Recently, Benini et al showed that, in simply connected wandering domains of entire functions, all pairs of orbits behave in the same way relative to the hyperbolic metric, thus giving us our first insight into the general internal dynamics of such domains. The author proved in a recent paper [G. R. Ferreira. Multiply connected wandering domains of meromorphic functions: internal dynamics andconnectivity. J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 106 (2022), 1897–1919] that the same is not true for multiply connected wandering domains, a natural question is how inhomogeneous multiply connected wandering domains can be. We give an answer to this question, in that we show that uniform dynamics inside an open subset of the domain generalizes to the whole wandering domain. As an application of this result, we construct the first example of a meromorphic function with a semi-contracting infinitely connected wandering domain.

A holomorphic endomorphism of ${{\mathbb {CP}}}^n$ is post-critically algebraic if its critical hypersurfaces are periodic or preperiodic. This notion generalizes the notion of post-critically finite rational maps in dimension one. We will study the eigenvalues of the differential of such a map along a periodic cycle. When $n=1$ , a well-known fact is that the eigenvalue along a periodic cycle of a post-critically finite rational map is either superattracting or repelling. We prove that, when $n=2$ , the eigenvalues are still either superattracting or repelling. This is an improvement of a result by Mattias Jonsson [Some properties of 2-critically finite holomorphic maps of P2. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.18(1) (1998), 171–187]. When $n\geq 2$ and the cycle is outside the post-critical set, we prove that the eigenvalues are repelling. This result improves one obtained by Fornæss and Sibony [Complex dynamics in higher dimension. II. Modern Methods in Complex Analysis (Princeton, NJ, 1992) (Annals of Mathematics Studies, 137). Ed. T. Bloom, D. W. Catlin, J. P. D’Angelo and Y.-T. Siu, Princeton University Press, 1995, pp. 135–182] under a hyperbolicity assumption on the complement of the post-critical set.

For a sequence of complex parameters $(c_n)$ we consider the composition of functions $f_{c_n} (z) = z^2 + c_n$ , the non-autonomous version of the classical quadratic dynamical system. The definitions of Julia and Fatou sets are naturally generalized to this setting. We answer a question posed by Brück, Büger and Reitz, whether the Julia set for such a sequence is almost always totally disconnected, if the values $c_n$ are chosen randomly from a large disc. Our proof is easily generalized to answer a lot of other related questions regarding typical connectivity of the random Julia set. In fact we prove the statement for a much larger family of sets than just discs; in particular if one picks $c_n$ randomly from the main cardioid of the Mandelbrot set, then the Julia set is still almost always totally disconnected.

We consider cubic polynomials $f\left( z \right)\,=\,{{z}^{3}}\,+\,az\,+\,b$ defined over $\mathbb{C}\left( \lambda \right)$, with a marked point of period $N$ and multiplier $\lambda$. In the case $N\,=\,1$, there are infinitely many such objects, and in the case $N\,\ge \,3$, only finitely many (subject to a mild assumption). The case $N\,=\,2$ has particularly rich structure, and we are able to describe all such cubic polynomials defined over the field ${{\cup }_{n\ge 1}}\,\mathbb{C}\left( {{\lambda }^{1/n}} \right)$.

The ergodic theory and geometry of the Julia set of meromorphic functions on the complex plane with polynomial Schwarzian derivative are investigated under the condition that the function is semi-hyperbolic, i.e. the asymptotic values of the Fatou set are in attracting components and the asymptotic values in the Julia set are boundedly non-recurrent. We first show the existence, uniqueness, conservativity and ergodicity of a conformal measure m with minimal exponent h; furthermore, we show weak metrical exactness of this measure. Then we prove the existence of a σ-finite invariant measure μ absolutely continuous with respect to m. Our main result states that μ is finite if and only if the order ρ of the function f satisfies the condition h > 3ρ/(ρ+1). When finite, this measure is shown to be metrically exact. We also establish a version of Bowen's Formula, showing that the exponent h equals the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set of f.

Lattès and Kummer examples are rational transformations of compact kähler manifolds that are covered by an affine transformation of a compact torus. We present a few ergodic characteristic properties of these examples. The main results concern the case of surfaces.
