The full renormalization horseshoe for multimodal maps

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the renormalization operator $\mathcal R$ for multimodal maps. We prove the renormalization operator $\mathcal R$ is a self-homeomorphism on any totally $\mathcal R$-invariant set. As a corollary, we prove the existence of the full renormalization horseshoe for multimodal maps.
