Multipliers of periodic orbits of quadratic polynomials and the parameter plane (Q839920): Difference between revisions

Let us denote \(f_c(z)=z^2 + c\) and \(M\) denotes the Mandelbrot set. Let \(\mathcal{O}=\{b_k\}_{k=1}^n\) be a periodic orbit of \(f=f_{c_0}\) of exact period \(n\). Its multiplier is the number \(\varrho=(f^n)'(b_k)\). If \(\varrho\neq 1,\) by the Implicit function theorem, there exist \(n\) holomorphic functions \(b_k(c),\,k=1,\ldots ,n\) defined in a neighborhood of \(c_0,\) such that \(\mathcal{O}(c)= \{b_k(c)\}_{k=1}^n\) is a periodic orbit of \(f_c,\) and \(\mathcal{O}(c_0)=\mathcal{O}.\) In particular, if \(\varrho(c) = (f^n_c)'(b_k (c))=2^n b_1(c)\cdots b_n (c)\) denotes the multiplier of \(\mathcal{O}(c),\) it is holomorphic in \(c\) in this neighborhood. A result about an extension of the multiplier \(\varrho(c)\) as a function of the parameter \(c\) is proved in this paper.
