Invariant escaping Fatou components with two rank-one limit functions for automorphisms of

We construct automorphisms of ${\mathbb C}^2$ , and more precisely transcendental Hénon maps, with an invariant escaping Fatou component which has exactly two distinct limit functions, both of (generic) rank one. We also prove a general growth lemma for the norm of points in orbits belonging to invariant escaping Fatou components for automorphisms of the form $F(z,w)=(g(z,w),z)$ with $g(z,w):{\mathbb C}^2\rightarrow {\mathbb C}$ holomorphic.

Classifying simply connected wandering domains

While the dynamics of transcendental entire functions in periodic Fatou components and in multiply connected wandering domains are well understood, the dynamics in simply connected wandering domains have so far eluded classification. We give a detailed classification of the dynamics in such wandering domains in terms of the hyperbolic distances between iterates and also in terms of the behaviour of orbits in relation to the boundaries of the wandering domains. In establishing these classifications, we obtain new results of wider interest concerning non-autonomous forward dynamical systems of holomorphic self maps of the unit disk. We also develop a new general technique for constructing examples of bounded, simply connected wandering domains with prescribed internal dynamics, and a criterion to ensure that the resulting boundaries are Jordan curves. Using this technique, based on approximation theory, we show that all of the nine possible types of simply connected wandering domain resulting from our classifications are indeed realizable.

Orbifold expansion and entire functions with bounded Fatou components

Many authors have studied the dynamics of hyperbolic transcendental entire functions; these are functions for which the postsingular set is a compact subset of the Fatou set. Equivalently, they are characterized as being expanding. Mihaljević-Brandt studied a more general class of maps for which finitely many of their postsingular points can be in their Julia set, and showed that these maps are also expanding with respect to a certain orbifold metric. In this paper we generalize these ideas further, and consider a class of maps for which the postsingular set is not even bounded. We are able to prove that these maps are also expanding with respect to a suitable orbifold metric, and use this expansion to draw conclusions on the topology and dynamics of the maps. In particular, we generalize existing results for hyperbolic functions, giving criteria for the boundedness of Fatou components and local connectivity of Julia sets. As part of this study, we develop some novel results on hyperbolic orbifold metrics. These are of independent interest, and may have future applications in holomorphic dynamics.

Existence of wandering and periodic domain in given angular region

Dynamics of composition of entire functions is well related to it's factors, as it is known that for entire functions f and g, fog has wandering domain if and only if gof has wandering domain. However the Fatou components may have different structures and properties. In this paper we have shown the existence of domains with all possibilities of wandering and periodic in given angular region θ.

Transcendental Semigroup that has Simply Connected Fatou Components

We prove that there exists non-trivial transcendental semigroup S such that the periodic or pre-periodic or wandering components of Fatou set F(S) have simply connected domain D.

Escaping Fatou components of transcendental self-maps of the punctured plane

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 approximation theory to construct functions in this class with escaping Fatou components, both wandering domains and Baker domains, that accumulate to $\{0,\infty\}$ in any possible way under iteration. We also give the first explicit examples of transcendental self-maps of $\,\mathbb{C}^*$ with Baker domains and with wandering domains. In doing so, we developed a sufficient condition for a function to have a simply connected escaping wandering domain. Finally, we remark that our results also provide new examples of entire functions with escaping Fatou components.

Polynomial shift-like maps in ℂk

The purpose of this paper is to explore a few properties of polynomial shift-like automorphisms of [Formula: see text] We first prove that a [Formula: see text]-shift-like polynomial map (say [Formula: see text]) degenerates essentially to a polynomial map in [Formula: see text]-dimensions as [Formula: see text] Second, we show that a shift-like map obtained by perturbing a hyperbolic polynomial (i.e. [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is sufficiently small) has finitely many Fatou components, consisting of basins of attraction of periodic points and the component at infinity.
