Abstract

In this paper, we consider a rational map f of degree at least two acting on Riemman sphere that is expanding away from critical points. Assuming that all critical points of f in the Julia set J(f) are reluctantly recurrent, we prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set J(f) is equal to the hyperbolic dimension, and the Lebesgue measure of Julia set is zero when the Julia set J(f).
