1 DYNAMICAL DESSINS ARE DENSE CHRISTOPHER J. BISHOP AND KEVIN M. PILGRIM Abstract. We apply a recent result of the first author to prove the following result: any continuum in the plane can be approximated arbitrarily closely in the Hausdorff topology by the Julia set of a critically finite polynomial with two finite postcritical points. 1. Introduction Given compact subsets A, B C their Hausdorff distance d(a, B) is given by d(a, B) = inf{r : A N r (B), B N r (A)} where N r (A), N r (B) denote the r-neighborhoods of A and B, respectively. Given a polynomial g C[z], we denote by g n the nth iterate of g, and define its filled-in Julia set K(g) = {z : g n (z) }, basin of infinity A(g) = {z : g n (z) }, and Julia set J(g) = K(g). K. Lindsey and W. Thurston [LT, Theorem 1.4] have shown the following: Theorem 1. Given any bounded, simply connected set A C and any ɛ > 0, there exists a polynomial g C[z] such that (1) d(k(g), A) < ɛ (2) d(j(g), A) < ɛ (3) d(a(g), C A) < ɛ. Their proof is constructive; they apply their method to a simple Jordan domain A outlining the figure of a cat, yielding a polynomial g of degree 301. In this note, we generalize conclusion (2) of their theorem. Though not yet as practically implementable, our result strengthens the conclusion by showing that the polynomial g may be taken to be very special. Recall that a continuum is a compact connected set; it is a dendrite if in addition it is locally connected and contains no simple closed curves. A polynomial g C[z] is critically finite if P (g) = k 1 g n (C(g)) is finite, where C(g) = {c : g (c) = 0}. If g is critically finite, the following facts are known (see e.g. [M]): J(g) is connected and locally connected, and is a dendrite if and only if no element of C(g) is periodic.

2 2 C. J. BISHOP AND K. M. PILGRIM Theorem 2. Given any continuum K C and any ɛ > 0, there is a critically finite polynomial g C[z] such that #P (g) = 2, the Julia set J(g) is a dendrite, and d(k, J(g)) < ɛ. The proof has three steps. Suppose K C is a continuum and ɛ > 0 is given. 1. A polynomial f is a Belyi polynomial if deg(f) > 1 and if its set of critical values f(c(f)) is contained in the set {0, 1}. We denote by BP the set of Belyi polynomials. If f BP, its dessin is D(f) := f 1 ([0, 1]). We regard D(f) as a planar tree with vertices V (f) := f 1 ({0, 1}); its edges e are the closures of the components of f 1 ((0, 1)). The first author has recently shown the following, which is the main result of [B]. Theorem 3. Given any continuum K C and any ɛ > 0, there exists f BP for which d(k, D(f)) < ɛ. Moreover, one may assume that for each v V (f), deg(f, v) Next, we apply the preceding theorem to obtain a polynomial f BP. Let q(z) = 4z(1 z). Note that q BP and that q([0, 1]) = q 1 ([0, 1]) = [0, 1]. For each n N, we have q n f BP and D(q n f) = D(f) as subsets of C. Their tree structures differ: each edge of D(f) is a union of 2 n edges of D(q n f). 3. By replacing f with q f we may assume that the local degree of f at each point in f 1 (1) is equal to two. Suppose v 0, v 1 V (f) are leaves of D(f), that is, vertices of valence 1. Note that by our assumption, f(v 0 ) = f(v 1 ) = 0. Fix n N. Following the second author [P] we turn q n f into a dynamical system. There is a unique complex affine map A : C C for which A(0) = v 0 and A(1) = v 1. Let g = A q n f; thus g has two branch values, namely {v 0, v 1 }. Abusing notation slightly, we denote V (g) = g 1 ({v 0, v 1 }). Each critical point of g maps either to v 0 or to v 1 ; by construction, v 0 = g(v 0 ) = g(v 1 ), and g (v 0 ) 0. It follows that P (g) = {v 0, v 1 }, so that g is critically finite, and that every critical point lands on the fixed point v 0 under iteration of g. It is a general fact that all fixed points of a critically finite map g are either critical points or they lie in the Julia set. We conclude v 0 J(g) and that J(g) is a dendrite. Figure 1. At left: the dessin of f(z) = z 3 subdivided n = 5 times. At right: g 1 ([v 0, v 1 ]), which is an approximation of J(g); its greater apparent thickness is an artifact of plotting the approximately vertices. Images courtesy of Don Marshall.
3 DYNAMICAL DESSINS ARE DENSE 3 The proof of Theorem 2 then rests upon establishing the closeness that Figure 2 suggests: Lemma 1. The Hausdorff distance d(d(f), J(g)) 0 as n. 2. Proof of Lemma 1 Suppose f, q, n, g are as in Step 3 of the outline given in the Introduction. Lemma 2. The maximum diameter of an edge e of D(q n f) tends to zero as n. Proof. An easy exercise shows the conclusion holds for the polynomial q itself. Suppose f BP. Since the inverse branches of f are uniformly continuous on (0, 1), the general conclusion holds. Denote D = D(f) and M = diam(d). In the following paragraph, we cover D by a pair of Jordan domains: one containing v 0 but not v 1, the other containing v 1 but not v 0. We will show that as n the diameters of the preimages of these domains under g tend to zero. We will need some Koebe space around these domains. See Figure 2. W 1 v 0 v 1 Figure 2. Caricature of W 1. The domain W 0 is similar. The domain Ŵ 1 is the portion of the disk to the right of the vertical segment. Notation: B(a, r) = { z a < r}. Let v 0 = 7v 0 + v 1, v 0 = 3v 0 + v v 1 = v 0 + 7v 1, v 1 = v 0 + 3v 1 8 ( 4 ) v1 + v 0 W := B, 10M 2 Ŵ 1 i = W { z v i < z v i }, i = 0, 1 ( ) v0 + v 1 W 1 i = B, 9M { z v i < z v i }, i = 0, 1. 2 By construction, Ŵi {v 0, v 1 } = v i, i = 0, 1;
4 4 C. J. BISHOP AND K. M. PILGRIM D W 0 W 1 ; Ŵi \ W i is an annulus, i = 0, 1; each component of g 1 (Ŵ0), g 1 (Ŵ1) contains precisely one element ṽ of V (g). Thus for each ṽ V (g) we have a proper map of pairs g : ( Ŵ ṽ, Wṽ) (Ŵ, W ) where W = W 0 or W 1. Lemma 3. max{diam( Wṽ) : ṽ V (g)} 0 as n. Proof. Put ( Ŵ, W ) = ( Ŵ ṽ, Wṽ). The control on the local degrees of the polynomial f in Theorem 3 shows that k = deg(g, ṽ) {1, 2, 4}. Thus the restriction g : Ŵ Ŵ is proper and is ramified only at ṽ, hence has degree k. Up to precomposition with a rotation, there is a unique Riemann map φ : (B(0, 1), 0) (Ŵ, ṽ). Hence there exist 0 < r < s < 1 independent of i, n, ṽ such that if U = φ 1 (W ), then B(0, r) U B(0, s) B(0, 1). Put Ũ = {z B(0, 1) zk U} so that B(0, r 1/k ) Ũ B(0, s1/k ) B(0, 1). The Riemann map φ : B(0, 1) Ŵ lifts to a Riemann map φ : B(0, 1) Ŵ such that φ(ũ) = W : φ : (B(0, 1), Ũ, 0) ( Ŵ, W, ṽ). The rescaled map ψ = φ (0) 1 ( φ φ(0)) is an element of the class S of Schlicht functions: injective holomorphic maps ψ : B(0, 1) C with the normalization ψ(0) = 0, ψ (0) = 1. By [A, Theorem 5.3], for all z B(0, 1) and all Schlicht functions ψ, z (1 + z ) 2 ψ(z) z (1 z ) 2. Hence upon setting we have ρ = r 1/k (1 + r 1/k ) 2, σ = s 1/k (1 + s 1/k ) 2, δ = φ (0) B(ṽ, ρδ) W B(ṽ, σδ). Let e be any one of the k components of g 1 ((v 0, v 1 )) whose closure meets ṽ. Since (0, 1) W, we have e W, so which implies ρδ < diam(e) σδ < diam(e) σ ρ and so diam( W ) 2σδ < 2 diam(e) σ ρ 0 as n, by Lemma 2. The constants ρ, σ are independent of n and of the choice of ṽ, so the proof is complete.
5 DYNAMICAL DESSINS ARE DENSE 5 Denote J = J(g). Pick ɛ < 1 2 sup{ a b : a D, b C \ W 0 W 1 }. Apply Lemma 3 to obtain n so that diam( Wṽ) < ɛ for all ṽ V (g). On the one hand, g 1 (W 0 W 1 ) = Wṽ }{{} N ɛ (D) W 0 W 1 ṽ V Lemma 2 and so W 0 W 1 is backward-invariant under g. It is a general fact that J may be equivalently defined as the smallest closed subset of C satisfying #J > 1 and g 1 (J) J; see [M]. Thus J W 0 W 1. By invariance of J we have then J g 1 (W 0 W 1 ) = Wṽ N ɛ (D). ṽ V On the other hand, V J, so N ɛ (J) N ɛ (V ) ṽ V Wṽ D.
