This paper is concerned about the orbit equivalence types of $C^\infty$ diffeomorphisms of $S^1$ seen as nonsingular automorphisms of $(S^1,m)$, where $m$ is the Lebesgue measure. Given any Liouville number $\alpha$, it is shown that each…

We consider groups of orientation-preserving real analytic diffeomorphisms of the circle which have a finite image under the rotation number function. We show that if such a group is nondiscrete with respect to the $C^1$-topology then it…

We prove that any two $C^3$ critical circle maps with the same irrational rotation number of bounded type and the same odd criticality are conjugate to each other by a $C^{1+\alpha}$ circle diffeomorphism, for some universal $\alpha>0$.

Let $d\geq 2$ be an integer and let $\omega_1,\cdots ,\omega_d$ be moduli of continuity in a specified class which contains the moduli of H\"{o}lder continuity. Let $f_k$, $k\in\{1,\cdots,d\}$, be $C^{1+\omega_k}$ orientation preserving…

We prove that any two $C^4$ critical circle maps with the same irrational rotation number and the same odd criticality are conjugate to each other by a $C^1$ circle diffeomorphism. The conjugacy is $C^{1+\alpha}$ for Lebesgue almost every…

We construct, for each irrational number $\alpha$, a minimal $C^1$-diffeomorphism of the circle with rotation number $\alpha$ which admits a measur

We consider the rotation number $\rho(t)$ of a diffeomorphism $f_t=R_t\circ f$, where $R_t$ is the rotation by $t$ and $f$ is an orientation preserving $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism of the circle $S^1$. We shall show that if $\rho(t)$ is…

For a continuous map on a topological graph containing a loop $S$ it is possible to define the degree (with respect to the loop $S$) and, for a map of degree $1$, rotation numbers. We study the rotation set of these maps and the periods of…

For a function from the unit interval to itself with constant slope and one discontinuity, the itineraries of the point of discontinuity are called the critical itineraries. These critical itineraries play a significant role in the study of…

We consider a one parameter family of dynamical systems W :[0, 1] -> [0, 1] constructed from a pair of monotone increasing diffeomorphisms Wsub(i), such that Wsub(i)(inverse): [0, 1] -> [0, 1], (i = 0, 1). We characterise the set of…

A discrete rotation algorithm can be apprehended as a parametric application $f\_\alpha$ from $\ZZ[i]$ to $\ZZ[i]$, whose resulting permutation ``looks like'' the map induced by an Euclidean rotation. For this kind of algorithm, to be…

We study the set of periods of degree 1 continuous maps from sigma into itself, where sigma denotes the space shaped like the letter sigma (i.e., a segment attached to a circle by one of its endpoints). Since the maps under consideration…

We apply set-valued numerical methods to compute an accurate enclosure of the rotation number. The described algorithm is supplemented with a method of proving the existence of periodic points, which is used to check the rationality of the…

We prove that two $C^r$ critical circle maps with the same rotation number of bounded type are $C^{1+\alpha}$ conjugate for some $\alpha>0$ provided their successive renormalizations converge together at an exponential rate in the $C^0$…

Let $K$ be a number field and $S$ a finite set of places of $K$ that contains all of the archimedean places. Let $\varphi: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a rational map of degree $d \geq 2$ defined over $K$. Given $\alpha \in…

This paper endeavors to track the trajectories of individual horocycles on \modsurf. It is far more common to study \emph{sets} of such trajectories, seeking some asymptotic behavior using an averaging process (see section \ref{previous}).…

We introduce a renormalization procedure which allows us to study in a unified and concise way different properties of the irrational rotations on the unit circle $\beta \mapsto \set{\alpha+\beta}$, $\alpha \in \R\setminus \Q$. In…

For a continuous map on a topological graph containing a unique loop S it is possible to define the degree and, for a map of degree 1, rotation numbers. It is known that the set of rotation numbers of points in S is a compact interval and…

These largely expository notes describe the properties of the function ${\cal R}$ which assigns a number to a $4$-tuple of distinct fixed points of an orientation preserving homeomorphism or diffeomorphism of $S^2$.

We study a certain class circle maps which are constant on one interval (called flat piece), and such that the degrees of the singularities at the boundary of the flat piece are different. In this paper, we show that if the topological…
