Tube-log Riemann Surfaces


Tube-log Riemann surfaces were discovered 10 years ago. These are Riemann surfaces build by cylinders and planes pasted in a similar way to the Riemann surface of the logarithm. They are the main tool in a series of constructions in holomorphic dynamics, providing examples or counter-examples answering a series of old questions. Most answers went against popular beliefs.
