1 On W. Thurston s core-entropy theory Bill in Jackfest, Feb It started out... in 1975 or so. My first job after graduate school was, I was the assistant of Milnor... At one point, I d gotten a programmable HP desktop calculator and a pen plotter, I started fooling around with logistic maps... presented by Tan Lei (Université d Angers, France) Cornell, June 2014

16 What is Core(z 2 + c) for c complex?
17 What is Core(z 2 + c) for c complex? If exists, a good substitute is the Hubbard tree : the smallest finite tree in K f containing the iterated orbit of 0. It is automatically forward invariant.
18 What is Core(z 2 + c) for c complex? If exists, a good substitute is the Hubbard tree : the smallest finite tree in K f containing the iterated orbit of 0. It is automatically forward invariant. Trees do exist for a (combinatorially) dense set of z 2 + c...

29 Core-entropy of cubic primitive majors.
30 Parametrize degree-d majors? Bill at Topology Festival, May 2012 "It took me a while to realize that the set of degree-d majors describes a spine for the set of d disjoint points in C, that is, its fundamental group is the braid group and higher homotopy groups are trivial."
31 Let s try to trace Bill s discovery path : 26 march 2011 For quadratics : this just means a single diameter of the circle. For cubics : / z 2 -action / z 3 -action middle annulus upper curve lower curve generic parallel triangle
32 See also Branner-Hubbard 1985 "This figure can be embedded in S 3, which should somehow connect to the parameter space picture" (show Rugh s scilab animations...)
33 "You can make a Moebius band by twisting a long thin strip 3 half-turns, so that its boundary is a trefoil knot. In S 3, if you make the Moebius band wider and wider, eventually you can make the boundary collide with itself in a circle, where it wraps around the circle 3 times. Another way to say this : take two great circles in S 3... This is also a spine for the complement of the discriminant locus for cubic polynomials, but I m not sure how that description fits in." Next day. "I think you can describe this surface implicitly as... " "I don t know exactly how this relates either to the cubic major set or to the parameter space, but it s suggestive."

38 Combining with kneading theory? Bill wrote (march 2011) : "For real polynomials, the kneading determinant works really well to get entropy. I m trying to understand how this theory generalizes, particularly so entropy can be directly computed for cases that are not postcritically finite. Maybe there s a method that s essentially the same... I m interested in understanding the monotonicity issue how to make a partial order on the kneading data that makes entropy monotone."

40 Kneading on Hubbard trees, work of Tiozzo ( )
41 Bill in March-April 2012 "I m getting geared up to prove the continuity of entropy... " "I ve been working out more of the theory of invariant laminations, partial ordering (generalizing the tree structure for degree 2) and entropy... I ve been enjoying it. " "Better for more people to be involved. The next topic is to investigate more carefully the topology of the boundary of the connectedness locus for higher degree polynomials... it s rather intricate and interesting, and I want to get it right. It s a fun and interesting topic..."
