Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…

In this paper we consider maps on the plane which are similar to quadratic maps in that they are degree 2 branched covers of the plane. In fact, consider for $\alpha$ fixed, maps $f_c$ which have the following form (in polar coordinates):…

A discrete dynamical system known as Arnold's Discrete Cat Map (Arnold's DCM) is given by (x_t+1, y_t+1) = (x_t + y_t, x_t + 2y_t) mod N; which acts on a two-dimensional square coordinate grid of size Nx?N. The defining characteristic of…

We consider the set of all 2-step recurrences (difference equations) that are given by linear fractional maps. These give birational maps of the plane. We determine the degree growth of these birational maps. We find the all the maps in…

Many problems in physics, chemistry and other fields are perturbative in nature, i.e. differ only slightly from related problems with known solutions. Prominent among these is the eigenvalue perturbation problem, wherein one seeks the…

Many growth processes lead to intriguing stochastic patterns and complex fractal structures which exhibit local scale invariance properties. Such structures can often be described effectively by space-time trajectories of interacting…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and let $A$ be a finitely generated $k$-algebra that is a domain whose Gelfand-Kirillov dimension is in $[2,3)$. We show that if $A$ has a nonzero locally nilpotent derivation…

Let A^2 be the affine plane over a field K of characteristic 0. Birational morphisms of A^2 are mappings A^2 \to A^2 given by polynomial mappings \phi of the polynomial algebra K[x,y] such that for the quotient fields, one has K(\phi(x),…

The number of topologically different plane real algebraic curves of a given degree $d$ has the form $\exp(C d^2 + o(d^2))$. We determine the best available upper bound for the constant $C$. This bound follows from Arnold inequalities on…

Bedford asked if there exists a birational self map $f$ of the complex projective plane such that for any automorphism $A$ of the complex projective plane $A\circ f$ is not conjugate to an automorphism. Blanc gave such a $f$ of degree $6$…

The dynamical degree of a dominant rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^N\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ is the quantity $\delta(f):=\lim(\text{deg} f^n)^{1/n}$. We study the variation of dynamical degrees in 1-parameter families of maps $f_T$. We make a…

We analytically extend the 5D Myers-Perry metric through the event and Cauchy horizons by defining Eddington-Finkelstein-type coordinates. Then, we use the orthonormal frame formalism to formulate and perform separation of variables on the…

Let $\mathbb{D}$ denote the unit disc in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ and let $\mathbb{D}^2 = \mathbb{D} \times \mathbb{D}$ be the unit bidisc in $\mathbb{C}^2$. Let $(T_1, T_2)$ be a pair of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space…

We introduce a framework on dual complexes for studying Arnold-type invariants of immersed curves and immersed surfaces via local finite-difference structures associated with Alexander numberings. For generic immersed plane curves and…

This article studies the sequence of iterative degrees of a birational map of the plane. This sequence is known either to be bounded or to have a linear, quadratic or exponential growth. The classification elements of infinite order with a…

We get three basic results in algebraic dynamics: (1). We give the first algorithm to compute the dynamical degrees to arbitrary precision. (2). We prove that for a family of dominant rational self-maps, the dynamical degrees are lower…

For any exact twist map $f$ and any cohomology class $c\in\mathbb{R}$, let $u_c$ be any associated discrete weak K.A.M. solution, and we introduce an inherent Lipschitz dynamics $\Sigma_+$ given by the discrete forward Lax-Oleinik…

A particular case of a causal set is considered that is a directed dyadic acyclic graph. This is a model of a discrete pregeometry on a microscopic scale. The dynamics is a stochastic sequential growth of the graph. New vertexes of the…
