Abstract

top
We show that, for the family of functions F λ ( z ) = z + λ / z where n ≥ 3 and λ ∈ ℂ, there is a unique McMullen domain in parameter space. A McMullen domain is a region where the Julia set of F λ is homeomorphic to a Cantor set of circles. We also prove that this McMullen domain is a simply connected region in the plane that is bounded by a simple closed curve.
