Abstract

I will discuss Hausdorff (fractal) dimension of limit Julia sets arising when iterating complex polynomials or rational functions on the Riemann sphere.

Methods used, belong to the thermodynamic formalism involving Kolmogorov entropy, Lyapunov exponents and geometric pressure and equilibria. A relation with the boundary behavior of conformal maps on the unit disc will be mentioned.
