For quadratic rational maps, a complete description of the possible rescaling limits is given. These results are obtained employing tools from non-Archimedean dynamics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-11-14T19:55:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "complex rational maps", "quadratic rational maps", "approach infinity", "dynamically distinct rescaling limits", "non-archimedean dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1211.3397K" } } }
