We provide an experimental study of the existence of Herman rings in a parametrized family of rational maps preserving antipodal points, and a discussion of their properties on $\mathbb{RP}^2$. We study analytic maps of the sphere that…

Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…

Rational maps on the Riemann sphere occupy a distinguished niche in the general theory of smooth dynamical systems. First, rational maps are complex-analytic, so a broad spectrum of techniques can contribute to their study (quasiconformal…

The family of Euclidean triangles having some fixed perimeter and area can be identified with a subset of points on a nonsingular cubic plane curve, i.e., an elliptic curve; furthermore, if the perimeter and the square of the area are…

In this paper, we study some group-theoretic constructions associated to arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over finite fields. One of the main results of this paper asserts that any Frobenius-preserving isomorphism between…

In this paper, we construct polynomial growth harmonic maps from once-punctured Riemann surfaces of any finite genus to any even-sided, regular, ideal polygon in the hyperbolic plane. We also establish their uniqueness within a class of…

We prove that the space of dominant/non-constant holomorphic mappings from a product of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite type into certain hyperbolic manifolds with universal cover a bounded domain is a finite set.

In this paper we consider families of holomorphic maps defined on subsets of the complex plane, and show that the technique developed in \cite{LSvS1} to treat unfolding of critical relations can also be used to deal with cases where the…

We consider the family of dynamical modular curves associated to quadratic polynomial maps and determine precisely which of these curves have infinitely many cubic points. We use this to prove a classification statement on preperiodic…

We define and compute hyperbolic coordinates and associated foliations which provide a new way to describe the geometry of the standard map. We also identify a uniformly hyperbolic region and a complementary 'critical' region containing a…

We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…

A construction is given of Markov partitions for some rational maps, which persist over regions of parameter space, not confined to single hyperbolic components. The set on which the Markov partition exists, and its boundary, are analysed.

We consider the dynamics of complex rational maps on the Riemann sphere. We prove that, after reducing their orbits to a fixed number of positive values representing the Fubini-Study distances between finitely many initial elements of the…

Let $\Lambda$ be a quasi-projective variety and assume that, either $\Lambda$ is a subvariety of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_d$ of degree $d$ rational maps, or $\Lambda$ parametrizes an algebraic family $(f_\lambda)_{\lambda\in\Lambda}$…

The classical Lusternik-Schnirelman-Borsuk theorem states that if a d-sphere is covered by d+1 closed sets, then at least one of the sets must contain a pair of antipodal points. In this paper, we prove a combinatorial version of this…

For compact Riemann surfaces, the collar theorem and Bers' partition theorem are major tools for working with simple closed geodesics. The main goal of this paper is to prove similar theorems for hyperbolic cone-surfaces. Hyperbolic…

We show the existence of group-theoretic sections of certain geometrically pro-nilpotent by abelian arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields which are non-geometric, i.e., which do not arise from rational…

In this article, we study the topology and bifurcations of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_3$ of cubic Newton maps. It's a subspace of the moduli space of cubic rational maps, carrying the Riemann orbifold structure $(\mathbb{\widehat{C}},…

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…

Negatively curved, or hyperbolic, regions of space in an FRW universe are a realistic possibility. These regions might occur in voids where there is no dark matter with only dark energy present. Hyperbolic space is strange and various…
