It is a theorem of Denker and Urba\'nski ('91) that if $T:\mathbb C\to\mathbb C$ is a rational map of degree at least two and if $\phi:\mathbb C\to\mathbb R$ is H\"older continuous and satisfies the "thermodynamic expanding" condition…

Let $f: S^2 \to S^2$ be a continuous map of degree $d$, $|d|>1$, and let $N_nf$ denote the number of fixed points of $f^n$. We show that if $f$ is a Thurston map with non hyperbolic orbifold, then either the growth rate inequality $\limsup…
