%0 Journal Article %T Satellite renormalization of quadratic polynomials %A Davoud Cheraghi %A Mitsuhiro Shishikura %J Mathematics %D 2015 %I arXiv %X We prove the uniform hyperbolicity of the near-parabolic renormalization operators acting on an infinite-dimensional space of holomorphic transformations. This implies the universality of the scaling laws, conjectured by physicists in the 70's, for a combinatorial class of bifurcations. Through near-parabolic renormalizations the polynomial-like renormalizations of satellite type are successfully studied here for the first time, and new techniques are introduced to analyze the fine-scale dynamical features of maps with such infinite renormalization structures. In particular, we confirm the rigidity conjecture under a quadratic growth condition on the combinatorics. The class of maps addressed in the paper includes infinitely-renormalizable maps with degenerating geometries at small scales (lack of a priori bounds). %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1509.07843v1
