AbstractLet T be a rational function of degree ≥ 2 on the Riemann sphere. Our results are based on the lemma that the diameter of a connected component of T−n(B(x, r)), centered at any point x in its Julia set J = J(T), does not exceed Lnrp for some constants L ≥ 1 and ρ > 0. Denote the transfer operator of a Hölder-continuous function φ on J satisfying P(T,φ) > supz∈Jφ(z). We study the behavior of {: n ≥ 1} for Hölder-continuous functions ψ and show that the sequence is (uniformly) normbounded in the space of Hölder-continuous functions for sufficiently small exponent. As a consequence we obtain that the density of the equilibrium measure μ for φ with respect to the -conformal measure is Höolder-continuous. We also prove that the rate of convergence of {ψ to this density in sup-norm is . From this we deduce the corresponding decay of the correlation integral and the central limit theorem for ψ.

We consider dynamics of sub-hyperbolic and semi-hyperbolic semigroups of rational functions on the Riemann sphere and will show some no wandering domain theorems. The Julia set of a rational semigroup in general may have non-empty interior points. We give a sufficient condition that the Julia set has no interior points. From some information about forward and backward dynamics of the semigroup, we consider when the area of the Julia set is equal to zero or an upper estimate of the Hausdorff dimension of the 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.

Let ƒ b e a mapping defined on a compact subset K of the finite complex plane C and taking its values on the extended plane C ⋃ ﹛ ∞﹜. For x a metric on the extended plane, we consider the possibility of approximating ƒ x-uniformly on K by rational functions. Since all metrics on C ⋃ ﹛oo ﹜ are equivalent, we shall consider that x is the chordal metric on the Riemann sphere of diameter one resting on a finite plane at the origin.

Dynamical Properties

We study a family of rational maps of the Riemann sphere with the property that each map has two fixed points with multiplier -1; moreover, each map has no period 2 orbits. The family we analyze is Ra(z) = (z3 - z)/(-z2 + az + 1), where a varies over all nonzero complex numbers. We discuss many dynamical properties of Ra including bifurcations of critical orbit behavior as a varies, connectivity of the Julia set J(Ra), and we give estimates on the Hausdorff dimension of J(Ra).

Indecomposable Continuum

AbstractMakienko’s conjecture, a proposed addition to Sullivan’s dictionary, can be stated as follows: the Julia set of a rational function R:ℂ∞→ℂ∞ has buried points if and only if no component of the Fatou set is completely invariant under the second iterate of R. We prove Makienko’s conjecture for rational functions with Julia sets that are decomposable continua. This is a very broad collection of Julia sets; it is not known if there exists a rational function whose Julia set is an indecomposable continuum.

AbstractWe study the dynamics of semigroups of Möbius transformations on the Riemann sphere, especially their Julia sets and attractors. This theory relates to the dynamics of rational functions, rational semigroups, and Möbius groups and we compare and contrast these theories. We particularly examine Caruso’s family of Möbius semigroups, based on a random dynamics variant of the Fibonacci sequence.

AbstractIn this paper we shall give examples of rational maps on the Riemann sphere and also of polynomial interval maps which are transitive but not ergodic with respect to Lebesgue measure. In fact, these maps have two disjoint compact attractors whose attractive basins are ‘intermingled’, each having a positive Lebesgue measure in every open set. In addition, we show that there exists a real bimodal polynomial with Fibonacci dynamics (of the type considered by Branner and Hubbard), whose Julia set is totally disconnected and has positive Lebesgue measure. Finally, we show that there exists a rational map associated to the Newton iteration scheme corresponding to a polynomial whose Julia set has positive Lebesgue measure.

Conformal Measure

A rational map $T$ of degree not less than two is known to preserve a measure, called the conformal measure, equivalent to the Hausdorff measure of the same dimension as its Julia set $J$ and supported there, with respect to which it is ergodic and even exact. As a consequence of Birkhoff's pointwise ergodic theorem almost every $z$ in $J$ with respect to the conformal measure has an orbit that is asymptotically distributed on $J$ with respect to this measure. As a counterpoint to this, the following result is established in this paper. Let $\Omega(z)=\Omega_{T}(z)$ denote the closure of the set $\{T^{n}(z):n=1,2,\ldots\}$. For any expanding rational map $T$ of degree at least two we set \[ S(z_{0})=\{z\in J:z_{0}\not\in \Omega_{T}(z)\}. \] We show that for all $z_{0}$ the Hausdorff dimensions of $S(z)$ and $J$ are equal.
