Abstract

Laminations have proved useful in proving facts about polynomial Julia sets. In this thesis, a process by which to construct laminations for certain exponential Julia sets will be presented. This thesis will consider those exponential Julia sets where hairs are identified at a single repelling fixed point, as opposed to multiple repelling fixed points or repelling periodic points. This construction will make use of known facts about the complex exponential function and an itinerary system similar to those used in polynomial laminations.
