(For $d=2$ it was proved by Yoccoz around 1990.) It follows from a priori bounds in a modified Principle Nest of puzzle pieces. The proof of a priori bounds makes use of new analytic tools developed in math.DS/0505191 that give control of moduli of annuli under maps of high degree.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-05-10T17:51:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37F45" ], "keywords": [ "julia set", "local connectivity", "priori bounds", "high degree", "puzzle pieces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......5194K" } } }
