Slow escaping points of meromorphic functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We show that for any transcendental meromorphic function f there is a point z in the Julia set of f such that the iterates fn(z) escape, that is, tend to infty, arbitrarily slowly. The proof uses new covering results for analytic functions. We also introduce several slow escaping sets, in each of which fn(z) tends to infty at a bounded rate, and establish the connections between these sets and the Julia set of f. To do this, we show that the iterates of f satisfy a strong distortion estimate in all types of escaping Fatou components except one, which we call a plane-filling wandering domain. We give examples to show how varied the structures of these slow escaping sets can be.
