Abstract

A method for constructing the general M (Mandelbrot) set of a non-analytic mapping is presented. The equivariant mapping with symmetry of the modular group is considered as an illustration. By investigating the distribution of attractors in the upper half-plane and the assignment of colors to each attractor, an algorithm is presented for the construction of filled-in Julia sets with 2- or 3-color symmetry. Such Julia sets not only reveal the characteristics of a system, but also have high artistic appeal.
