2 Background Definition: Let f be a polynomial or transcendental entire map. The map N := N f (z) = z f (z) f (z) is called the Newton s map associated to f. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 2 / 18

3 Background Definition: Let f be a polynomial or transcendental entire map. The map N := N f (z) = z f (z) f (z) is called the Newton s map associated to f. If f is polynomial then N f is rational. If f is transcendental entire then (generally) N f is transcendental meromorphic. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 2 / 18

6 Background Definition: Let f be a polynomial or transcendental entire map. The map N := N f (z) = z f (z) f (z) is called the Newton s map associated to f. If f is polynomial then N f is rational. If f is transcendental entire then (generally) N f is transcendental meromorphic. Newton s method is one of the oldest and best known root-finding algorithms. It was one of the main motivations for the classical theory of holomorphic dynamics. It defines a very interesting class of meromorphic maps: Those with NO FINITE NON-ATTRACTING FIXED POINTS K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 2 / 18

11 Holomorphic dynamics: Phase space We divide the dynamical plane (phase space) in two completely invariant subsets: (a) The Fatou set: z Ĉ is in the Fatou set if f is normal at z. That is if there exist a neighborhood U of z such that f n U converge in compact subsets of U (to a holomorphic map or to infinity). We denote this set by F(f ). (b) The Julia set: The complement of F(f ) in Ĉ. We denote it by J (f ). Remark: If f is transcedental then J (f ). K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 7 / 18

13 Topological lemma Lemma/Definition: The Fatou set is open (and its complement, J (f ), is closed). Each connected component of F(f ) is called Fatou domain or Fatou component. They are either periodic (attracting basins, parabolic basins, Siegel discs, Herman rings or Baker domains), preperiodic or wandering. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 9 / 18

16 Main Theorem and (direct) strategy proof Main Theorem: Let f be a polynomial or an entire transcendental function. Then, J (N f ) is connected. Equivalently, all connected components of the Fatou set are simply connected. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 10 / 18

17 Main Theorem and (direct) strategy proof Main Theorem: Let f be a polynomial or an entire transcendental function. Then, J (N f ) is connected. Equivalently, all connected components of the Fatou set are simply connected. Definition: Let f be a rational or transcendental function. Let z 0 Ĉ a fixed point of f, that is, f (z 0 ) = z 0. We say that z 0 is a weakly repelling fixed point (WRFP) if f (z 0 ) > 1 or f (z 0 ) = 1. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 10 / 18

Then N f has no finite WRFP. K.B.; N.F. ; X.J. ; B.K. () Newton maps 10 / 18

20 A nice application to polynomials Definition: Let P be a polynomial. Let α C be a zero of P and so a (super) attracting fixed point of N P. Then, we define the basin of attraction of α as A(α) := {z 0 C lim n Nn P (z 0) = α} Moreover, we denote by A (α) A(α) the immediate basin of attraction of α, that it the component of A(α) containing α.
