Abstract

We prove that the set of all endpoints of the Julia set of $f(z)=\exp\!(z)-1$ which escape to infinity under iteration of f is not homeomorphic to the rational Hilbert space $\mathfrak E$ . As a corollary, we show that the set of all points $z\in \mathbb C$ whose orbits either escape to $\infty$ or attract to 0 is path-connected. We extend these results to many other functions in the exponential family.
