Corrigendum to “Typical dynamics of Newton's method” [Topol. Appl. 318 (2022) 108201]

Let C1(M) be the space of continuously differentiable real-valued functions defined on [−M,M]. Here, we address an irremediable flaw found in [4], and show that for the typical element f in C1(M), there exists a set S⊆[−M,M], both residual and of full measure in [−M,M], such that for any x∈S, the tr...

Summary:Let C1(M) be the space of continuously differentiable real-valued functions defined on [−M,M]. Here, we address an irremediable flaw found in [4], and show that for the typical element f in C1(M), there exists a set S⊆[−M,M], both residual and of full measure in [−M,M], such that for any x∈S, the trajectory generated by Newton's method using f and x either diverges, converges to a root of f, or generates a Cantor set as its attractor. Whenever the Cantor set is the attractor, the dynamics on the attractor are described by a single type of adding machine, so that the dynamics on all of these attracting Cantor sets are topologically equivalent.
