Cantor bouquets, explosions, and Knaster continua: dynamic of complex exponentials.
We describe some of the interesting dynamical and topological properties of the complex exponential family λez and its associated Julia sets.

In parameter slices of quadratic rational functions, we identify arcs represented by matings of quadratic polynomials. These arcs are on the boundaries of hyperbolic components.
We consider two characteristic exponents of a rational function f:ℂ̂ → ℂ̂ of degree d ≥ 2. The exponent is the average of log∥f’∥ with respect to the measure of maximal entropy. The exponent can be defined as the maximal characteristic exponent over all periodic orbits of f. We prove that if and only if f(z) is conformally conjugate to .
We define the concept of symplectic foliation on a symplectic manifold and provide a method of constructing many examples, by using asymptotically holomorphic techniques.
We study the combinatorics of distance doubling maps on the circle ℝ/ℤ with prototypes h(β) = 2β mod 1 and h̅(β) = -2β mod 1, representing the orientation preserving and orientation reversing case, respectively. In particular, we identify parts of the circle where the iterates of a distance doubling map f exhibit “distance doubling behavior”. The results include well known statements for h related to the structure of the Mandelbrot set M. For h̅ they suggest some analogies to the structure of...
Let K be a compact connected subset of cc, not reduced to a point, and F a univalent map in a neighborhood of K such that F(K) = K. This work presents a study and a classification of the dynamics of F in a neighborhood of K. When ℂ K has one or two connected components, it is proved that there is a natural rotation number associated with the dynamics. If this rotation number is irrational, the situation is close to that of “degenerate Siegel disks” or “degenerate Herman rings” studied by R. Pérez-Marco...
We show that on a dense open set of analytic one-frequency complex valued cocycles in arbitrary dimension Oseledets filtration is either dominated or trivial. The underlying mechanism is different from that of the Bochi-Viana Theorem for continuous cocycles, which links non-domination with discontinuity of the Lyapunov exponent. Indeed, in our setting the Lyapunov exponents are shown to depend continuously on the cocycle, even if the initial irrational frequency is allowed to vary. On the other...
Traitant la série de Poincaré d’un groupe discret d’isométries en courbure négative comme un noyau de Green, on établit une théorie du potentiel assez comparable à la théorie classique pour affirmer un parallèle entre densités conformes à la Patterson-Sullivan et densités harmoniques, et notamment définir une frontière de Martin où les densités ergodiques forment la partie minimale, et enfin l’identifier géométriquement sous hypothèse d’hyperbolicité.
Following results of McMullen concerning rational maps, we show that the limit set of matings between a certain class of representations of C₂ ∗ C₃ and quadratic polynomials carries δ-conformal measures, and that if the correspondence is geometrically finite then the real number δ is equal to the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set. Moreover, when f is the limit of a pinching deformation we give sufficient conditions for the dynamical convergence of .
