Basins of attraction for a quadratic coquaternionic map

In this paper we consider the extension, to the algebra of coquaternions, of a complex quadratic map with a real super-attractive 8-cycle. We establish that, in addition to the real cycle, this new map has sets of non-isolated periodic points of period 8, forming four attractive 8-cycles. Here , the...

Description
Summary:In this paper we consider the extension, to the algebra of coquaternions, of a complex quadratic map with a real super-attractive 8-cycle. We establish that, in addition to the real cycle, this new map has sets of non-isolated periodic points of period 8, forming four attractive 8-cycles. Here , the cycles are to be interpreted as cycles of sets and an appropriate notion of attractivity is used. Some characteristics of the basins of attraction of the five attracting 8-cycles are discussed and plots revealing the intertwined nature of these basins are shown.
