First, for the family Pn,c(z) = zn + c, we show that the geometric limit of the Mandelbrot sets Mn(P) as n → ∞ exists and is the closed unit disk, and that the geometric limit of the Julia sets J(Pn,c) as n tends to infinity is the unit circle, at least when |c| ≠ 1. Then, we establish similar results for some generalizations of this family; namely, the maps z ↦ zt + c for real t ≥ 2 and the rational maps z ↦ zn + c + a/zn.

This chapter surveys dynamical properties of the families fsubscript c,𝜆(z) = zⁿ + c + λ‎/zᵈ for n ≥ 2, d ≥ 1, with c corresponding to the center of a hyperbolic component of the Multibrot set. These rational maps produce a variety of interesting Julia sets, including Sierpinski carpets and Sierpinski gaskets, as well as laminations by Jordan curves. The chapter describes a curious “implosion” of the Julia sets as a polynomial psubscript c = zⁿ + c is perturbed to a rational map fsubscript c,𝜆. In this way the chapter shows yet another way of producing rational maps through “singular” perturbations of complex polynomials.

In this paper, we consider the family of rational maps [Formula: see text] where n ≥ 2, d ≥ 1, and λ ∈ ℂ. We consider the case where λ lies in the main cardioid of one of the n - 1 principal Mandelbrot sets in these families. We show that the Julia sets of these maps are always homeomorphic. However, two such maps Fλ and Fμ are conjugate on these Julia sets only if the parameters at the centers of the given cardioids satisfy μ = νj(d+1)λ or [Formula: see text] where j ∈ ℤ and ν is an (n - 1)th root of unity. We define a dynamical invariant, which we call the minimal rotation number. It determines which of these maps are conjugate on their Julia sets, and we obtain an exact count of the number of distinct conjugacy classes of maps drawn from these main cardioids.
