Escaping endpoints explode (Q523618): Difference between revisions

The authors study escaping endpoints for complex exponential maps \(f_a: z\mapsto e^z+a\), \(a\in \mathbb{C}\), and also for certain subclasses of entire functions. For a large class of parameter values, they show that, under natural hypotheses, the point at infinity is an explosion point for the set of escaping endpoints for \(f_a\). This answers a question by D. Schleicher; earlier results in this direction have previously been obtained by \textit{J. C. Mayer} [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 10, No. 1, 177--183 (1989; Zbl 0668.58032)]. The paper also contains many other results, including connectivity statements for finite-order entire functions and no-wandering-triangles type theorems for exponential maps.
