We find the exact radius of linearization disks at indifferent fixed points of quadratic maps in $\mathbb{C}_p$. We also show that the radius is invariant under power series perturbations. Localizing all periodic orbits of these…

We study the minimal resultant divisor of self-maps of the projective line over a number field or a function field and its relation to the conductor. The guiding focus is the exploration of a dynamical analog to Theorem 1.1, which bounds…

We study the dynamics of a piecewise map defined on the set of three pairwise nonparallel, nonconcurrent lines in $\mathbb{R}^2$. The geometric map of study may be analogized to the billiard map with a different reflection rule so that each…

In this paper we study the reduction of $p$-cyclic covers of the $p$-adic line ramified at exactly four points. For $p=2$ these covers are elliptic curves and Deuring has given a criterion for when such a curve has good reduction. Here we…

A case study of arithmetic dynamics over the rationals on the Markoff surface is presented, in particular the local-global dynamical property of strong residual periodicity. The dynamical system induced by the composition of any two of the…

The set of morphisms $\f:\PP^1\to\PP^1$ of degree $d$ is parametrized by an affine open subset $\Rat_d$ of $\PP^{2d+1}$. We consider the action of~$\SL_2$ on $\Rat_d$ induced by the {\it conjugation action\/} of $\SL_2$ on rational maps;…

We show that a strong well-based cylindrical algebraic decomposition P of a bounded semi-algebraic set is a regular cell decomposition, in any dimension and independently of the method by which P is constructed. Being well-based is a global…

Let $K$ be a number field and $v$ a non archimedean valuation on $K$. We say that an endomorphism $\Phi\colon \mathbb{P}_1\to \mathbb{P}_1$ has good reduction at $v$ if there exists a model $\Psi$ for $\Phi$ such that $\deg\Psi_v$, the…

This will is an expository description of quadratic rational maps. Sections 2 through 6 are concerned with the geometry and topology of such maps. Sections 7--10 survey of some topics from the dynamics of quadratic rational maps. There are…

We study the limiting behavior of minimizing $p$-harmonic maps from a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ to a compact connected Riemannian manifold without boundary and with finite fundamental group as $p \nearrow 2$.…

We present a database of rational elliptic curves, up to Q-isomorphism, with good reduction outside {2,3,5,7,11,13}. We provide a heuristic involving the abc and BSD conjectures that the database is likely to be the complete set of such…

We study deformations of rational curves and their singularities in positive characteristic. We use this to prove that if a smooth and proper surface in positive characteristic $p$ is dominated by a family of rational curves such that one…

The postcritical set $P(f)$ of a rational map $f:\mathbb P^1\to \mathbb P^1$ is the smallest forward invariant subset of $\mathbb P^1$ that contains the critical values of $f$. In this paper we show that every finite set $X\subset \mathbb…

We get three basic results in algebraic dynamics: (1). We give the first algorithm to compute the dynamical degrees to arbitrary precision. (2). We prove that for a family of dominant rational self-maps, the dynamical degrees are lower…

In this paper we present a class of maps for which the multiplicativity of the maximal output p-norm holds when p is 2 and p is larger than or equal to 4. The class includes all positive trace-preserving maps from the matrix algebra on the…

A rotational set is a finite subset $A$ of the unit circle $\mathbb{T}=\mathbb{R}/ \mathbb{Z}$ such that the angle-multiplying map $\sigma_{d}:t\mapsto dt$ maps $A$ onto itself by a cyclic permutation of its elements. Each rotational set…

The parameter space $\mathcal{S}_p$ for monic centered cubic polynomial maps with a marked critical point of period $p$ is a smooth affine algebraic curve whose genus increases rapidly with $p$. Each $\mathcal{S}_p$ consists of a compact…

We consider how the reduced dynamics of an open quantum system coupled to an environment admits the Poincar\'e symmetry. The reduced dynamics is described by a dynamical map, which is given by tracing out the environment from the total…
