Review text

The article is concerned with the first four iterates of the logistic map \(f_r:[0,1]\to[0,1]\), where \(f_r(x)=rx(1-x)\) and \(r\in [0,4]\). For each \(n\in\{1,2,3,4\}\), the parameter values \(r\) for which the line \(y=x\) is tangent to the \(n\)th iterate \(f_r^{(n)}\) (or put differently, the parameter values at which a period-\(n\) cycle is created in a tangent bifurcation) are calculated. The method used has already been employed by \textit{P.~Saha} and \textit{S. H.~Strogatz} [Math.~Mag. 68, 42--47 (1995; Zbl 0856.58012)] to treat the case \(n=3\).
