This shows that the converse of the main theorem in [11] does not hold. In interval dynamics, we show that the Collet-Eckmann property for recurrent critical orbits is not a topological invariant for real polynomials with negative Schwarzian derivative. This contradicts a conjecture of Swiatek [22].49 pages, 2 figuresDynamical Systems37D25 (Primary) 37E05, 37F10, 37G15, 37B10 (Secondary)Two counterexamples in rational and interval dynamicstext
