Abstract
Using a family of higher degree polynomials as a bridge, together
with complex surgery techniques, we construct a homeomorphism
between any two limbs of the Mandelbrot set of equal denominator.
Induced by these homeomorphisms and complex conjugation, we obtain
an involution between each limb and itself. whose fixed points
form a topological arc. All these maps have counterparts at the
combinatorial level relating corresponding external arguments.
Assuming local connectivity of the Mandelbrot set we may conclude
that the constructed homeomorphisms between limbs are compatible
with the embeddings of the limbs in the plane. As usual we plough
in the dynamical planes and harvest in the parameter space.
