Let $M\subset C^N$ be a minimal real-analytic CR-submanifold and $M'\subset C^{N'}$ a real-algebraic subset through points $p\in M$ and $p'\in M'$. We show that that any formal (holomorphic) mapping $f\colon (C^N,p)\to (C^{N'},p')$, sending…

We prove that every postsingularly finite entire map $g$ can be approximated by a sequence of postcritically finite complex polynomials $(g_n)$ such that their postsingular dynamics $g|P_g$ and $g_n|P_{g_n}$ are conjugate for every $n \in…

The purpose of the present paper is to give an effective version of the noncritical $p$-tame Belyi theorem. That is to say, we compute explicitly an upper bound of the minimal degree of tamely ramified Belyi maps in positive characteristic…

For rational numbers $c$, we present a trichotomy of the set of totally real (totally $p$-adic, respectively) preperiodic points for maps in the quadratic unicritical family $f_c(x)=x^2+c$. As a consequence, we classify quadratic…

Let $P\in\mathbb{P}_1(\mathbb{Q})$ be a periodic point for a monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}$. With elementary techniques one sees that the minimal periodicity of $P$ is at most $2$. Recently we proved a generalization of…

Let $F$ be a rational function of one complex variable of degree $m\geq 2$. The function $F$ is called simple if for every $z\in \mathbb C\mathbb P^1$ the preimage $F^{-1}\{z\}$ contains at least $m-1$ points. We show that if $F$ is a…

We establish that every formal critical portrait (as defined by Goldberg and Milnor), can be realized by a postcritically finite polynomial.

We classify those rational maps $f: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ for which there exists a contravariant tensor $q$ which is parallel, i.e. such that $f^*q // q$, by proving that such maps preserve a parabolic orbifold.

Given a number field $K$ and a finite set $S$ of places of $K$, the first main result of this paper shows that the quadratic rational maps $\phi:{\mathbb P}^1\to{\mathbb P}^1$ defined over $K$ which have good reduction at all places outside…

Let K be a function field, let f be a rational function of degree d at least 2 defined over K, and suppose that f is not isotrivial. In this paper, we show that a point P in P^1(Kbar) has f-canonical height zero if and only if P is…

In this paper, we construct geometrically finite rational maps with buried critical points on the boundaries of some hyperbolic components by using the pinching and plumbing deformations.

We explore distribution questions for rational maps on the projective line $\mathbb{P}^1$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ within the framework of arithmetic dynamics, drawing analogies to elliptic curves. Specifically, we investigate counting problems…

For each integer $m \geq 1$, we construct a finite-dimensional family of rational maps, given by Blaschke-type products, whose restriction to the unit circle consists of $2m$-multimodal maps. We show that every post-critically finite…

This paper constructs a combinatorial model for all postcritically finite rational maps arising as the Newton's method of a complex polynomial. This model is used in [LMS] to give a combinatorial classification of postcritically finite…

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. $f(c)=c$.

We investigate the dynamics of semigroups generated by a family of polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere such that the postcritical set in the complex plane is bounded. The Julia set of such a semigroup may not be connected in general. We…

We say that a subset of $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{R})$ is maximally singular if its contains points with $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly independent homogenous coordinates whose uniform exponent of simultaneous rational approximation is equal to $1$, the…

Let $\Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1, X)$ be the space of based holomorphic maps of degree ${\bf n}$ from $\C\P^1$ into a simply connected algebraic variety $X$. Under some condition we prove that the map $\map \Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1,…

We show that the set of conjugacy classes of cubic polynomials with a prefixed critical point, of preperiod $k\geq 1$, is an irreducible algebraic curve. We also establish an analogous result for quadratic rational maps. We then study a…

Let $\varphi:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q)\to\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q)$ be a rational map of degree $d>1$ on a fixed finite field. We give asymptotic formulas for the size of image sets $\varphi^n(\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb F_q))$ as a function of…
