Julia Set - Equivalent Descriptions of The Julia Set

Equivalent Descriptions of The Julia Set

  • is the smallest closed set containing at least three points which is completely invariant under .
  • is the closure of the set of repelling periodic points.
  • For all but at most two points, the Julia set is the set of limit points of the full backwards orbit . (This suggests a simple algorithm for plotting Julia sets, see below.)
  • If is an entire function - in particular, when is a polynomial, then is the boundary of the set of points which converge to infinity under iteration.
  • If is a polynomial, then is the boundary of the filled Julia set; that is, those points whose orbits under iterations of remain bounded.

    Whenas in silks my Julia goes,
    Then, then, methinks, how sweeetly flows
    That liquefaction of her clothes.
