Nov 19, 2013 at 19:22 comment added Lasse Rempe If by "holomorphic function" you mean "entire function", then the answer is yes (but this is really a different question). It may not be quite as trivial for transcendental maps as for polynomials, but is still true.
Nov 19, 2013 at 11:16 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @LasseRempe-Gillen : ok, thank you! Is it true that the non-escaping set of every holomorphic function, has trivial fundamental group (by using your trivial standard results) ?
Nov 18, 2013 at 19:45 comment added Lasse Rempe Yes, they always have trivial fundamental group. This is trivial using standard results. After giving some thought to the matter, I believe, however, that Cremer quadratic Julia sets are quite unlikely to be path-connected.
Nov 18, 2013 at 18:20 comment added Sebastien Palcoux My definition of $1$-connected is : with a trivial fundamental group and $0$-connected (i.e. path-connected). Because you don't know whether Cremer Julia sets can be $0$-connected, I guess you don't have the same definition. Anyway, you say that these sets have a trivial fundamental group.
Nov 18, 2013 at 17:37 comment added Lasse Rempe @Sebastien A Cremer Julia set has no interior and can never disconnect the plane, so - if I have my definitions right - every such Julia set is 1-connected.
Nov 18, 2013 at 11:17 comment added Sebastien Palcoux @LasseRempe-Gillen : I thought you prove that it's not $1$-connected (because $1$-connected is weaker than contractible). But, in fact, you prove directly that it's not contractible. Thank you ! If $0$-connected Cremer filled Julia sets exist, do you know if they could be not $1$-connected ?

Nov 18, 2013 at 5:48 comment added Lasse Rempe @Alex - I will clarify. Sebastien - I don't understand. I believe contractibility is a stronger property than being 1-connected. In any case, I am not sure that it is known whether Cremer Julia sets can be pathwise connected.
Nov 17, 2013 at 21:35 comment added Alexandre Eremenko In the entire transcendental case, are you sure that the non-escaping set is connected? (I did not understand your "hence", because the non-escaping set contains much more than the Fatou component).
Nov 17, 2013 at 21:10 comment added Sebastien Palcoux Thank you for this outline ! I'm not sure to well understand about the quadratic Cremer polynomials: do they disprove the weaker property "$0$-connected $\Rightarrow$ $1$-connected"? (If no, is this property still open in the entire case?)
