The Fatou Set for Critically Finite Maps

Abstract

It is a classical result in complex dynamics of one variable that the Fatou set for a critically finite map on $\mathbf{P}^1$ consists of only basins of attraction for superattracting periodic points. In this paper we deal with critically finite maps on $\mathbf{P}^k$. We show that the Fatou set for a critically finite map on $\mathbf{P}^2$ consists of only basins of attraction for superattracting periodic points. We also show that the Fatou set for a $k-$critically finite map on $\mathbf{P}^k$ is empty.
