We also introduce ``virtual immediate basins'' in which the dynamics converges to infinity; we prove that these are simply connected as well.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-03-21T14:19:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "30D05", "37F10", "37N30" ], "keywords": [ "virtual basins", "entire functions", "newtons method", "entire holomorphic functions", "virtual immediate basins" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2004math......3336M" } } }
