Periodic points, linearizing maps, and the dynamical Mordell-Lang problem

Number Theory 2008-05-13 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We prove a dynamical version of the Mordell-Lang conjecture for subvarieties of quasiprojective varieties X, endowed with the action of a morphism f:X --> X. We use an analytic method based on the technique of Skolem, Mahler, and Lech, along with results of Herman and Yoccoz from nonarchimedean dynamics.
