Abstract: A holomorphic endomorphism f of CP^2 admits a Julia set J_1, defined as usual to be the locus of non-normality of its iterates, and a (typically) smaller Julia set J_2, which is essentially the closure of the set of repelling periodic orbits. The question has been raised whether J_1J_2 is filled (possibly in a measure-theoretic sense) with "Fatou subvarieties" along which the dynamics is locally equicontinuous. In this article we construct examples showing that this is not the case in general


The author answers some questions which were raised by many other authors. Let \(f\) be a holomorphic endomorphism of \(\mathbb{CP}^{2}\), of degree \(d\geq 2\). The Julia set \(J_{1}\) is the locus of non-normality of its iterates \((f^{n})_{n\geq 0}\), and the (typically) smaller Julia set \(J_{2}\) is essentially the closure of the set of repelling periodic orbits. In the paper under review, the question is raised whether the Green current \(T\) is laminar in \(J_{1}\backslash J_{2}\). It is found that this is not the case in general. The author constructs explicit examples of endomorphisms of \(\mathbb{P}^{2}\) (actually polynomial on \(\mathbb{C}^{2}\)) such that the Green current is not laminar outside \(J_{2}\), even in a very weak sense. The author shows that the negative answer to the laminarity problem works in higher dimension as well. Given a holomorphic endomorphism of \(\mathbb{P}^{k}\) of degree \(d\) with Green current \(T\), the author defines its \(q\)th Julia set by \(J_{q} = \mathrm{Supp} (T_{q} )\). Then it may be asked whether for \(1\leq q \leq k-1\), \(J_{q}\backslash J_{q+1}\) can be filled with Fatou disks of codimension \(q\). It is shown that \(T^{q}_{F}\) is not laminated by Fatou disks of codimension \(q\).
