Playing with the critical point. An experiment with the Mandelbrot set connectivity

Abstract

By means of a graphical journey across the Mandelbrot set for the classic quadratic iterator $f(z):z^2+q$, we illustrate how connectivity breaks as the seed $z_0$ is no longer at the critical point of $f(z)$. Finally we suggest an attack to the MLC conjecture.
