    The authors give explicit formulas for the stability domain of multiple iteration cycles of functions in the quaternions. The functions have the form \(F(Q) +C\) or \(CF(Q)\), where \(F(Q)\) is an 'entire' function of the form \[ F(Q) = \sum_{j=0}^{\infty} a_{j}Q^{j} \] with real coefficients. The paper is difficult to read as definitions are not given or, worse, are contradictory (e.g. (3) and (4) on page 108). Moreover the representation of the quaternions used is not familiar, it is not clear whether the quaternions are real or complex.
