We study the bifurcation values of real polynomial maps $f: \bR^{2n} \to \bR^2$ which reflect the lack of asymptotic regularity at infinity. We formulate real counterparts of some structure results which have been previously proved in case…
We consider Holder continuous linear cocycles over partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. For fiber bunched cocycles with one Lyapunov exponent we show continuity of measurable invariant conformal structures and sub-bundles. Further, we…
The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem says that a general collection of $k$ double points in ${\bf P}^n$ imposes independent conditions on homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ with a well known list of exceptions. We generalize this theorem to…
Let g be a nonconstant rational map from the projective line to itself that has degree greater than one and is defined over a number field. The map g gives rise to generalized Mahler measures for polynomials in one variable. We use…
Consider a finite collection of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^d$. The hyperplanes dissect $\mathbb R^d$ into finitely many polyhedral chambers. For a point $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and a chamber $P$ the metric projection of $x$ onto $P$ is the…
The space of degree d single-variable monic and centered complex polynomial vector fields can be decomposed into loci in which the vector fields have the same topological structure. We analyze the geometric structure of these loci and…
We study the bifurcation loci of quadratic (and unicritical) polynomials and exponential maps. We outline a proof that the exponential bifurcation locus is connected; this is an analog to Douady and Hubbard's celebrated theorem that (the…
For a complete hyperbolic surface whose fundamental group is finitely generated and has critical exponent bigger than 1/2, we obtain an effective equidistribution of closed horocycles in its unit tangent bundle. This extends a result of…
We consider projections of points onto fundamental chambers of finite real reflection groups. Our main result shows that for groups of type $A_n$, $B_n$, and $D_n$, the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of the reflection…
We prove that a generic area-preserving diffeomorphism of a compact surface with non-empty boundary has an equidistributed set of periodic orbits. This implies that such a diffeomorphism has a dense set of periodic points, although we also…
We show that every polynomial of degree $d \geq 2$ in the connectedness locus with an attracting cycle which attracts at least two critical points and no indifferent cycles is not combinatorially rigid. In particular, we prove that a…
We give a combinatorial classification for the class of postcritically fixed Newton maps of polynomials as dynamical systems. This lays the foundation for classification results of more general classes of Newton maps. A fundamental…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and let $X(m,q)$ be the set of symmetric bilinear forms on an $m$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. The partition of $X(m,q)$ induced by the action of the general linear group gives rise to a…
For convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds $\Gamma\backslash \mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ for which the dimension of the limit set satisfies $\delta_\Gamma< n/2$, we show that the high-frequency Eisenstein series associated to a point $\xi$ "at…
A classical result of Erdos and Turan states that if a monic polynomial has small size on the unit circle and its constant coefficient is not too small, then its zeros cluster near the unit circle and become equidistributed in angle. Using…
This note provides the complete factorization of the Misiurewicz-Thurston polynomial $q_{\ell,n}=p_{\ell+n}(z) - p_\ell(z)$ over $\mathbb{C}$, which plays a central role in the study of the Mandelbrot set, where \[ p_0(z) = 0, \qquad…
We prove {\em sign equidistribution} of Legendre polynomials: the ratio between the lengths of the regions in the interval $[-1, 1]$ where the Legendre polynomial assumes positive versus negative values, converges to one as the degree…
We combine effective mixing and Duke's Theorem on closed geodesics on the modular surface to show that certain subcollections of the collection of geodesics with a given discriminant still equidistribute. These subcollections are only…
We consider circles of common centre and increasing radius on a compact hyperbolic surface and, more generally, on its unit tangent bundle. We establish a precise asymptotics for their rate of equidistribution. Our result holds for…
We extend results of Bhagwat and Rajan on a strong multiplicity one property for length spectrum to hyperbolic manifolds with cusps, showing that for two even dimensional hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume, if all but finitely many…
