Grafting a measured lamination on a hyperbolic surface defines a self-map of Teichmuller space, which is a homeomorphism by a result of Scannell and Wolf. In this paper we study the large-scale behavior of pruning, which is the inverse of…

In this article, we consider a bounded pseudoconvex domain in ${\bf C}^2$ satifying: (a) it admits a proper holomorphic mapping $f$ onto the unit ball $B^2$, and (b) it is simply connected and has a real analytic boundary. According to…

We prove that, if $n\geq 3$, a singular foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on $\mathbb P^n$ which can be written as pull-back, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a foliation in $ {\mathbb P^2}$ of degree $d\geq2$ with one or three invariant lines in general…

In his paper, Thurston shows that a positive real number $h$ is the topological entropy for an ergodic traintrack representative of an outer automorphism of a free group if and only if its expansion constant $\lambda = e^h$ is a weak Perron…

Let $f:\hat{C}\to\hat{C}$ be a subhyperbolic rational map of degree $d$. We construct a set of coding maps $Cod(f)=\{\pi_r:\Sigma\to J\}_r$ of the Julia set $J$ by geometric coding trees, where the parameter $r$ ranges over mappings from a…

While there may be many Thurston metric geodesics between a pair of points in Teichm\"uller space, we find that by imposing an additional energy minimization constraint on the geodesics, thought of as limits of harmonic map rays, we select…

Let $ \B^{n+1} \subset \C^{n+1}$ be the unit ball in a complex Euclidean space, and let $ \Sigma^n = \partial \B^{n+1} = S^{2n+1}$. Let $ f: \Sigma^n \hook \Sigma^{N}$ be a local CR immersion.If $ N-n<2n-1$, the asymptotic vectors of the…

A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…

In this paper, we prove that an expanding Thurston map $f\colon S^2 \rightarrow S^2$ is asymptotically $h$-expansive if and only if it has no periodic critical points, and that no expanding Thurston map is $h$-expansive. As a consequence,…

In complex dynamics, a fundamental result of Fatou and Julia asserts that every attracting cycle of a rational map attracts a critical point. The analogous statement fails in non-Archimedean dynamics. For a non-Archimedean rational map,…

Let $f:\hat{\mathbb C}\to \hat{\mathbb C}$ be a postcritically finite rational map. Let $\mathcal Q(\hat{\mathbb C})$ be the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $ \hat{\mathbb C}$ with simple poles. We study the set of…

Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable Seifert manifold with hyperbolic orbifold $B_M$, and $f_{\pi}: \pi_1(M)\rightarrow\pi_1(M)$ be an automorphism induced by an orientation-reversing homeomorphism $f$ of $M$. We give a bound on the…

We investigate the dynamical behaviour of a holomorphic map on a $f-$invariant subset $\mathcal{C}$ of $U,$ where $f:U \to \mathbb{C}^k.$ We study two cases: when $U$ is an open, connected and polynomially convex subset of $\mathbb{C}^k$…

Let $\gamma$ be an automorphism of a polarized complex projective manifold $(M,L)$. Then $\gamma$ induces an automorphism $\gamma_k$ of the space of global holomorphic sections of the $k$-th tensor power of $L$, for every $k=1,2,...$; for…

In the context of tvs-cone metric spaces, we prove a Bishop-Phelps and a Caristi's type theorem. These results allow us to prove a fixed point theorem for $(\delta, L)$-weak contraction according to a pseudo Hausdorff metric defined by…

In this paper we show that every homeomorphism of the plane with the topological shadowing property has a fixed point. Also, we show that a linear isomorphism of an Euclidean space has the topological shadowing property if and only if the…

We give sharp conditions on a local biholomorphism $F:X \to \mathbb C^{n}$ which ensure global injectivity. For $n \geq 2$, such a map is injective if for each complex line $l \subset \mathbb C^{n}$, the pre-image $F^{-1}(l)$ embeds…

We extend to binary relational systems the notion of compact and normal structure, introduced by J.P.Penot for metric spaces, and we prove that for the involutive and reflexive ones, every commuting family of relational homomorphisms has a…

We prove that if $T: X \to X$ is a selfmap of a set $X$ such that $\bigcap \{T^{n}X: n\in N}\}$ is a one-point set, then the set $X$ can be endowed with a compact Hausdorff topology so that $T$ is continuous.

An orientation-preserving branched covering $f: S^2 \to S^2$ is a nearly Euclidean Thurston (NET) map if each critical point is simple and its postcritical set has exactly four points. Inspired by classical, non-dynamical notions such as…
