Renormalization in the Golden-Mean Semi-Siegel Henon Family: Universality and Non-Rigidity


Abstract in English

It was recently shown by Gaidashev and Yampolsky that appropriately defined renormalizations of a sufficiently dissipative golden-mean semi-Siegel Henon map converge super-exponentially fast to a one-dimensional renormalization fixed point. In this paper, we show that the asymptotic two-dimensional form of these renormalizations is universal, and is parameterized by the average Jacobian. This is similar to the limit behavior of period-doubling renormalization in the Henon family considered by de Carvalho, Lyubich and Martens. As an application of our result, we prove that the boundary of the golden-mean Siegel disk of a dissipative Henon map is non-rigid.
