Abstract

We analyze parametrized families of multimodal 1D maps that arise as singular limits of parametrized families of rank one maps. For a generic 1-parameter family of such maps that contains a Misiurewicz-like map, it has been shown that in a neighborhood of the Misiurewicz-like parameter, a subset of parameters of positive Lebesgue measure exhibits nonuniformly expanding dynamics characterized by the existence of a positive Lyapunov exponent and an absolutely continuous invariant measure. Under a mild combinatoric assumption, we prove that each such parameter is an accumulation point of the set of parameters admitting superstable periodic sinks.
