Iteration of Rational Functions: Complex Analytic Dynamical Systems

by Alan F. Beardon

Book Overview

This book focuses on complex analytic dynamics, which dates from 1916 and is currently attracting considerable interest. The text provides a comprehensive, well-organized treatment of the foundations of the theory of iteration of rational functions of a complex variable.
