Cantor and Sierpinski, Julia and Fatou: Complex Topology Meets Complex Dynamics Robert L. Devaney Introduction The Julia set is the complement of the Fatou set: Topologists have enjoyed pondering the exotic It consists of points for which nearby orbits behave properties of fascinating objects such as inde- in vastly di erent manners. This is the “chaotic” set composable continua, Sierpinski curves, and Cantor for such maps. By a classical theorem of Montel, i bouquets for almost one hundred years, while z is a point in the Julia set of F and Uis any neigh- complex dynamicists have only recently begun to borhood of z, then the union of the forward images enjoy the beauty and intricacy of fractal objects of U contains the entire plane (with the exception known as the Julia sets. Recent developments, of at most one point). So F depends quite sensitively however, have brought both of these fields closer on initial conditions on its Julia set in the sense that together, as many of the extraordinary spaces from a small error in specifying the initial point can lead planar topology have now been shown to arise as to huge changes in the fate of the orbit. There are Julia sets. In this article we describe a few of these other equivalent definitions of the Julia set. For ex- topological incursions into complex dynamics. ample, the Julia set is also the closure of the set o repelling periodic points for F. From a dynamical sys- Julia Sets
