An optimal eighth-order class of three-step weighted Newton's methods and their dynamics behind the purely imaginary extraneous fixed points

TL;DR: An optimal class of three-step eighth-order methods with higher order weight functions employed in the second and third sub-steps is developed along with a main theorem stating the order of convergence and the asymptotic error constant.

Semiconjugacies between the Julia sets of geometrically finite rational maps

TL;DR: In this article, a rational map f is called geometrically finite if every critical point contained in its Julia set is eventually periodic and if a perturbation of f into another rational map is horocyclic and preserves the critical orbit relations with respect to the Julia set of f, then a semiconjugacy or a topological conjugacy between their dynamics on the Julia sets is constructed.

Jordan domain and Fatou set concerning diamond-like hierarchical Potts models

TL;DR: For the Potts models on the diamond-like hierarchical lattice, the domains of the complex phases are indeed the Fatou components of a family of rational maps as discussed by the authors, and the relationships between this family of fatou components and the Jordan domains are described completely.

Wandering domains and nontrivial reduction in non-archimedean dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Fatou set of rational functions has wandering components and that the existence of a wandering domain implies that some iterate has nontrivial reduction in some coordinate.

On the dynamics of a family of singularly perturbed rational maps

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the dynamical behavior of the family of complex rational maps, which can be seen as a perturbation of the unicritical polynomial z ↦ z n if λ is small.
