Limits of rational maps, R-trees and barycentric extension.
2019
In this paper, we show that one can naturally associate a limiting dynamical system $F: T\longrightarrow T$ on an $\R$-tree to any degenerating sequence of rational maps $f_n: \hat\C \longrightarrow \hat\C$ of fixed degree. The construction of $F$ is in $2$ steps: first we use barycentric extension to get $\E f_n : \Hyp^3 \longrightarrow \Hyp^3$; second we take appropriate limit on rescalings of hyperbolic space. An important ingredient we prove here is that the Lipschitz constant depends only on the degree of the rational map. We show that the dynamics of $F$ records the limiting length spectrum of the sequence $f_n$.
