Abstract
Let be a projective variety defined over a number field , let be a polarized set of endomorphisms of all defined over , and let . For each prime of , let denote the number of points in the orbit of for the semigroup of maps generated by . Under suitable hypotheses on and , we prove an analytic estimate for and use it to show that the set of primes for which grows subexponentially as a function of is a set of density zero. For we show that this holds for a generic set of maps provided that at least two of the maps in have degree at least four.
