We present a natural extension of the notion of nondegenerate rational maps (quadrirational maps) to arbitrary dimensions. We refer to these maps as $2^n-$rational maps. In this note we construct a rich family of $2^n-$rational maps. These…

I show that the set of smooth curves of genus g admitting branched coverings X->P^1 with only triple ramification points has dimension at least max(2g-3,g). In characteristic two, such curves have tame rational functions and an analog of…

Let $X,Y$ be two irreducible subvarieties of the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$, and $d\geq 1$ an integer number. The main result of this paper is an algorithm to construct {\bf explicitly}, in terms of $d$ and the ideals defining $X$ and…

We consider a one-dimensional family of rational surfaces with automorphisms. In a degeneration of this family, the limiting map is the identity map on a special fiber. We check that the map on the total space of the family has…

The study of the moduli of covers of the projective line leads to the theory of Hurwitz varieties covering configuration varieties. Certain one-dimensional slices of these coverings are particularly interesting Belyi maps. We present…

A K3 surface over a number field has infinitely many rational points over a finite field extension. For K3 surfaces of degree 2, arising as double covers of $\mathbb{P}^2$ branched along a smooth sextic curve, we give a bound for the degree…

We investigate the universal Severi variety of rational curves on K3 surfaces, which parametrises irreducible rational curves in a fixed class on varying K3 surfaces of fixed genus. We investigate the conjecuted irreducibility of this space…

An almost Belyi covering is an algebraic covering of the projective line, such that all ramified points except one simple ramified point lie above a set of 3 points of the projective line. In general, there are 1-dimensional families of…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, $X$ an irreducible variety and $Y$ an irreducible projective variety over $K$, both are not necessarily smooth. Let $f:X\rightarrow X$ and $g:Y\rightarrow Y$ be dominant…

A tri-linear rational map in dimension three is a rational map $\phi: (\mathbb{P}_\mathbb{C}^1)^3 \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}_\mathbb{C}^3$ defined by four tri-linear polynomials without a common factor. If $\phi$ admits an inverse rational…

We discuss the dynamical, topological, and algebraic classification of rational maps $f$ of the Riemann sphere to itself each of whose critical points $c$ is also a fixed-point of $f$, i.e. $f(c)=c$.

The dominant rational maps of finite degree from a fixed variety to varieties of general type, up to birational isomorphisms, form a finite set. This has been known as the Iitaka-Severi conjecture, and is nowdays an established result, in…

We show that the dynamical degree of an (i.i.d) random sequence of dominant, rational self-maps on projective space is almost surely constant. We then apply this result to height growth and height counting problems in random orbits.

An elliptic exceptional Belyi covering is a connected Belyi covering uniquely determined by its ramification scheme or the respective dessin d'enfant when the underlying compact Riemann surface has genus 1. We give our Maple algorithm and…

The moduli space ${\rm M}_{d}$, of complex rational maps of degree $d \geq 2$, is a connected complex orbifold which carries a natural real structure, coming from usual complex conjugation. Its real points are the classes of rational maps…

We develop a Belyi type theory that applies to Klein surfaces, i.e. (possibly non-orientable) surfaces with boundary which carry a dianalytic structure. In particular we extend Belyi's famous theorem from Riemann surfaces to Klein surfaces.

We give a class of examples of reducible (d-semistable) threefolds of CY type with two irreducible components for which (it is reasonably easy to prove that) no family of admissible genus zero stable maps sweeps out a surface, yet such…

The purpose of this short note is to study dominant rational maps from punctual Hilbert schemes of length $k>1$ of projective K3 surfaces $S$ containing infinitely many rational curves. Precisely, we prove that their image is necessarily…

In this paper, we study the dynamical uniform boundedness principle over a family of rational maps with certain nontrivial automorphisms. Specifically, we consider a family of rational maps of an arbitrary degree $d\ge 2$ whose automorphism…

We present all Belyi maps P^1(C) -> P^1(C) having almost simple primitive monodromy groups (not isomorphic to A_n or S_n) containing rigid and rational generating triples of degree between 50 and 250. This also leads to new polynomials…
