Given a field $K$, a rational function $\phi \in K(x)$, and a point $b \in \mathbb{P}^1(K)$, we study the extension $K(\phi^{-\infty}(b))$ generated by the union over $n$ of all solutions to $\phi^n(x) = b$, where $\phi^n$ is the $n$th…

In this paper we prove that for topologically mixing metric Anosov flows their equilibrium states corresponding to H\"older potentials satisfy a strong rigidity property: they are determined only by their disintegrations on (strong) stable…

Let ${\cal H}$ be a hyperbolic component of quadratic rational maps possessing two distinct attracting cycles. We show that ${\cal H}$ has compact closure in moduli space if and only if neither attractor is a fixed point.

Let $\mathbbm{P}^{1,an}$ be the Berkovich projective line over a complete, algebraically closed, non-Archimedean field. Let $\phi$ be a degree $\geq 2$ rational map with potential good reduction, acting on $\mathbbm{P}^{1,an}$. In this…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous map on a compact metric space with finite topological entropy. Further, we assume that the entropy map $\mu\mapsto h_\mu(f)$ is upper semi-continuous. It is well-known that this implies the continuity of the…

We prove the existence of equilibrium states for geometric potentials in a class of piecewise weakly convex interval maps. This class includes systems with indifferent fixed points and non-Markov partitions. Under additional hypotheses we…

A construction is given of Markov partitions for some rational maps, which persist over regions of parameter space, not confined to single hyperbolic components. The set on which the Markov partition exists, and its boundary, are analysed.

In the context of continuous zooming systems $f:M \to M$ on a compact metric space $M$, which include the non-uniformly expanding ones, possibly with the presence of a critical set, with the zooming set dense in $M$, we prove that any…

Compact locally maximal hyperbolic sets are studied via geometrically defined functional spaces that take advantage of the smoothness of the map in a neighborhood of the hyperbolic set. This provides a self-contained theory that not only…

Arguably one can use a canonical scalar field $\varphi$, minimally coupled to gravity, with quadratic potentials $V = \Lambda \pm \frac12 m^2\varphi^2$ to explore some general features of slow-roll and hilltop thawing quintessence,…

We consider the problem of equivalence of Gibbs states and equilibrium states for continuous potentials on full shift spaces $E^{\mathbb{Z}}$. Sinai, Bowen, Ruelle and others established equivalence under various assumptions on the…

Asymptotic behavior of energy of a harmonic map defined on an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold is considered. Using the growth of energy, we show that a harmonic map defined on some asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds has to be constant…

In a context of non-uniformly expanding maps, possibly with the presence of a critical set, we prove the existence of finitely many ergodic equilibrium states for hyperbolic potentials. Moreover, the equilibrium states are expanding…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemmanian manifold with non-empty boundary. Consider the second order hyperbolic initial-boundary value problem (\delta_t^2 + P(x,D))u = 0 in (0,T) x M, u(0,x) = \delta_t u(0,x) = 0 for x in M, u(t,x) = f(t,x) on…

We show some level-2 large deviation principles for real and complex one-dimensional maps satisfying a weak form of hyperbolicity. More precisely, we prove a large deviation principle for the distribution of iterated preimages, periodic…

It is known that all uniformly expanding dynamics $f: M \rightarrow M$ have no phase transition with respect to a H\"older continuous potential $\phi : M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, in other words, the topological pressure function $\mathbb{R}…

We revisit the dynamics of a nonminimally coupled scalar field model in case of $F(\phi)R$ coupling with $F(\phi)= 1-\xi\phi^2 $, and the potentials $V(\phi) = V_0 (1+ \phi^p)^2$, $V(\phi)= V_0 e^{\lambda \phi^2}$. We use an autonomous…

Let $\varphi:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q)\to\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q)$ be a rational map of degree $d>1$ on a fixed finite field. We give asymptotic formulas for the size of image sets $\varphi^n(\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q))$ as a function of…

We study $p$-energy functionals on infinite locally summable graphs for $p\in (1,\infty)$ and show that many well-known characterizations for a parabolic space are also true in this discrete, non-local and non-linear setting. Among the…

Using an approach due to Bowen, Franco showed that continuous expansive flows with specification have unique equilibrium states for potentials with the Bowen property. We show that this conclusion remains true using weaker non-uniform…
