We give an explicit family of polynomial maps called center unstable H\'enon-like maps and prove that they exhibits blenders for some parametervalues. Using this family, we also prove the occurrence of blenders near certain non-transverse…

A blender is a closed convex cone of real homogeneous polynomials that is also closed under linear changes of variable. Non-trivial blenders only occur in even degree. Examples include the cones of psd forms, sos forms, convex forms and…

We study partially-hyperbolic skew-product maps over the Bernoulli shift with H\"older dependence on the base points. In the case of contracting fiber maps, symbolic blender-horseshoe is defined as an invariant set which meets any almost…

A basic problem in complex dynamics is to understand orbits of holomorphic maps. One problem is to understand the collection of points $S$ in an attracting basin whose forward orbits land exactly on the attracting fixed point. In the paper…

Heterodimensional cycles are heteroclinic cycles that connect periodic orbits whose unstable manifolds have different dimensions. This is a source of nonhyperbolic dynamics and unstable dimension variability. For smooth invertible maps…

Let $f(z,w)=(p(z),q(z,w))$ be a polynomial skew product such that the degrees of $p$ and $q$ are grater than or equal to $2$. Under one or two conditions, we prove that $f$ is conjugate to a monomial map on an invariant region near…

A polynomial skew product of C^2 is a map of the form f(z,w) = (p(z), q(z,w)), where p and q are polynomials, such that f is regular of degree d >= 2. For polynomial maps of C, hyperbolicity is equivalent to the condition that the closure…

We show that the following variant of labeling rotating maps is NP-hard, and present a polynomial approximation scheme for solving it. The input is a set of feature points on a map, to each of which a vertical bar of zero width is assigned.…

Let $f(z,w)=(p(z),q(z,w))$ be a holomorphic skew product with a superattracting fixed point at the origin. Under one or two assumptions, we prove that $f$ is conjugate to a monomial map on an invariant open set whose closure contains the…

We define a regular polynomial skew product $(p(z),q(z,w))$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ of degree $d\geq 2$ to be special if it is triangularly conjugate to a map of the form $(p(z),q(w))$, where $p$ and $q$ are power maps or $\pm$Chebyshev maps, or…

A blender for a surface endomorphism is a hyperbolic basic set for which the union of the local unstable manifolds contains robustly an open set. Introduced by Bonatti and D{\'i}az in the 90s, blenders turned out to have many powerful…

We present a characterisation of blenders based on mapping properties of certain sets of curves that can be rigorously verified by computer-assisted methods. We develop an algorithm to construct these sets of curves that requires only a…

We discuss dynamics of skew product maps defined by circle diffeomorphisms forced by expanding circle maps. We construct an open class of such systems that are robust topologically mixing and for which almost all points in the same fiber…

We study bifurcations of periodic orbits in three parameter general unfoldings of certain types quadratic homoclinic tangencies to saddle fixed points. We apply the rescaling technique to first return (Poincar\'e) maps and show that the…

We consider skew-products of quadratic maps over certain Misiurewicz-Thurston maps and study their statistical properties. We prove that, when the coupling function is a polynomial of odd degree, such a system admits two positive Lyapunov…

For an endomorphism s of R with s^{t}=1 we prove that the truncated polynomial ring (algebra) R[w,s]/(w^{t}) embeds into M_{t}(R[z]/(z^{t})). For an involution we exhibit an embedding of R into M_{2,1}^{s}(R), where M_{2,1}^{s}(R) is the…

A "blendstring" is a piecewise polynomial interpolant with high-degree two-point Hermite interpolational polynomials on each piece, analogous to a cubic spline. Blendstrings are smoother and can be more accurate than cubic splines, and can…

Blenders are special hyperbolic sets used to produce various robust dynamical phenomena which appear fragile at first glance. We prove for $C^r$ diffeomorphisms ($r=2,\dots,\infty,\omega$) that blenders naturally exist (without…

We propose a method to identify and to locate "repellers'' in quasi-periodically forced logistic map (QPLM), using a kind of Morse decomposition of nested attracting invariant sets. In order to obtain the invariant sets, we use an auxiliary…

The aim of this paper is to show that the existence of attracting sets for quasiperiodically forced systems can be extended to appropriate skew-products on the cylinder, homotopic to the identity, in such a way that the general system will…
