Sommario/riassunto

This book is devoted to the structure of the Mandelbrot set - a remarkable and important feature of modern theoretical physics, related to chaos and fractals and simultaneously to analytical functions, Riemann surfaces, phase transitions and string theory. The Mandelbrot set is one of the bridges connecting the world of chaos and order.  The authors restrict consideration to <i>discrete</i> dynamics <i>of a single variable</i>. This restriction preserves the most essential properties of the subject, but drastically simplifies computer simulations and the mathematical formalism.  The coverage
