Abstract

In complex dynamics, we construct a so-called nice set (one for which the first return map is Markov) around any point which is in the Julia set but not in the post-singular set, adapting a construction of Rivera–Letelier. This simplifies the study of absolutely continuous invariant measures. We prove a converse to a recent theorem of Kotus and Świątek, so for a certain class of meromorphic maps the absolutely continuous invariant measure is finite if and only if an integrability condition is satisfied.
