What is the "category of bifurcations"?
While reading the introduction to this paper by Curtis McMullen, I came to the following (bold added):
In this paper we show that every bifurcation set contains a copy of the boundary of the ...

Reference request: Complex geodesic flow
Can someone suggest a book on complex geodesic flow? I am interested in it mainly because I was told these form a very useful class of Riemann surface laminations. Of special interest to me is the ...

Showing that a certain level set of a continuous family of holomorphic maps is locally path connected
I'm working with a continuous function $P: [0,1] \times W \to \mathbb{C}^n$, where $W \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is an open, relatively compact ball centred at the origin. The map $P$ satisfies the ...

Is the closed orbit of the Van der Pol equation a stable periodic orbit?
We consider the Van der Pol vector field $$(1) \;\;\;\;\;\; \begin{cases} x'=y-(x^3-x)\\ y'=-x\end{cases}$$ on $\mathbb{R}^2.$
It is well known that this equation has a unique limit ...

Flow of zeros in the shifted exponential generating function?
Given a sequence $a_n$ (of real numbers, described more fully below), one may define the exponential generating function (on the complex plane) as $E(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n z^n/n!$. The derivatives $...

Confusion on the assumption when discussing the kneading invariants for unimodal maps
A unimodal map is a continuous map $f:[0,1]\longrightarrow [0,1]$ such that there is only one turning point (critical point), denoted by $c$, and $f(0)=f(1)=0$.
Unimodal map is related to kneading ...

Is the Mandelbrot set weakly self-similar?
A subset $F$ of an Euclidean space $E$ will be called weakly self-similar if for all $x \in F$ there is $\epsilon_x>0$ such that for all positive $\epsilon \le \epsilon_x$ there are $y \in F$, $\...

Question about a length inequality in algebraic dynamics
Let $X$ be a Noetherian scheme. Let $f\colon X\rightarrow X$ be an integral self-morphism. If $x\in X$ is a closed point, I will write $\mathcal{F}_{1}^x$ for the coherent sheaf of $\mathcal{O}_X$-...

How to compute expansion factors for hyperbolic rational maps?
It is a commonly-referenced result about certain rational maps acting on $\mathbb{\hat{C}}$ that they are expanding on a neighborhood of their Julia sets. A sufficient condition to be expanding is ...

Is there an equivalent to the logistic map for a nonlinear path through some of the other nodules of the Mandelbrot set?
The logistic map can be related to the real axis of the Mandelbrot set, looking at the different cycle lengths as you pass through all the various nodules along the real axis. But there are other ...

Does this sequence of Blaschke Product have rescaling limit $z-1$?
Background: The conformal conjugacy class of parabolic isometry of upper half plane $\mathbb{H}$ consists of $f(z) = z+1$ and $g(z)=z-1$.
Consider surjective proper holomorphic $F_n: \mathbb{H} \...
