Abstract
This paper attempts to describe some of the results obtained in the iteration theory of transcendental meromorphic functions, not excluding the case of entire functions. The reader is not expected to be familiar with the iteration theory of rational functions. On the other hand, some aspects where the transcendental case is analogous to the rational case are treated rather briefly here. For example, we introduce the different types of components of the Fatou set that occur in the iteration of rational functions but omit a detailed description of these types. Instead, we concentrate on the types of components that are special to transcendental functions (Baker domains and wandering domains).

Dimensions of Julia sets of hyperbolic entire functions

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that there is a family of hyperbolic transcendental entire functions with infinitely many poles for which the Hausdorff, packing and box dimensions of the Julia set of a rational function are equal.

Meromorphic functions of one complex variable. A survey

TL;DR: Goldberg and Ostrovskii as discussed by the authors survey the results obtained on the topics of the book after 1970 and present an appendix to the English translation of this book by A A Goldberg and I V Ostrovkii, Distribution of values of meromorphic functions.

Newton's method and Baker domains

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there exists an entire function f without zeros for which the associated Newton function N(z)=z-f(z)/f'(z) is a transcendental meromorphic function without Baker domains.

Iteration of the Translated Tangent

TL;DR: In this article, the iteration of the map on the complex plane is investigated for each complex number and it is shown that its Fatou set always contains a completely invariant component and the Julia set is either totally disconnected or connected.

On permutable meromorphic functions

TL;DR: In this article, the class of functions meromorphic outside a countable closed set of essential singularities is studied, and it is shown that the set of functions in this class that permute with itself and with the identity map is countably infinite.

Simple mathematical models with very complicated dynamics

TL;DR: This is an interpretive review of first-order difference equations, which can exhibit a surprising array of dynamical behaviour, from stable points, to a bifurcating hierarchy of stable cycles, to apparently random fluctuations.

An introduction to chaotic dynamical systems

TL;DR: In this article, the quadratic family has been used to define hyperbolicity in linear algebra and advanced calculus, including the Julia set and the Mandelbrot set.
Book

Dynamics and Bifurcations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present ideas and examples about the geometry of dynamics and bifurcations of ordinary differential equations, and demonstrate that the basic notion of stability and stability of vector fields can be easily explained for scalar autonomous equations.

The Beauty of Fractals

TL;DR: A can is a can made of a steel sheet the surface of which is coated with a three-layered chromium coating, consisting of a metallic chromium coated, a crystalline chromium oxide coating and a non-crystalline hydrated chromiumoxide coating in this order.
