A hundred years of transcendental dynamics

Complex dynamics concerns the iteration of analytic functions of the complex plane; for each function, the plane is partitioned into the Julia set, where the iterates are chaotic, and the Fatou set, where the iterates are stable. These sets are named after the founders of the subject, Fatou and Julia. Transcendental dynamics is concerned with the iteration of analytic functions that are not rational, and was initiated by Fatou in a seminal paper completed in 1925 and published in Acta Mathematica in 1926. We explore the highlights as the subject has developed internationally over the last century, from fundamental work of Baker answering many of Fatou’s major questions, through to current breakthroughs, with researchers in the UK continuing to play a leading role
