Topological Entropy of Quadratic Polynomials and Dimension of Sections of the Mandelbrot Set
نویسنده
چکیده
A fundamental theme in holomorphic dynamics is that the local geometry of parameter space (e.g. the Mandelbrot set) near a parameter reflects the geometry of the Julia set, hence ultimately the dynamical properties, of the corresponding dynamical system. We establish a new instance of this phenomenon in terms of entropy. Indeed, we prove an “entropy formula” relating the entropy of a polynomial restricted to its Hubbard tree to the Hausdorff dimension of the set of rays landing on the corresponding vein in the Mandelbrot set. The results contribute to the recent program of W. Thurston of understanding the geometry of the Mandelbrot set via the core entropy.

Entropy, dimension and combinatorial moduli for one-dimensional dynamical systems
The goal of this thesis is to provide a unified framework in which to analyze the dynamics of two seemingly unrelated families of one-dimensional dynamical systems, namely the family of quadratic polynomials and continued fractions. We develop a combinatorial calculus to describe the bifurcation set of both families and prove they are isomorphic. As a corollary, we establish a series of results...
متن کاملTopological, Geometric and Complex Analytic Properties of Julia Sets
In this paper, we discuss several aspects of Julia sets, as well as those of the Mandelbrot set. We are interested in topological properties such as connectivity and local connectivity, geometric properties such as Hausdorff dimension and Lebesgue measure, and complex analytic properties such as holomorphic removability. As one can easily see from the pictures of numerical experiments, there is...

Quadratic Polynomials with Julia Sets of Hausdorr Dimension Close to 2
We consider certain families of quadratic polynomials which admit pa-rameterisations in a neighbourhood of the boundary of the Mandelbrot set. We show that the associated Julia sets are of Hausdorr dimension arbitrarily close to 2. Our construction clariies related work by Shishikura. 0 Introduction During the last decade much attention has been paid to the fractal aspects of degeneration proce...
متن کاملEntropy of a semigroup of maps from a set-valued view
In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between Hausdorff metric entropy and topological entropy of a semigroup defined by Bis. Some examples with positive or zero Hausdorff metric entropy are given. Moreov...
