Review text

Any polynomial of degree \(d\) is conjugated by an affine map to a monic and centered map in the following form:\N\[\Nf(z)=z^d+a_{d-2}z^{d-2}+\cdots+a_1z+a_0\N\]\Nwith \((a_0,a_1,\cdots,a_{d-1})\in \mathbb{C}^{d-1}\). Let \(\mathcal{P}_d\) denote the space of all monic and centered polynomials of degree \(d\).\N\NA polynomial \(f\in \mathcal{P}_d\) is called hyperbolic if all of its critical points tend to attracting cycles under iterations. The set of hyperbolic maps forms an open subset of \(\mathcal{P}_d\); its connected components are called hyperbolic components.\N\NThe main result of the paper is the following: Given any positive integers \(p\ge 2\) and \(d\ge 3\), there exists a polynomial \(f_0 \in \mathcal{P}_d\) such that \(f_0\) is the common boundary point of exactly \(p\) hyperbolic components.\N\NThis result is obtained via a long and complex construction of the required polynomial \(f_0\).
