Suppose that 2d-2 tangent lines to the rational normal curve z\mapsto (1 : z : ... : z^d) in d-dimensional complex projective space are given. It was known that the number of codimension 2 subspaces intersecting all these lines is always…
We prove that hypersurfaces defined by irreducible square-free polynomials have rational singularities. As an easy consequence, we deduce that certain (possibly non-square-free) polynomials associated to pairs of square-free polynomials…
If alpha is an irrational number, we define Yoccoz's Brjuno function Phi by Phi(alpha)=sum_{n geq 0} alpha_0*alpha_1*...*alpha_{n-1}*log(1/alpha_n), where alpha_0 is the fractional part of alpha and alpha_{n+1} is the fractional part of…
Adopting the approach of [7] we study rational function carrying invariant line fields on the Julia set. In particular, we show that under certain weak conditions all possible measurable invariant line fields of a rational function on its…
In 1923 Schur considered the following problem. Let f(X) be a polynomial with integer coefficients that induces a bijection on the residue fields Z/pZ for infinitely many primes p. His conjecture, that such polynomials are compositions of…
Makienko's conjecture, a proposed addition to Sullivan's dictionary, can be stated as follows: The Julia set of a rational function R has buried points if and only if no component of the Fatou set is completely invariant under the second…
We prove that if two non-renormalizable cubic Siegel polynomials with bounded type rotation numbers are combinatorially equivalent, then they are also conformally equivalent. As a consequence, we show that in the one-parameter slice of…
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 consider a one-parameter family of degree $d\ge 2$ rational maps with an automorphism group containing the cyclic group of order $d$. We construct a polynomial whose roots correspond to parameter values for which the…
We show that if a 1-hyperbolic structurally finite entire function of type $(p,q)$, $p\ge 1$, is linearizable at an irrationally indifferent fixed point, then its multiplier satisfies the Brjuno condition. We also prove the generalized…
Let $f_\theta(z)=e^{2\pi i\theta}z+z^2$ be the quadratic polynomial having an indifferent fixed point at the origin. For any bounded type irrational number $\theta\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\mathbb{Q}$ and any rational number $\nu\in\mathbb{Q}$,…
We study rigidity of rational maps that come from Newton's root finding method for polynomials of arbitrary degrees. We establish dynamical rigidity of these maps: each point in the Julia set of a Newton map is either rigid (i.e. its orbit…
We prove the real non-attractive fixed point conjecture for complex polynomial and rational harmonic functions. A harmonic function $f=h+\overline{g}$ is polynomial (rational) if both $h$ and $g$ are polynomials (rational functions) of…
We show, assuming Schanuel's conjecture, that every irreducible complex polynomial in two variables where both variables appear has infinitely many algebraically independent solutions of the form (z,e^z).
Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to…
We prove that any unicritical polynomial $f_c:z\mapsto z^d+c$ which is at most finitely renormalizable and has only repelling periodic points is combinatorially rigid. It implies that the connectedness locus (the ``Multibrot set'') is…
We consider polynomials that are orthogonal over an analytic Jordan curve L with respect to a positive analytic weight, and show that each such polynomial of sufficiently large degree can be expanded in a series of certain integral…
Assuming Schanuel's conjecture, we prove that any polynomial exponential equation in one variable must have a solution that is transcendental over a given finitely generated field. With the help of some recent results in Diophantine…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, let X=P^1\times A^N and let f be a rational endomorphism of X given by (x,y)--->(g(x), A(x)y), where g is a rational function, while A is an N-by-N matrix with entries in k(x). We…
For polynomials, local connectivity of Julia sets is a much-studied and important property. Indeed, when the Julia set of a polynomial of degree $d\geq 2$ is locally connected, the topological dynamics can be completely described as a…
