Given any rational map $f$, there is a lamination by Riemann surfaces associated to $f$. Such laminations were constructed in general by Lyubich and Minsky. In this paper, we classify laminations associated to quadratic polynomials with…

Given any triplet of positive integers $n \geq 2$, $m$ and $k$ such that $n=m+k$, we exhibit a $C^1$ robustly transitive endomorphism of $\mathbb{T}^n$ with persistent critical points in the isotopy class of $F \times Id$, where $F$ is an…

We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

We consider the family of dynamical modular curves associated to quadratic polynomial maps and determine precisely which of these curves have infinitely many cubic points. We use this to prove a classification statement on preperiodic…

We study complex one-dimensional parameter slices in a three-parameter family of rational maps with two free critical points, obtained by imposing the existence of periodic orbits with prescribed multipliers. Using explicit…

We prove the existence of an effective universal upper bound for the order of any integral periodic orbit of any integral algebraic dynamical system in a fixed ambient space. Using this, we demonstrate the decidability of periodicity in…

Every Thurston map $f\colon S^2\rightarrow S^2$ on a $2$-sphere $S^2$ induces a pull-back operation on Jordan curves $\alpha\subset S^2\setminus P_f$, where $P_f$ is the postcritical set of $f$. Here the isotopy class $[f^{-1}(\alpha)]$…

This paper continues discussions in the author's previous paper about the Misiurewicz polynomials defined for a family of degree $d \ge 2$ rational maps with an automorphism group containing the cyclic group of order $d$. In particular, we…

A polynomial $f$ of degree $d$ and coefficients in an algebraically closed field $k$ defines a morphism $f:\mathbb{P}^1_k\longrightarrow\mathbb{P}^1_k$ which, if char$(k)\nmid d$, is unramified outside a finite set of points in the image:…

Polynomial ensembles are determinantal point processes associated with (non necessarily orthogonal) projections onto polynomial subspaces. The aim of this survey article is to put forward the use of recurrence coefficients to obtain the…

We prove that cubic polynomial maps with a fixed Siegel disk and a critical orbit eventually landing inside that Siegel disk lie in the support of the bifurcation measure. This answers a question of Dujardin in positive. Our result implies…

In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for self-mappings defined on bipolar metric spaces using a new class of contractive conditions, namely polynomial-type contractions. Our main results establish…

We define geometric critical exponents for systems that undergo continuous second order classical and quantum phase transitions. These relate scalar quantities on the information theoretic parameter manifolds of such systems, near…

A polynomial skew product of C^2 is a map of the form f(z,w) = (p(z), q(z,w)), where p and q are polynomials, such that f is regular of degree d >= 2. For polynomial maps of C, hyperbolicity is equivalent to the condition that the closure…

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 $\mathbb{K}$ be a field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ the corresponding multivariate polynomial ring. Given a sequence of $s$ polynomials $\mathbf{f} = (f_1, \dots, f_s)$ and a polynomial $\phi$, all in…

Thurston introduced \emph{invariant (quadratic) laminations} in his 1984 preprint as a vehicle for understanding the connected Julia sets and the parameter space of quadratic polynomials. Important ingredients of his analysis of the angle…

Let $p_n$ be a random, degree $n$ polynomial whose roots are chosen independently according to the probability measure $\mu$ on the complex plane. For a deterministic point $\xi$ lying outside the support of $\mu$, we show that almost…

Let f be a real or complex polynomial. We give an algorithm to compute the set of generalized critical values. The algorithm uses a finite dimensional space of rational arcs along which we can reach all generalized critical values of f.

A continuous selection of polynomial functions is a continuous function whose domain can be partitioned into finitely many pieces on which the function coincides with a polynomial. Given a set of finitely many polynomials, we show that…
