic periodic point is mean porous, if it is not the whole sphere. It follows that the Minkowski dimension of the Julia set is less than 2.
We give an estimate of the discontinuity of the large Julia set for a perturbation of a class of maps tangent to the identity, by means of a two-dimensional Lavaurs Theorem. We adapt to our situation a strategy due to Bedford, Smillie and Ueda in the semiattracting setting. We also prove the discontinuity of the filled Julia set for such perturbations of regular polynomials.
Let $d(c)$ denote the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set $J_c$ of the polynomial $f_c(z)=z^2+c$. We will investigate behavior of the function $d(c)$ when real parameter $c$ tends to a parabolic parameter.
It is shown that the boundary of the Mandelbrot set $M$ has Hausdorff dimension two and that for a generic $c \in \bM$, the Julia set of $z \mapsto z^2+c$ also has Hausdorff dimension two. The proof is based on the study of the bifurcation of parabolic periodic points.
We prove the existence of Cantor Julia sets with Hausdorff dimension two. In particular, such examples can be found in cubic polynomials. The proof is based on the characterization of the parameter spaces and dynamical planes of cubic polynomials by Branner-Hubbard, and the parabolic bifurcation theory developed by Shishikura in 1990s.
We show that there exist real parameters $c$ for which the Julia set $J_c$ of the quadratic map $z^2+c$ has arbitrarily high computational complexity. More precisely, we show that for any given complexity threshold $T(n)$, there exist a real parameter $c$ such that the computational complexity of computing $J_c$ with $n$ bits of precision is higher than $T(n)$. This is the first known class of real parameters with a non poly-time computable Julia set.
Using parabolic enrichment, it is shown that Gronwall area formula for the filled Julia set along the boundary of the main cardioid of the Mandelbrot set cannot be well approximated by replacing it by a finite sum. A revised version of this article will appear in the Journal of the London Mathematical Society.
For a class of polynomial maps of one variable with a parabolic fixed points and degrees bigger than $21$, the parabolic renormalization is introduced based on Fatou coordinates and horn maps, and a type of maps which are invariant under the parabolic renormalization is also given. For the small perturbation of these kinds of maps, the near-parabolic renormalization is also introduced based on the first return maps defined on the fundamental regions. As an application, we show the existence of non-renormalizable polynomial maps with degrees bigger than $21$ such that the Julia sets have positi…
It was known that the Sierpiński carpets can appear as the Julia sets in the families of some rational maps. In this article we present a criterion that guarantees the existence of the carpet Julia sets in some rational maps having exactly one fixed (super-) attracting or parabolic basin. We show that this criterion can be applied to some well known rational maps, such as McMullen maps and Morosawa-Pilgrim family. Moreover, we give also some special examples whose Julia sets are Sierpiński carpets.
Let $f$ be a rational map with degree $d\geq 2$ whose Julia set is connected but not equal to the whole Riemann sphere. It is proved that there exists a rational map $g$ such that $g$ contains a buried Julia component on which the dynamics is quasiconformally conjugate to that of $f$ on the Julia set if and only if $f$ does not have parabolic basins and Siegel disks. If such $g$ exists, then the degree can be chosen such that $\text{deg}(g)\leq 7d-2$. In particular, if $f$ is a polynomial, then $g$ can be chosen such that $\text{deg}(g)\leq 4d+4$. Moreover, some quartic and cubic rational maps…
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 that, under certain assumptions on invariant subcontinua $Q$ of $J_P$, every Riemann ray to $Q$ landing at a periodic repelling/parabolic point $x\in Q$ is isotopic to a Riemann ray to $J_P$ relative to $Q$.
We give three families of parabolic rational maps and show that every Cantor set of circles as the Julia set of a non-hyperbolic rational map must be quasisymmetrically equivalent to the Julia set of one map in these families for suitable parameters. Combining a result obtained before, we give a complete classification of the Cantor circles Julia sets in the sense of quasisymmetric equivalence. Moreover, we study the regularity of the components of the Cantor circles Julia sets and establish a sufficient and necessary condition when a component of a Cantor circles Julia set is a quasicircle.
We prove that the meandering set for $f_a(z)=e^z+a$ is homeomorphic to the space of irrational numbers whenever $a$ belongs to the Fatou set of $f_a$. This extends recent results by Vasiliki Evdoridou and Lasse Rempe. It implies that the radial Julia set of $f_a$ has topological dimension zero for all attracting and parabolic parameters, including all $a\in (-\infty,-1]$. Similar results are obtained for Fatou's function $f(z)=z+1+e^{-z}$.
We consider the structure of substantially dissipative complex Hénon maps admitting a dominated splitting on the Julia set. The dominated splitting assumption corresponds to the one-dimensional assumption that there are no critical points on the Julia set. Indeed, we prove the corresponding description of the Fatou set, namely that it consists of only finitely many components, each either attracting or parabolic periodic. In particular there are no rotation domains, and no wandering components. Moreover, we show that $J = J^\star$ and the dynamics on $J$ is hyperbolic away from parabolic cycle…
Let $f:\bar\bold C\to\bar\bold C$ be a rational map on the Riemann sphere , such that for every $f$-critical point $c\in J$ which forward trajectory does not contain any other critical point, $|(f^n)'(f(c))|$ grows exponentially fast (Collet--Eckmann condition), there are no parabolic periodic points, and else such that Julia set is not the whole sphere. Then smooth (Riemann) measure of the Julia set is 0. For $f$ satisfying additionally Masato Tsujii's condition that the average distance of $f^n(c)$ from the set of critical points is not too small, we prove that Hausdorff dimension of Julia s…
Let $d(\varepsilon)$ and $\mathcal D(δ)$ denote the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia sets of the polynomials $p_\varepsilon(z)=z^2+1/4+\varepsilon$ and $f_δ(z)=(1+δ)z+z^2$ respectively. In this paper we will study the directional derivative of the functions $d(\varepsilon)$ and $\mathcal D(δ)$ along directions landing at the parameter $0$, which corresponds to $1/4$ in the case of family $z^2+c$. We will consider all directions, except the one $\varepsilon\in\mathbb{R}^+$ (or two imaginary directions in the $δ$ parametrization) which is outside the Mandelbrot set and is related to the paraboli…
This article focus on the connected locus of the cubic polynomial slice $Per_1(λ)$ with a parabolic fixed point of multiplier $λ=e^{2πi\frac{p}{q}}$. We first show that any parabolic component, which is a parallel notion of hyperbolic component, is a Jordan domain. Moreover, a continuum $\mathcal{K}_λ$ called the central part in the connected locus is defined. This is the natural analogue to the closure of the main hyperbolic component of $Per_1(0)$. We prove that $\mathcal{K}_λ$ is almost a double covering of the filled-in Julia set of the quadratic polynomial $P_λ(z) = λz+z^2$.
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 kleinen and such that the intersection of all impressions of external angles is a continuum containing $p$ and the orbits of all critical images. The \emph{solar} $J_P$ are such that every angle with dense orbit has a degenerate impression disjoint from other impressions and $J_P$ is connected im kleinen at its landing point. We study bi-accessible points and loca…
The boundaries of the hyperbolic components of odd period of the multicorns contain real-analytic arcs consisting of quasi-conformally conjugate parabolic parameters. One of the main results of this paper asserts that the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia sets is a real-analytic function of the parameter along these parabolic arcs. This is achieved by constructing a complex one-dimensional quasiconformal deformation space of the parabolic arcs which are contained in the dynamically defined algebraic curves $\mathrm{Per}_n(1)$ of a suitably complexified family of polynomials. As another applicat…
Brolin-Lyubich measure $λ_R$ of a rational endomorphism $R:\riem\to\riem$ with $°R\geq 2$ is the unique invariant measure of maximal entropy $h_{λ_R}=h_{\text{top}}(R)=\log d$. Its support is the Julia set $J(R)$. We demonstrate that $λ_R$ is always computable by an algorithm which has access to coefficients of $R$, even when $J(R)$ is not computable. In the case when $R$ is a polynomial, Brolin-Lyubich measure coincides with the harmonic measure of the basin of infinity. We find a sufficient condition for computability of the harmonic measure of a domain, which holds for the basin of infinity…
Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to an attracting fixed point then there exists a polynomial in the component $H(f)$ of $H^d$ containing $f$. If all critical points are in the immediate basin of attraction to an attracting fixed point or parabolic fixed point then $f$ restricted to Julia set is conjugate to the shift on the one-sided shift space of $d$ symbols. We give exotic examples of maps …
An omitted value of a transcendental meromorphic function $f$ is called a Baker omitted value, in short \textit{bov} if there is a disk $D$ centered at the bov such that each component of the boundary of $f^{-1}(D)$ is bounded. Assuming that the bov is in the Fatou set of $f$, this article investigates the dynamics of the function. Firstly, the connectivity of all the Fatou components are determined. If $U$ is the Fatou component containing the bov then it is proved that a Fatou component $U'$ is infinitely connected if and only if it lands on $U$, i.e. $f^{k}(U') \subset U$ for some $k \geq 1…
Consider the standard family of complex Hénon maps $H(x,y) = (p(x) - ay, x)$, where $p$ is a quadratic polynomial and $a$ is a complex parameter. Let $U^{+}$ be the set of points that escape to infinity under forward iterations. The analytic structure of the escaping set $U^{+}$ is well understood from previous work of J. Hubbard and R. Oberste-Vorth as a quotient of $(\mathbb{C}-\overline{\mathbb{D}}) \times\mathbb{C}$ by a discrete group of automorphisms $Γ$ isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}[1/2]/\mathbb{Z}$. On the other hand, the boundary $J^{+}$ of $U^{+}$ is a complicated fractal object on which…
