AbstractLet F(z) be a rational map with degree at least three. Suppose that there exists an annulus $H \subset \widehat {\mathbb {C}}$ such that (1) H separates two critical points of F, and (2) F:H→F(H) is a homeomorphism. Our goal in this paper is to show how to construct a rational map G by twisting F on H such that G has the same degree as F and, moreover, G has a Herman ring with any given Diophantine type rotation number.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we prove that every quasiconformal deformation of a subhyperbolic rational map on the boundary of a hyperbolic component <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ \mathcal{H} $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> still lies on <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ \partial \mathcal{H} $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>. As an application, we construct geometrically finite rational maps with buried critical points on the boundaries of some hyperbolic components.</p>

AbstractWe prove: If f(z) is a critically finite rational map which has exactly two critical points and which is not conjugate to a polynomial, then the boundary of every Fatou component of f is a Jordan curve. If f(z) is a hyperbolic critically finite rational map all of whose postcritical points are periodic, then there exists a cycle of Fatou components whose boundaries are Jordan curves. We give examples of critically finite hyperbolic rational maps f with a Fatou component ω satisfying f(ω) = ω and f|∂ω not topologically conjugate to the dynamics of any polynomial on its Julia set.

AbstractLet h be the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set of a rational map with no nonperiodic recurrent critical points. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for h-dimensional Hausdorff measure and h-dimensional packing measure of the Julia set to be positive and finite. We also show that either the Julia set is the whole Riemann sphere or h < 2 and that if a rational map (not necessarily with no nonperiodic recurrent critical points!) has a rationally indifferent periodic point, then h > 1/2.

AbstractWe investigate rational maps with period-one and period-two cluster cycles. Given the definition of a cluster, we show that, in the case where the degree is$d$and the cluster is fixed, the Thurston class of a rational map is fixed by the combinatorial rotation number$\rho $and the critical displacement$\delta $of the cluster cycle. The same result will also be proved in the case where the rational map is quadratic and has a period-two cluster cycle, and we will also show that the statement is no longer true in the higher-degree case.

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.
