On simultaneous linearization

Abstract

Given a uniformly quasiregular mapping, there is typically no reason to assume any relationship between linearizers at different repelling periodic points. However, in the current paper we prove that in the case where the uqr map arises as a solution of a Schroder equation then, with some further natural assumptions, if L is a linearizer at one repelling periodic point, then $$L\circ T$$ is a linearizer at another repelling periodic point, where T is a translation. In this sense we say L simultaneously linearizes f. In the plane, an example would be that $$e^z$$ simultaneously linearizes $$z^2$$ . Our methods utilize generalized derivatives for quasiregular mappings, including a chain rule and inverse derivative formula which may be of independent interest.
