“…These two maps, characterized by a decreasing jump and an increasing jump, respectively, have been recently studied in [7] where an analysis of the socalled "principal tongues" ( [28], [29], [30], [12], [13], [4], [1], [2]) or "tongues of first degree" (Leonov,[26], [27], Mira [31], [32]) is provided. We recall that the principal tongues are regions, in the parameters' space, where a periodic cycle of period k exists, with one periodic point on a side of the discontinuity point and the remaining (k − 1) points on the other side (for any integer k > 1).…”
