Introduction to the theory of iteration of rational, entire and meromorphic complex functions. Basic notions and methods of holomorphic dynamical systems. |
Full description: |
The course will present basic notions and methods of the theory of iteration of holomorphic functions (polynomials, rational, entire and meromorphic functions) on the complex plane. This theory, started in the 1920-1930 by P. Fatou and G. Julia, has been developing intesively since 1980, in relation with the progress of computer techniques which enable to visualize complicated fractal objects. The plan of the course is as follows. 1. Introduction - examples of the dynamics of holomorphic functions. 2. Local behaviour of a holomorphic function near a fixed point - attracting, repelling, rational and irrational neutral points. 3. Julia sets of holomorphic maps - basic properties. 4. Structure of the Fatou set. Basins of attracting and parabolic orbits, Siegel discs, Herman rings, wandering domains. Classification Theorem. Sullivan's Theorem. 5. Critical points and the dynamics of a map, hyperbolic Julia sets. 6. Quadratic family - the Mandelbrot set, bifurcations. 7. Newton's method of finding zeroes of holomorphic functions. 8. Complex exponential family. Topological and geometric properties of the Julia sets. Dimension paradox. 9. Other questions according to students' interests. |
