Abstract

The goal of this article is two fold. Firstly, we explore the dynamics of a semigroup of polynomial automorphisms of C2\mathbb{C}^2, generated by a finite collection of H\'enon maps. In particular, we construct the positive and negative dynamical Green's functions GG±G_{\mathscr{G}}^\pm and the corresponding dynamical Green's currents μG±\mu_{\mathscr{G}}^\pm for a semigroup S\mathcal{S}, generated by a collection G.{\mathscr{G}}. Using them, we show that the positive (or negative) Julia set of the semigroup S\mathcal{S}, i.e., JS+\mathcal{J}_{\mathcal{S}}^+ (or JS\mathcal{J}_{\mathcal{S}}^-) is equal to the closure of the union of individual positive (or negative) Julia sets of the maps, in the semigroup S\mathcal{S}. Furthermore, we prove that μG+\mu_{\mathscr{G}}^+ is supported on the whole of JS+\mathcal{J}_{\mathcal{S}}^+ and is also the unique positive closed (1,1)(1,1)-current supported on JS+\mathcal{J}_{\mathcal{S}}^+, satisfying a semi-invariance relation that depends on the generating set G{\mathscr{G}}. Secondly, we study the dynamics of a non-autonomous sequence of H\'{e}non maps, say {hk}\{h_k\}, contained in the semigroup S\mathcal{S}. Similarly, as above, here too, we construct the non-autonomous dynamical positive and negative Green's function and the corresponding dynamical Green's currents. Further, we use the properties of Green's function to conclude that the non-autonomous attracting basin of any such sequence {hk}\{h_k\}, sharing a common attracting fixed point, is biholomorphic to C2.\mathbb{C}^2.
