Basilica group is :[1]

  • group defined by automatum
  • the iterated monodromy group of the polynomial [2]
  • related with Basilica Julia set : "the scaling limit of the Schreier graphs of its action on level n of T is the basilica"[3]

Computation

The critical points of the polynomial are and .

The postcritical set is

FR

predefined by FR package of GAP CAS. Here BinaryKneadingGroup("1") is BasilicaGroup.

gap> BinaryKneadingGroup(1/3)=BasilicaGroup;
true

or :

gap> B := FRGroup("a=<1,b>(1,2)","b=<1,a>",IsFRMealyElement);
<state-closed group over [ 1, 2 ] with 2 generators>
gap> AssignGeneratorVariables(B);
#I  Assigned the global variables [ "a", "b" ]
gap> B=BasilicaGroup;
