Singular perturbations of Blaschke products and connectivity of Fatou components

Figure 1.  Figure (a) corresponds to the dynamical plane of $ Q_{λ, 3, 2}(z) = z^3+λ/z^2 $ for $ λ = 10^{-4} $ . Figure (b) corresponds to the dynamical plane of $ p_{2, -1}(z) = z^2-1 $ , known as the Basilica. The map $ p_{2, -1} $ has a period 2 superattracting cycle at $ \{0, -1\} $ . Figure (c) corresponds to the dynamical plane of $ f(z) = z^2-1+λ/(z^7(z+1) ^5) $ for $ λ = 10^{-22} $ . This map is a singular perturbation of the polynomial $ p_{2, -1} $ which adds a pole at each point of the superattracting cycle. Figure (d) is a magnification of (c) around the point $ z = 0 $ . The colours are as follows. We use a scaling from yellow to red to plot the basin of attraction of $ z = \infty $ . In Figure (b) we plot the basin of attraction of the cycle $ \{0, -1\} $ in black. In the other figures we may observe an approximation of the Julia set in yellow

Figure 2.  Figures (a) and (b) represent the dynamical plane of the map $ B_{a, λ} $ where $ a = 0.5 $ and $ λ = 3.022× 10^{-5} $ . Figures (c) and (d) represent the dynamical plane of the map $ B_{a, λ} $ where $ a = 0.5 $ and $ λ = 2.8×10^{-5}+8.4× 10^{-7}i $ . These maps correspond to singularly perturbed Blaschke products for which statements a) and b) of Theorem A hold. The colours are as follows. We use a scaling from yellow to red to plot the basin of attraction of $ z = \infty $ . An approximation of the Julia set may be observed in yellow

Figure 3.  The left figure corresponds to the dynamical plane of the map $ B_{a, λ} $ where $ a = 0.5 $ and $ λ = 10^{-5} $ . The right figure is a magnification of the left one. Statement c) of Theorem A holds for this map. Colours are as in Figure 2

Figure 4.  The left figure corresponds to the parameter space of the family $ B_{a, λ} $ for $ a = 0.5 $ , $ Re(λ)\in(-8.7× 10^{-5}, 7.3×10^{-5}) $ and $ Im(λ)\in(-8× 10^{-5}, 8×10^{-5}) $ . The right figure is a magnification of the left one. The colours are as follows. We use a scaling from yellow to red to plot parameters such that $ c_-\in A(\infty) $ and green otherwise

Figure 6.  Scheme of the dynamics described in Theorem 2.5. We draw in red the preimages of zero and in black the critical points

Figure 7.  Summary of the dynamics of $ B_{a, λ} $ described in Proposition 3.1. The triply connected region $ \mathcal{U}_c $ is mapped with degree 4 onto the annulus $ B_{a, λ}(\mathcal{U}_c) $ . The green annular region $ \mathcal{V}_4 $ is mapped with degree 4 to the green annular region $ \mathcal{W}_4 $ . The blue annular region $ \mathcal{V}_3 $ is mapped with degree 3 to the blue annular region $ \mathcal{W}_3 $ . The pallid blue disk $ \mathcal{V}_1 $ is mapped with degree 1 to the region bounded by $ B_{a, λ}(\mathcal{U}_c) $ . The red region $ \mathcal{V}_2 $ is mapped with degree 2 to the full annular region bounded by $ A^*(\infty) $ and $ T_0 $ . Since $ \mathcal{U}_c\subset \mathcal{W}_4 $ , $ \mathcal{V}_4\subset \mathcal{W}_4 $ and either $ B_{a, λ}(\mathcal{U}_c) = A_0 $ or $ B_{a, λ}(\mathcal{U}_c)\subset \mathcal{V}_3\cup \mathcal{V}_2 $
