We fully generalize this notion by a new quantity, called the (general) core entropy, which is well defined whenever f has a connected Julia set. If f is PCF, the core entropy equals the classical version. If two polynomials f and g are J-equivalent then they share the same core entropy. If f is unicritical and has no irrationally neutral cycle, we can identify a compact subset of the unit circle invariant under the doubling map whose Hausdorff dimension equals the ratio of the core entropy to log(d). We also carefully analyze the function that sends every parameter c in the Mandelbrot set to the core entropy of the polynomial z^2+c.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-01-30T02:06:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "54D05", "54H20", "37F45", "37E99" ], "keywords": [ "connected julia set", "polynomial", "core entropy equals", "unit circle invariant", "hausdorff dimension equals" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 42, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
