Why "no wandering domain" fails in parabolic basin?
Theorem (Sullivan). Every Fatou component $U$ of $f$ rational map is eventually periodic, that is, there exist $n > m > 0$ such that $f^n(U) = f^m(U)$
I am familiar with the proof: spread around ...

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} \...

Accessible points of a simply connected domain
We know that if $U$ is an open subset of $\mathbb{\widehat C}$ (extended complex plane), a point $v\in\partial U$ is called accessible from $U$ if there exists a curve $\gamma:[0,1)\to U$ such that $\...

Borel summation and the Abel function of $e^z-1$
This is a question that has bothered myself and Gottfried Helms a fair amount of late. He has made his case for the following result, but a proof escapes both of us. The question is deceptively simple,...

Finding the repelling fixed point of an exponential, knowing only its attracting one
This question has been bugging me for a while, I have an answer that is working sufficiently for the program I'm using, but it is a tad slow, and let's say imprecise. It is not an overtly difficult ...

Lower semicontinuity of the number of attracting periodic points of a holomorphic family of rational maps?
Recently I have been reading the book Mathematical Tools for One-Dimensional Dynamics.
In the proof of the theorem 5.4.2, authors use the following fact that the number of attracting periodic points ...

Exponential iterates of a complex number
Let $f:\mathbb C\to \mathbb C$ be defined by $f(z)=e^z-1$. Let $f^n$ denote the $n$-fold composition of $f$.
In my new paper Erdős space in Julia sets I show that $$Z:=\{z\in \mathbb C:\lvert\...

Computing the maximum modulus
For each $a\in \mathbb C$ define $f_a:\mathbb C\to \mathbb C$ by $f_a(z)=\exp(z)+a$. I am primarily interested in real values $a\in (-\infty,-1)$.
