Herman ring

The Julia set of the cubic rational function eitz2(z−4)/(1−4z) with t=.6151732... chosen so that the rotation number is (5−1)/2, which has a Herman ring (shaded).

In the mathematical discipline known as complex dynamics, the Herman ring is a Fatou component[1] where the rational function is conformally conjugate to an irrational rotation of the standard annulus.
