Geometric pressure in real and complex 1-dimensional dynamics via trees of pre-images and via spanning sets (Q1692332): Difference between revisions

For generalized real unimodal maps \(f\) and for complex rational maps \(f\) of degree at least \(2\) of the Riemann sphere and their restrictions to their Julia sets, the topological pressure is compared to other notions of pressure. They are shown to be equal in the real case, under mild additional conditions. In the complex case, if there is at most one critical point with forward trajectory accumulating in the Julia set, they are equal as well. It is also shown that the topological pressure is finite in the complex case, but it may be infinite in the real case.
