We compute all dynamical degrees of monomial maps by interpreting them as mixed volumes of polytopes. By exploiting further the isomorphism between the polytope algebra of P. McMullen and the universal cohomology of complete toric…
One studies Cremona monomial maps by combinatorial means. Among the results is a simple integer matrix theoretic proof that the inverse of a Cremona monomial map is also defined by monomials of fixed degree, and moreover, the set of…
Cremona maps defined by monomials of degree 2 are thoroughly analyzed and classified via integer arithmetic and graph combinatorics. In particular, the structure of the inverse map to such a monomial Cremona map is made very explicit as is…
We focus on various dynamical invariants associated to toric correspondences, using algebraic geometry or arithmetic. We find a formula for the dynamical degrees, relate the exponential growth of the degree sequences with a strict…
We use intuitive results from algebraic topology and intersection theory to clarify the pullback action on cohomology by compositions of rational maps. We use these techniques to prove a simple sufficient criterion for functoriality of a…
Given a rational monomial map, we consider the question of finding a toric variety on which it is algebraically stable. We give conditions for when such variety does or does not exist. We also obtain several precise estimates of the degree…
Given a birational map in the three dimensional projective space defined by monomials of degree $d$, we prove that its inverse is defined by monomials of degree at most $d^2-d+1$.
We study the local cohomology modules H^i_B(R) for a reduced monomial ideal B in a polynomial ring R=k[X_1,...,X_n]. We consider a grading on R which is coarser than the Z^n-grading such that each component of H^i_B(R) is finite dimensional…
In this paper, we develop several tools to study the degree growth and stabilization of monomial maps. Using these tools, we can classify semisimple three dimensional monomial maps by their dynamical behavior.
We analyse the dynamics of the pullback of the map $z \longmapsto z^m$ on the complex tori and toric varieties. We will observe that tropical objects naturally appear in the limit, and review several theorems in tropical geometry.
We generalized several results for the arithmetic dynamics of monomial maps, including Silverman's conjectures on height growth, dynamical Mordell-Lang conjecture, and dynamical Manin-Mumford conjecture. These results are originally known…
One defines two ways of constructing rational maps derived from other rational maps, in a characteristic-free context. The first introduces the Newton complementary dual of a rational map. One main result is that this dual preserves…
We describe explicitly the cohomology of the total complex of certain diagrams of invertible sheaves on normal toric varieties. These diagrams, called wheels, arise in the study of toric singularities associated to dimer models. Our main…
Associated to a Thurston map $f: S^2 \to S^2$ with postcritical set $P$ are several different invariants obtained via pullback: a relation on the set of free homotopy classes of curves in $S^2- P$, a linear operator on the free $\R$-module…
The dynamical degrees of a rational map $f:X\dashrightarrow X$ are fundamental invariants describing the rate of growth of the action of iterates of $f$ on the cohomology of $X$. When $f$ has nonempty indeterminacy set, these quantities can…
We introduce a refined version of group cohomology and relate it to the space of polynomials on the group in question. We show that the polynomial cohomology with trivial coefficients admits a description in terms of ordinary cohomology…
A monomial self-map $f$ on a complex toric variety is said to be $k$-stable if the action induced on the $2k$-cohomology is compatible with iteration. We show that under suitable conditions on the eigenvalues of the matrix of exponents of…
We classify all monomial planar Cremona maps by multidegree using recent methods developed by Aluffi. Following the main result, we prove several more properties of the set of these maps, and also extend the results to the more general…
In this paper we address the following question arising from the work of P. Etingof, D. Kazhdan and A. Polishchuk (math.AG/0003009): given a homogeneous complex polynomial, when the rational map defined by its partials is of degree 1? We…
In this paper we use formal group rings to construct an algebraic model of the $T$-equivariant oriented cohomology of smooth toric varieties. Then we compare our model with known results of equivariant cohomology of toric varieties to…
