Abstract
In this article, we study the dynamics of the following family of rational maps with one parameter:
where \(n\ge 3\) and \(\lambda \in \mathbb {C}^*\). This family of rational maps can be viewed as a singular perturbations of the simple polynomial \(P_n(z)=z^n\). We give a characterization of the topological properties of the Julia sets of the family \(f_\lambda \) according to the dynamical behaviors of the orbits of the free critical points.

Notes
The number \(\sqrt{6}/9\) in this inequality will be used in the construction of an example in next section.
Although U and V are not domains in \(\mathbb {C}\), one can use a coordinate transformation to obtain a polynomial-like mapping since as a rational map, \(f_\lambda \) is holomorphic on whole \(\widehat{\mathbb {C}}\).
