Abstract:

This paper deals with strange attractors of S-unimodal maps $f$. It generalizes earlier results in the sense that very general topological conditions are given that either

  1. [i)] guarantee the existence of an absorbing Cantor set provided the critical point of $f$ is sufficiently degenerate, or

  2. [ii)] prohibit the existence of an absorbing Cantor set altogether.

As a by-product we obtain very weak topological conditions that imply the existence of an absolutely continuous invariant probability measure for $f$.
