This question is related to a classification of rational maps in terms of properties of their Julia set.



Let $f= z^2 + c$, with $cin mathbbC$ be a quadratic polynomial such that its Julia set $J(f)$ is connected.



  • Q1: If there exists a relatively open set of $J(f)$ that is (the support of) a smooth curve. Is $f$ conjugate (resp equal) to a Tchebychev polynomial or power map $z^2$?

  • Q2: Is the answer to Q1 yes under the additional assumption that $J(f)$ is also locally connected?

  • Q3: If the answer to Q1 is no, can one describe the set of such counterexamples in terms of the parameter $c$?

Thanks a lot.

          The answer to a) is yes, and this was proved by Fatou in 1919.

            They take $f$ arbitrary holomorphic. What's meant by "is the unit circle"? If one conjugates $zmapsto z^2$ by an affine map, one can get any circle.

            They take $f$ arbitrary holomorphic. What's meant by "is the unit circle"? If one conjugates $zmapsto z^2$ by an affine map, one can get any circle.

            Thanks for the answer. However I wasn't able to track down the statement using their reference. Maybe it is somewhere in Milnor and I have overlooked it.
