Abstract: We investigate the random dynamics of polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere and the dynamics of semigroups of polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere. In particular, the dynamics of a semigroup $G$ of polynomials whose planar postcritical set is bounded and the associated random dynamics are studied. In general, the Julia set of such a $G$ may be disconnected. We show that if $G$ is such a semigroup, then regarding the associated random dynamics, the chaos of the averaged system disappears in the $C^0$ sense, and the function $T_{infty}$ of probability of tending to $infty$ is H"{o}lder continuous on the Riemann sphere and varies only on the Julia set of $G$. Moreover, the function $T_{infty}$ has a kind of monotonicity. It turns out that $T_{infty}$ is a complex analogue of the devil's staircase, and we call $T_{infty}$ a "devil's coliseum." We investigate the details of $T_{infty}$ when $G$ is generated by two polynomials. In this case, $T_{infty}$ varies precisely on the Julia set of $G$, which is a thin fractal set. Moreover, under this condition, we investigate the pointwise H"{o}lder exponents of $T_{infty}$ by using some geometric observations, ergodic theory, potential theory and function theory. In particular, we show that for almost every point $z$ in the Julia set of $G$ with respect to an invariant measure, $T_{infty}$ is not differentiable at $z.$ We find many new phenomena of random complex dynamics which cannot hold in the usual iteration dynamics of a single polynomial, and we systematically investigate them.
