Bifurcation locus
In complex dynamics, the bifurcation locus of a family of holomorphic functions informally is a locus of those maps for which the dynamical behavior changes drastically under a small perturbation of the parameter. Thus the bifurcation locus can be thought of as an analog of the Julia set in parameter space. Without doubt, the most famous example of a bifurcation locus is the boundary of the Mandelbrot set.
Parameters in the complement of the bifurcation locus are called J-stable.
