Complex quadratic polynomial

Complex quadratic polynomial

A complex quadratic polynomial is a quadratic polynomial whose coefficients are complex numbers.

Contents

Forms

When the quadratic polynomial has only one variable ( univariate ), one can distinguish its 4 main forms:

  • The general form,  f(x) =  a_2 x^2 + a_1 x + a_0 \,.
  • The factored form used for logistic map f_r(x) = r x ( 1-x ) \,
  •  f_{\theta}(x) = x^2 + e^{2 \pi \theta} x  \, which has an indifferent fixed point with multiplier e^{2 \pi \theta} \, at the origin[1]
  • The monic and centered form, f_c(x) = x^2 +c\,


The monic and centered form has the following properties:

Conjugation

Between forms

Since f_c(x) \, is affine conjugate to the general form of the quadratic polynomial it is often used to study complex dynamics and to create images of Mandelbrot, Julia and Fatou sets.


When one wants change from \theta\, to c \, :

c = c(\theta) = \frac {e^{2 \pi \theta}}{2} \left(1 - \frac {e^{2 \pi \theta}}{2}\right) [4]

When one wants change from r\, to c \, :


c = c(r)\,=\,\frac{1- (r-1)^2}{4}

With doubling map

There is semi-conjugacy between the dyadic transformation (here named doubling map) and the quadratic polynomial.

Family

The family of quadratic polynomials f_c : z \to z^2 +c\, parametrised by  c \in \mathbb{C} \, is called :

  • the Douady-Hubbard family of quadratic polynomials [5]
  • quadratic family

Map

The monic and centered form is typically used with variable z\, and parameter c\,

f_c(z) = z^2 +c.\,

When it is used as an evolution function of the discrete nonlinear dynamical system:

z_{n+1} = f_c(z_n)  \,

it is named quadratic map[6]

f_c : z \to z^2 + c. \,

Notation

Here  f^n \, denotes the n-th iteration of the function  f \, not exponentiation

f_c^n(z) = f_c^1(f_c^{n-1}(z)) \,

so

z_n = f_c^n(z_0). \,

Because the above notation can have many meanings Milnor writes f^{\circ n}\, for nth iterate of function f.\,

Critical items

A critical point of f_c\, is a point  z_{cr} \, in the dynamical plane such that the derivative vanishes :

f_c'(z_{cr}) = 0. \,

Since

f_c'(z) = \frac{d}{dz}f_c(z) = 2z

implies

 z_{cr} = 0\,

we see that the only (finite) critical point of f_c \, is the point  z_{cr} = 0\,.

Critical value

A critical value z_{cv} \ of f_c\, is the image of a critical point:

z_{cv} =  f_c(z_{cr})   \,

Since

 z_{cr} = 0\,

we have

z_{cv} =  c.   \,

So the parameter   c   \, is the critical value of f_c(z). \,

Critical orbit

Dynamical plane with critical orbit falling into 3-period cycle
Dynamical plane with Julia set and critical orbit.
Dynamical plane : changes of critical orbit along internal ray of main cardioid for angle 1/6
Critical orbit tending to weakly attracting fixed point with abs(multiplier)=0.99993612384259

Forward orbit of a critical point is called a critical orbit. Critical orbits are very important because every attracting periodic orbit attracts a critical point, so studying the critical orbits helps us understand the dynamics in the Fatou set.[7][8]

z_0 = z_{cr} = 0\,

z_1 = f_c(z_0) = c\,

z_2 = f_c(z_1) = c^2 +c\,

z_3 = f_c(z_2) = (c^2 + c)^2 + c\,

... \,

This orbit falls into an attracting periodic cycle

Critical sector

The critical sector is a sector of the dynamical plane containing the critical point .

Critical polynomial

P_n(c) = f_c^n(z_{cr}) = f_c^n(0) \,

so

P_0(c)= 0 \,

P_1(c) = c \,

P_2(c) = c^2 + c \,

P_3(c) = (c^2 + c)^2 + c \,

These polynomials are used for :

  • finding centers of these Mandelbrot set components of period n. Centers are roots of n-th critical polynomials

centers = \{ c : P_n(c) = 0 \}\,

  • finding roots of Mandelbrot set components of period n ( local minimum of P_n(c) \, )
  • Misiurewicz points

M_{n,k} = \{ c : P_k(c) = P_{k+n}(c) \}\,

Critical curves

Diagrams of critical polynomials are called critical curves.[9]

These curves create skeleton of bifurcation diagram [10] ( the dark lines [11])

Planes

w-plane and c-plane

One can use the Julia-Mandelbrot 4-dimensional space for a global analysis of this dynamical system[12].

In this space there are 2 basic types of 2-D planes :

  • the dynamical ( dynamic ) plane, f_c\,-plane or c-plane
  • the parameter plane or z-plane.

There is also another plane used to analyze such dynamical systems w-plane :

  • the conjugation plane[13]
  • model plane [14]

Parameter plane

Gamma parameter plane for complex logistic map z_{n+1} = \gamma z_n \left(1 - z_n\right),

The phase space of a quadratic map is called its parameter plane. Here:

z0 = z_{cr} \, is constant and c\, is variable.

There is no dynamics here. It is only a set of parameter values. There are no orbits on the parameter plane.

The parameter plane consists of :

There are many different subtypes of the parameter plane[16] [17]

Dynamical plane

On the dynamical plane one can find:

The dynamical plane consists of:

Here, c\, is a constant and z\, is a variable.

The two-dimensional dynamical plane can be treated as a Poincare cross-section of three-dimensional space of continuous dynamical system.[18] [19]

Derivatives

Derivative with respect to c

On parameter plane :

  • c is a variable
  • z0 = 0 is constant

The first derivative of f_c^n(z_0) with respect to c is

z_n' = \frac{d}{dc} f_c^n(z_0).

This derivative can be found by iteration starting with

z_0' = \frac{d}{dc} f_c^0(z_0) = 1

and then replacing at every consecutive step

z_{n+1}' = \frac{d}{dc} f_c^{n+1}(z_0) = 2\cdot{}f_c^n(z)\cdot\frac{d}{dc} f_c^n(z_0) + 1 = 2 \cdot z_n \cdot z_n' +1.

This can easily be verified by using the chain rule for the derivative.

This derivative is used in the distance estimation method for drawing a Mandelbrot set.

Derivative with respect to z

On dynamical plane :

  • z is a variable
  • c is a constant


at a fixed point z_0\,

f_c'(z_0) = \frac{d}{dz}f_c(z_0) = 2z_0

at a periodic point z0 of period p

(f_c^p)'(z_0) = \frac{d}{dz}f_c^p(z_0) =  \prod_{i=0}^{p-1} f_c'(z_i) = 2^p \prod_{i=0}^{p-1} z_i.

It is used to check the stability of periodic (also fixed) points.

at nonperiodic point :

z'_n\,

This derivative can be found by iteration starting with

z'_0 = 1 \,

and then :

z'_n= 2*z_{n-1}*z'_{n-1}\,

This dervative is used for computing external distance to Julia set.

Schwarzian derivative

The Schwarzian derivative (SD for short) of f is :[20]

 (Sf)(z) = \frac{f'''(z)}{f'(z)} - \frac{3}{2} \left ( \frac{f''(z)}{f'(z)}\right ) ^2
