Parameter self-similarity conjecture for critical quasicircle maps
Parameter self-similarity conjecture for critical quasicircle maps
Let and be the local degrees of the critical fixed points at and , respectively, and let be the one-parameter family of rational maps of degree with those critical fixed points and a full-degree critical point at satisfying . For each , let be the parameter for which admits an invariant quasicircle through with rotation number . Parameter self-similarity conjecture. For every , the bifurcation locus of is asymptotically self-similar at , with a universal self-similarity factor depending only on . Computer pictures suggest this phenomenon, but no general proof is given; it remains open.
