Abstract

The issue of whether an analytic function has wandering domains has long been of interest in complex dynamics. Sullivan proved in 1985 that rational maps do not have wandering domains. On the other hand, several transcendental entire functions have wandering domains. Using recent results on the relationship between Fatou components and the postsingular set, we find a new family of transcendental entire functions that does not have wandering domains. We also prove that the Julia set of a certain subfamily is the whole plane.
