Abstract

For functions meromorphic in the plane, apart from an exceptional case, the Julia set J is the closure of the set of all preimages of poles. The repelling periodic cycles are dense in J. In contrast with the case of transcendental entire functions, J may be a subset of a straight line and general classes of functions for which this is the case can be determined. J may also lie on a quasicircle through infinity which is not a straight line.
