We look at sequences of positive integers that can be realized as degree sequences of iterates of rational dominant maps of smooth projective varieties over arbitrary fields. New constraints on the degree growth of endomorphisms of the…

The dynamics of a linear dynamical system over a finite field can be described by using the elementary divisors of the corresponding matrix. It is natural to extend the investigation to a general finite commutative ring. In a previous…

Let $f\colon X \dashrightarrow X$ be a birational transformation of a projective manifold $X$ whose Kodaira dimension $\kappa(X)$ is non-negative. We show that, if there exist a meromorphic fibration $\pi \colon X\dashrightarrow B$ and a…

We study degree two unirational parameterizations of geometrically rational surfaces over the real field.

Flat surfaces that correspond to $k$-differentials on compact Riemann surfaces are of finite area provided there is no pole of order $k$ or higher. We denote by \textit{flat surfaces with poles of higher order} those surfaces with flat…

We provide a classification of complex projective surfaces with a holomorphic foliation whose group of birational symetries is infinite.

Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement of…

Using tools from computable analysis we develop a notion of effectiveness for general dynamical systems as those group actions on arbitrary spaces that contain a computable representative in their topological conjugacy class. Most natural…

Some linear dynamical systems over finite fields are studied and the self-similar character of their development is proved. Connections with aperiodic tilings, Delanoy numbers and other topics are also proved. The prime fields F_p have a…

Let X be a smooth projective complex variety, of dimension 3, whose Hodge numbers h^{3,0}(X), h^{1,0}(X) both vanish. Let f: X--> X be a birational map that induces an isomorphism on (dense) open subvarieties U,V of X. Then we show that the…

For any given natural $d\ge 1$ we provide examples of rational self-maps of complex projective plane $\pp^2$ of degree $d$ without (holomorphic) fixed points. This makes a contrast with the situation in one dimension. We also prove that the…

We prove an analog of Belyi's theorem for the algebraic surfaces. Namely, any non-singular algebraic surface can be defined over a number field if and only it covers the complex projective plane with ramification at three knotted…

The paper concludes the cycle of investigations on the bifurcation diagrams of the system with three degrees of freedom which describes the motion of an axially symmetric top with the Kowalevski conditions in a double force field. The…

Let f : X --> X be an endomorphism of a normal projective variety defined over a global field K, and let D_0,D_1,D_2,... be divisor classes that form a Jordan block with eigenvalue b for the action of f^* on Pic(X) tensored with C. We…

We provide an example of how the complex dynamics of a recently introduced model can be understood via a detailed analysis of its associated Riemann surface. Thanks to this geometric description an explicit formula for the period of the…

We prove that a finite group acting by birational automorphisms of a non-trivial Severi-Brauer surface over a field of characteristic zero contains a normal abelian subgroup of index at most 3. Also, we find an explicit bound for orders of…

We study the degree growth of iterates of meromorphic selfmaps of compact Kahler surfaces. Using cohomology classes on the Riemann-Zariski space we show that the degrees grow similarly to those of mappings that are algebraically stable on…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for an automorphism of the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface (non necessarily algebraic) to be induced by an automorphism of the surface. We prove furthermore that the group of birational…

In this article we prove the following boundedness result: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1]$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be the set of all log pairs $(X, \Delta)$ satisfying the following properties: (i) $X$ is a projective surface defined over an…

A birational map from a projective space onto a not too much singular projective variety with a single irreducible non-singular base locus scheme (special birational transformation) is a rare enough phenomenon to allow meaningful and…
