Hausdorff dimension of Julia sets of unicritical correspondences

Abstract

We show that if $\beta>1$ is a rational number and the Julia set $J$ of the holomorphic correspondence $z^{\beta}+c$ is a locally eventually onto hyperbolic repeller, then the Hausdorff dimension of $J$ is bounded from above by the zero of the associated pressure function. As a consequence, we conclude that the Julia set of the correspondence has zero Lebesgue measure for parameters close to zero, whenever $q^2<p$ and $\beta=p/q$ in lowest terms.
