Abstract

We consider the McMullen maps $f_{\unicode{x3bb} }(z)=z^{n}+\unicode{x3bb} z^{-n}$ with $\unicode{x3bb} \in \mathbb {C}^{*}$ and $n \geq 3$. We prove that the closures of escape hyperbolic components are pairwise disjoint and the boundaries of all bounded escape components (the McMullen domain and Sierpiński holes) are quasi-circles with Hausdorff dimension strictly between $1$ and $2$.
