Complex Analysis, Dynamics and Geometry Seminar

In this talk, we will consider the angular component of multipliers of repelling cycles of a hyperbolic rational map in one complex variable. Oh-Winter have shown that these angles of multipliers uniformly distribute in the circle (-\pi, \pi]. Motivated by the sector problem in number theory, we show that for a fixed $K \gg 1$, almost all intervals of length 2\pi/K in (-\pi, \pi] contains a multiplier angle with the property that the norm of the multiplier is bounded above by a polynomial in K. This is joint work with Hongming Nie. Speaker(s): Mary He (UToronto)
