This paper studies homeomorphisms of the closed annulus that are isotopic to the identity from the viewpoint of rotation theory, using a newly developed forcing theory for surface homeomorphisms. Our first result is a solution to the so…

An orientation-preserving recurrent homeomorphism of the two-sphere which is not the identity is shown to admit exactly two fixed points. A recurrent homeomorphism of a compact surface with negative Euler characteristic is periodic.

Let $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R^2$ be a domain and let $f\in W^{1,1}(\Omega,\mathbb R^2)$ be a homeomorphism (between $\Omega$ and $f(\Omega)$). Then there exists a sequence of smooth diffeomorphisms $f_k$ converging to $f$ in…

We study the fixed point sets of holomorphic self-maps of a bounded domain in ${\Bbb C}^n$. Specifically we investigate the least number of fixed points in general position in the domain that forces any automorphism (or endomorphism) to be…

We study locally flat, compact, oriented surfaces in $4$-manifolds whose exteriors have infinite cyclic fundamental group. We give algebraic topological criteria for two such surfaces, with the same genus $g$, to be related by an ambient…

We prove that Axiom A is open and dense in the space of $C^1$ area contracting orientation-preserving embeddings on compact orientable surfaces with boundary. This settles the area contracting version of the {\em Smale's conjecture}…

We give a short, mostly elementary and self-contained proof of the classical result that the groups of diffeomorphisms, homeomorphisms, and homotopy equivalences of a surface have the same group of connected components.

This paper belongs to a series of papers devoted to the study of the structure of the non-wandering set of an A-diffeomorphism. We study such set $NW(f)$ for an $\Omega$-stable diffeomorphism $f$, given on a closed connected 3-manifold…

We show that every $L$-BLD-mapping in a domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a local homeomorphism if $L < \sqrt{2}$ or $K_I(f) < 2$. These bounds are sharp as shown by a winding map.

If F is an automorphism of the spectral unit ball, we show that, in a neighborhood of any cyclic (i.e. non-derogatory) matrix of the ball, the map F can be written as conjugation by a holomorphically varying non singular matrix. This…

Given $n$ distinct points $\mathbf{x}_1, \ldots, \mathbf{x}_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, let $K$ denote their convex hull, which we assume to be $d$-dimensional, and $B = \partial K $ its $(d-1)$-dimensional boundary. We construct an explicit…

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 prove a theorem on structural stability of smooth attractor-repellor endomorphisms of compact manifolds, with singularities. By attractor-repellor, we mean that the non-wandering set of the dynamics $f$ is the disjoint union of a…

We prove that a homeomorphism f of a compact metric space X satisfies the L-shadowing property if and only if its induced hyperspace homeomorphism also satisfies the L-shadowing property. In the proof, assuming only the L-shadowing…

We consider invertible linear maps with additive spherical bounded noise. We show that minimal attractors of such random dynamical systems are unique, strictly convex and have a continuously differentiable boundary. Moreover, we present an…

The attracting set and the inverse limit set are important objects associated to a self-map on a set. We call \emph{stable set} of the self-map the projection of the inverse limit set. It is included in the attracting set, but is not equal…

We investigate the consequences of fluid flowing on a continuous surface upon the geometric and statistical distribution of the flow. We find that the ability of a surface to collect water by its mere geometrical shape is proportional to…

We show that for a compact surface without boundary $M$ the set of cw-expansive homeomorphisms is dense in the set of all the homeomorphisms of $M$ with respect to the $C^0$ topology. After this we show that for a generic homeomorphism $f$…

Little is known about the global structure of the basins of attraction of Newton's method in two or more complex variables. We make the first steps by focusing on the specific Newton mapping to solve for the common roots of $P(x,y) =…

We prove (and improve) the Muir-Suffridge conjecture for holomorphic convex maps. Namely, let $F:\mathbb B^n\to \mathbb C^n$ be a univalent map from the unit ball whose image $D$ is convex. Let $\mathcal S\subset \partial \mathbb B^n$ be…
