## Étude dynamique des polynômes complexes.(French)Zbl 0552.30018

Publ. Math. Orsay 84-02, 75 p. (1984).
These notes expound some of the results announced by the authors [C. R. Acad. Sci., Paris, Sér. I 294, 123-125 (1982; Zbl 0483.30014)] and sketched by the first author in Sémin. Bourbaki, 35e anneé, Vol. 1980/81, Exp. No.599, Astérisque 105/106, 39-63 (1983; Zbl 0532.30019). They deal with the iterates $$f^ n$$ of $$f: z\to z^ 2+c,$$ where c is a complex parameter, the filled in Julia set $$K(c)=\{z;\quad f^ n(z)$$ is bounded$$\}$$, the Mandelbrojt set (which is connected): $$M=\{c;\quad f^ n(0)$$ is bounded$$\}$$, and $$M_ 1=\{c$$; f has an attractive cycle of some order$$\}$$. Two outstanding conjectures state that I: M is locally connected, II: $$\overset\circ M=M_ 1$$. In this and the second part the author proposes to show that I implies II. Much of the exposition is devoted to the Hubbard tree, a combinatorial scheme which can be constructed in K(c) in the cases when 0 is either a periodic point or the preimage of a periodic point of f.
