Consider a holomorphic family $(f_\lambda)_{\lambda \in \Lambda}$ of polynomial maps on $\mathbb C$ with the property that a critical point of $f_\lambda$ is persistently preperiodic to a repelling periodic point of $f_\lambda$. Let…
The main theme of the paper is the dynamics of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of ${\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^n$ with the minimal possible number of periodic points (equal to $n+1$ by Arnold's conjecture), called here Hamiltonian pseudo-rotations.…
The main result of this paper is that every non-trivial Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed oriented surface of genus at least one has periodic points of arbitrarily high period. The same result is true for S^2 provided the…
We study the $C^*$-algebras associated to upper-semicontinuous Fell bundles over second-countable Hausdorff groupoids. Based on ideas going back to the Packer--Raeburn "Stabilization Trick," we construct from each such bundle a groupoid…
Consider a pseudogroup on (C,0) generated by two local diffeomorphisms having analytic conjugacy classes a priori fixed in Diff(C,0). We show that a generic pseudogroup as above is such that every point has (possibly trivial) cyclic…
We study orbits and fixed points of polynomials in a general skew polynomial ring $D[x,\sigma, \delta]$. We extend results of the first author and Vishkautsan on polynomial dynamics in $D[x]$. In particular, we show that if $a \in D$ and $f…
We prove that stability -- a strong quasiconvexity property -- pulls back under proper actions on proper metric spaces. This result has several applications, including that convex cocompact subgroups of both mapping class groups and outer…
We give simple and unified proofs of the known stability and rigidity results for Lie algebras, Lie subalgebras and Lie algebra homomorphisms. Moreover, we investigate when a Lie algebra homomorphism is stable under all automorphisms of the…
We present and discuss the orbital content of a rather unusual rotating barred galaxy model, in which the three-dimensional (3D) family, bifurcating from x1 at the 2:1 vertical resonance with the known "frown-smile" side-on morphology, is…
Given a polynomial $p$, the degree of its Chebyshev's method $C_p$ is determined. If $p$ is cubic then the degree of $C_p$ is found to be $4,6$ or $7$ and we investigate the dynamics of $C_p$ in these cases. If a cubic polynomial $p$ is…
The goal of this note is to prove the following theorem: Let $p_a(z) = z^2+a$ be a quadratic polynomial which has no irrational indifferent periodic points, and is not infinitely renormalizable. Then the Lebesgue measure of the Julia set…
In this paper we study rational Collet-Eckmann maps for which the Julia set is not the whole sphere and for which the critical points are recurrent at a slow rate. In families where the orders of the critical points are fixed, we prove that…
In this paper, the dynamics of the Chebyshev-Halley family is studied on quadratic polynomials. A singular set, that we call cat set, appears in the parameter space associated to the family. This cat set has interesting similarities with…
It has been shown that Cantor bubble Julia sets can appear in the dynamics of polynomials and their singular perturbations. In this paper, we present a criterion that guarantees the existence of Cantor bubble Julia sets for certain rational…
In this paper, we prove the equidistribution of periodic points of a regular polynomial automorphism f : A^n -> A^n defined over a number field K: let f be a regular polynomial automorphism defined over a number field K and let v be a prime…
For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…
In this paper, we investigate the existence of fixed-point-free automorphisms for finite-dimensional Lie algebras. By a result of Jacobson, a Lie algebra admitting a fixed-point-free automorphism is solvable. We prove that such a Lie…
According to the Thurston No Wandering Triangle Theorem, a branching point in a locally connected quadratic Julia set is either preperiodic or precritical. Blokh and Oversteegen proved that this theorem does not hold for higher degree Julia…
The study of the dynamics of an holomorphic map near a fixed point is a central topic in complex dynamical systems. In this paper we will consider the corresponding random setting: given a probability measure $\nu$ with compact support on…
We give an introduction to the "stable algebra of matrices" as related to certain problems in symbolic dynamics. We consider this stable algebra (especially, shift equivalence and strong shift equivalence) for matrices over general rings as…
