Abstract

In 1977 Hubbard developed the ideas of Cayley (1879) and solved in particular the Newton-Fourier imaginary problem. We solve the Newton-Fourier and the Chebyshev-Fourier imaginary problems completely. It is known that the application of Julia set theory is possible to the one-dot numerical method like the Newton's method for computing solution of the nonlinear equations. The secants method is the two-dots numerical method and the application of Julia set theory to it is not demonstrated. Previously we have defined two one-dot combinations: the Newton's-secants and the Chebyshev's-secants methods and have used the escape time algorithm to analyse the application of Julia set theory to these two combinations in some special cases. We consider and solve the Newton's-secants and Tchebicheff's-secants imaginary problems completely.
