A direct proof of the density of repulsive cycles in Julia sets

From MaRDI portal





The density of repelling periodic cycles in the Julia set of a rational or entire function is important in complex dynamics. The reviewer's proof of this in the transcendental entire case [Math. Z. 104, 252--256 (1968; Zbl 0172.09502)] used the three islands theorem of Ahlfors. Recent attempts to give a simpler proof use a renormalisation criterion of L. Zalcman for non-normal families and some more elementary results of value distribution. The authors give an elegant version depending on the above criterion and Picard's theorem. A related simple argument has been published by \textit{D. Bargmann} [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 19, No. 3, 553--558 (1999; Zbl 0942.37033)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0940.00031].
