We show that the escaping set of this function - that is, the set of points whose orbits tend to infinity under iteration - has a structure known as a \"spider's web\". This disproves a conjecture of Sixsmith from 2020. In fact, we show that the \"fast escaping set\", i.e. the set of points whose orbits tend to infinity at an iterated exponential rate, is a spider's web. This answers a question of Rippon and Stallard from 2012. We also discuss a wider class of functions to which our results apply, and state some open questions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-10-28T13:21:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37F10", "30D05" ], "keywords": [ "eremenko-lyubich class", "orbits tend", "spiders web", "open questions", "wider class" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
