In this work we present a sistematic exposition of a result due to R. Maiíé and L. Rocha, who proved that the Julia set of a rational map of the Riemann sphere is uniíormly perfect. We start with necessary basic concepts and dose with a proof of a result of C. Pommerenke which allows us to condude the Dirichlet regularity of the Julia set.

Obtemos uma cadeia de Markov cujo estados são o conjunto dos inteiros não-negativos. Estudamos propriedades probabilísticas dessa cadeia, como transiência e recorrência. Mostramos também que o espectro associado a essa cadeia de Markov está relacionado ao conjunto de Julia fibrado de uma classe de endomorfismos em C 2. Além disso, estudamos propriedades dinâmicas e topológicas de uma classe de endomorfismos de C 2 (ou R 2). Precisamente, as aplicações consideradas são fn(x, y) = ( x y+ cn, x), onde cn E2 C (ou cn E R), para todo n>0. / In this work we define a stochastic adding machine associated to the Fibonacci baseand to a probabilities sequence (Pi) i>1. We obtain a Markov chain whose states are the set of nonnegative integers. We study probabilistic properties of this chain, such as transience and recurrence. We also prove that the spectrum associated to this Markov chain is connected to the filled Julia sets for a class of endomorphisms in C 2. Furthermore, we study topological and dynamical properties of a class of endomorphisms of C 2 (or R 2). Precisely, the considered maps are fn(x, y) = (x y + cn, x), where cn 2 C (or cn E R), for all n>0.
