The dynamical degree of a dominant rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^N\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ is the quantity $\delta(f):=\lim(\text{deg} f^n)^{1/n}$. We study the variation of dynamical degrees in 1-parameter families of maps $f_T$. We make a…

We prove the first polynomial bound on the number of monotonic homotopy moves required to tighten a collection of closed curves on any compact orientable surface, where the number of crossings in the curve is not allowed to increase at any…

Let {f_t} be any algebraic family of rational maps of a fixed degree, with a marked critical point c(t). We first prove that the hypersurfaces of parameters for which c(t) is periodic converge as a sequence of positive closed (1,1) currents…

Let $f$ be a polynomial in the free algebra over a field $K$, and let $A$ be a $K$-algebra. We denote by $\S_A(f)$, $\A_A(f)$ and $\I_A(f)$, respectively, the `verbal' subspace, subalgebra, and ideal, in $A$, generated by the set of all…

For a pair of quadratic forms with rational coefficients in at least $10$ variables, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of common zeros under the assumption that the two forms determine a projective variety with exactly two…

We study the distribution of periodic points for a wide class of maps, namely entire transcendental functions of finite order and with bounded set of singular values, or compositions thereof. Fix $p\in\N$ and assume that all dynamic rays…

Explicit formulas are obtained for the number of periodic points and maximum tail length of split polynomial maps over finite fields for affine and projective space. This work includes a detailed analysis of the structure of the directed…

Let $\mathbb{P}= \{P_1, \cdots, P_{k}\in \mathbb{R}[y]\}$ be a collection of polynomials with distinct degrees and zero constant terms. We proved that there exists $\epsilon=\epsilon(\mathbb{P})>0$ such that, for any compact set $E \subset…

We propose an algorithm based on Newton's method and subdivision for finding all zeros of a polynomial system in a bounded region of the plane. This algorithm can be used to find the intersections between a line and a surface, which has…

Let $d$ and $n$ be natural numbers. Let $\nu_{d,n}: \mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N}$ denote the Veronese embedding with $N=N_{n,d}:=\binom{n+d-1}{d}$, defined by listing all the monomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables using the…

This note presents a procedure of constructing a higher dimensional sphere map from a lower dimensional one and gives an explicit formula for smooth sphere map with a given degree. As an application a new proof of a generalized…

In this article, we present a landing theorem for periodic dynamic rays for transcendental entire maps which have bounded post-singular sets, by using standard hyperbolic geometry results.

A subequation on an open subset $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a subset $F$ of the space of $2$-jets on $X$ with certain properties. A smooth function is said to be $F$-subharmonic if all of its $2$-jets lie in $F$, and using the viscosity…

The duality theorem of Lass relates the matching polynomials of a simple graph $G$ with the matching polynomials of its complement $\bar G$. In particular, this relation gives rise to Godsil's result, which offers a nice interpretation of…

Let $D$ be a non-empty effective divisor on $\mathbb{P}^1$. We show that when ordered by height, any set of $(D,S)$-integral points on $\mathbb{P}^1$ of bounded degree has relative density zero. We then apply this to arithmetic dynamics:…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $ \overline{\mathbb Q}$, and $f:X -rightarrow X$ be a dominant rational map. Let $\delta_{f}$ be the first dynamical degree of $f$ and $h_{X}:X( \overline{\mathbb Q})\to [1,\infty)$ be a Weil…

In this paper we solve a problem raised by Guti\'errez and Montanari about comparison principles for $H-$convex functions on subdomains of Heisenberg groups. Our approach is based on the notion of the sub-Riemannian horizontal normal…

Let $X, Y$ be smooth algebraic varieties of the same dimension. Let $f, g : X \to Y$ be finite polynomial mappings. We say that $f, g$ are equivalent if there exists a regular automorphism $\Phi \in Aut(X)$ such that $f = g\circ \Phi$. Of…

Consider a compact manifold M of dimension at least 2 and the space of C^r-smooth diffeomorphisms Diff^r(M). The classical Artin-Mazur theorem says that for a dense subset D of Diff^r(M) the number of isolated periodic points grows at most…
