Fatou Components of Attracting Skew-Products.

We investigate the existence of wandering Fatou components for polynomial skew-products in two complex variables. In 2004, the non-existence of wandering domains near a super-attracting invariant fiber was shown in Lilov (Fatou theory in two dimensions, PhD thesis, University of Michigan, 2004). In 2014, it was shown in Astorg et al. (Ann Math, arXiv:1411.1188 [math.DS], 2014) that wandering domains can exist near a parabolic invariant fiber. In Peters and Vivas (Math Z, arXiv:1408.0498, 2014), the geometrically attracting case was studied, and we continue this study here. We prove the non-existence of wandering domains for subhyperbolic attracting skew-products; this class contains the maps studied in Peters and Vivas (Math Z, arXiv:1408.0498, 2014). Using expansion properties on the Julia set in the invariant fiber, we prove bounds on the rate of escape of critical orbits in almost all fibers. Our main tool in describing these critical orbits is a possibly singular linearization map of unstable manifolds.
