Abstract:
We will talk about a family of rational maps of P2 (C) or P2 (R) that leaves invariant an elliptic curve. For some values of the parameters, the elliptic curve is an attractor with riddled basins dense, in the Julia set. In fact for some values of the parameters there is a line that is also an attractor with basin dense in the same Julia set.
