Complex dynamics

Complex dynamics is the study of dynamical systems defined by iteration of functions on complex number spaces. Complex analytic dynamics is the study of the dynamics of specifically analytic functions.

  • in one complex variable
  • in several complex variables

• Conformal dynamics unites holomorphic dynamics in one complex variable with differentiable dynamics in one real variable.
