Discontinuity of Straightening in Anti-holomorphic Dynamics: I
  It is well known that baby Mandelbrot sets are homeomorphic to the original one. We study baby Tricorns appearing in the Tricorn, which is the connectedness locus of quadratic anti-holomorphic polynomials, and show that the dynamically natural straightening map from a baby Tricorn to the original Tricorn is discontinuous at infinitely many explicit parameters. This is the first known example of discontinuity of straightening maps on a real two-dimensional slice of an analytic family of holomorphic polynomials. The proof of discontinuity is carried out by showing that all non-real umbilical cords of the Tricorn wiggle, which settles a conjecture made by various people including Hubbard, Milnor, and Schleicher.
