Analytic classification of germs of parabolic antiholomorphic diffeomorphisms of codimension k

We investigate the local dynamics of antiholomorphic diffeomorphisms around a parabolic fixed point. We first give a normal form. Then we give a complete classification including a modulus space for antiholomorphic germs with a parabolic fixed point under analytic conjugacy. We then study some geometric applications: existence of real analytic invariant curves, existence of holomorphic and antiholomorphic roots of holomorphic and antiholomorphic parabolic germs, and commuting holomorphic and antiholomorphic parabolic germs.

Parabolic-like mappings

In this paper we introduce the notion of parabolic-like mapping. Such an object is similar to a polynomial-like mapping, but it has a parabolic external class, i.e. an external map with a parabolic fixed point. We define the notion of parabolic-like mapping and we study the dynamical properties of parabolic-like mappings. We prove a straightening theorem for parabolic-like mappings which states that any parabolic-like mapping of degree two is hybrid conjugate to a member of the family $$\begin{eqnarray}\mathit{Per}_{1}(1)=\left\{[P_{A}]\,\bigg|\,P_{A}(z)=z+\frac{1}{z}+A,~A\in \mathbb{C}\right\}\!,\end{eqnarray}$$ a unique such member if the filled Julia set is connected.

Analytic moduli for unfoldings of germs of generic analytic diffeomorphisms with a codimension parabolic point

In this paper we provide a complete modulus of analytic classification for germs of generic analytic families of diffeomorphisms which unfold a parabolic fixed point of codimension$k$. We start by showing that a generic family can be ‘prepared’, i.e. brought to a prenormal form${f}_{\epsilon } (z)$in which the multi-parameter$\epsilon $is almost canonical (up to an action of$ \mathbb{Z} / k \mathbb{Z} $). As in the codimension one case treated in P. Mardešić, R. Roussarie and C. Rousseau [Modulus of analytic classification for unfoldings of generic parabolic diffeomorphisms.Mosc. Math. J. 4(2004), 455–498], we show that the Ecalle–Voronin modulus can be unfolded to give a complete modulus for such germs. For this purpose, we define unfolded sectors in$z$-space that constitute natural domains on which the map${f}_{\epsilon } $can be brought to normal form in an almost unique way. The comparison of these normalizing changes of coordinates on the different sectors forms the analytic part of the modulus. This construction is performed on sectors in the multi-parameter space$\epsilon $such that the closure of their union provides a neighborhood of the origin in parameter space.

Cubic polynomials with a parabolic point

We consider cubic polynomials with a simple parabolic fixed point of multiplier 1. For those maps, we prove that the boundary of the immediate basin of attraction of the parabolic point is a Jordan curve (except for the polynomial z+z3 where it consists in two Jordan curves). Moreover, we give a description of the dynamics and obtain the local connectivity of the Julia set under some assumptions.

Linearization of holomorphic germs with quasi-parabolic fixed points

Let f be a germ of a holomorphic diffeomorphism of $\mathbb {C}^n$ with the origin O being a quasi-parabolic fixed point, i.e. the spectrum of dfO consists of 1 and e2iπθj with $\theta _j\in \mathbb {R}\!\setminus \!\mathbb {Q}$. We show that f is locally holomorphically conjugated to its linear part, if f is of some particular form and its eigenvalues satisfy certain arithmetic conditions. When the spectrum of dfO does not consist of any 1’s, this is the classical result of Siegel [C. L. Siegel. Iteration of analytic functions. Ann. of Math.43 (1942), 607–612] and Brjuno [A. D. Brjuno. Analytic form of differential equations. Trans. Moscow Math. Soc.25 (1971), 131–288; 26 (1972), 199–239].

FINITENESS OF THE AREA OF BASINS OF ATTRACTION OF RELAXED NEWTON METHOD FOR CERTAIN HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONS

For a nonconstant function F and a real number h∈]0, 1] the relaxed Newton's method NF,h of F is an iterative algorithm for finding the zeroes of F. We show that when relaxed Newton's method is applied to complex function F(z)=P(z)eQ(z), where P and Q are polynomials, the basin of attraction of a root of F has finite area if the degree of Q exceeds or equals 3. The key point is that NF,h is a rational map with a parabolic fixed point at infinity.
