Combinatorial rigidity for some infinitely renormalizable unicritical polynomials
I will explain a proof of combinatorial rigidity for some class of
infinitely renormalizable unicritical polynomials, by assuming a priori
bounds for the class.
April 21 Trevor Clark
Dimensions in holomorphic dynamics
I will discuss a few notions of dimension that arise in the study of Julia
sets and describe some of the cases where they coincide.

Abstract:
Following an observation made more than 20 years ago by Derrida, De Seze & Itzykson we show that it is possible to get from a map (decoration) acting on the space of hypergraphs to a rational map acting on a proper complex manifold that turns out to be a complex multiprojective space of suitable (multi)dimension. We will show some relationships between the decoration map and dynamical properties of the related rational map such as algebraic stability, distribution of indetermination set.

We will focus on examples as general statements are still lacking the proper sharpness.
