We will consider iteration of an analytic self-map $f$ of the unit ball in $\mathbb{C}^N$. Many facts were established about such dynamics in the 1-dimensional case (i.e. for self-maps of the unit disk), and we will generalize some of them…

We study the backward invariant set of one-parameter semigroups of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disc. Such a set is foliated in maximal invariant curves and its open connected components are petals, which are, in fact, images of…

We show that the bilateral backward shift on $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z},\omega)$ that has a projective orbit with a non-zero limit point is supercyclic. This phenomenon holds also for $\Gamma$-supercyclicity, which extends a result obtained for the…

We give a complete description of the stable subset (the union of all backward orbit with bounded step) and of the pre-models of a univalent self-map $f: X\to X$, where $X$ is a Kobayashi hyperbolic cocompact complex manifold, such as the…

We study the interplay between the backward dynamics of a non-expanding self-map $f$ of a proper geodesic Gromov hyperbolic metric space $X$ and the boundary regular fixed points of $f$ in the Gromov boundary. To do so, we introduce the…

We prove the existence and the essential uniqueness of canonical models for the forward (resp. backward) iteration of a holomorphic self-map $f$ of a cocompact Kobayashi hyperbolic complex manifold, such as the ball $\mathbb{B}^q$ or the…

We prove that a backward orbit with bounded Kobayashi step for a hyperbolic or strongly elliptic holomorphic self-map of a bounded strongly convex domain in the d-dimensional complex Euclidean space necessarily converges to a boundary fixed…

We explore two properties of backward orbits under semigroups of holomorphic self-maps in the unit disk. First, we prove that regular backward orbits are quasi-geodesics for the hyperbolic distance of the unit disk. Then, we show that…

Let $(\phi_t)$ be a continuous semigroup of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with Denjoy-Wolff point $\tau\in\overline{\mathbb{D}}$. We study the rate of convergence of the forward orbits of $(\phi_t)$ to the Denjoy-Wolff…

A lot is known about the forward iterates of an analytic function which is bounded by 1 in modulus on the unit disk. The Denjoy-Wolff Theorem describes their convergence properties and several authors, from the 1880's to the 1980's, have…

We analyze a real one-parameter family of quasiconformal deformations of a hyperbolic rational map known as {\em spinning}. We show that under fairly general hypotheses, the limit of spinning either exists and is unique, or else converges…

We show that repelling periodic points are landing points of periodic rays for exponential maps whose singular value has bounded orbit. For polynomials with connected Julia sets, this is a celebrated theorem by Douady, for which we present…

We consider entire transcendental maps with bounded set of singular values such that periodic rays exist and land. For such maps, we prove a refined version of the Fatou-Shishikura inequality which takes into account rationally invisible…

We prove that a finite family of commuting holomorphic self-maps of the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^q\subset \mathbb{C}^q$ admits a simultaneous holomorphic conjugacy to a family of commuting automorphisms of a possibly lower dimensional ball,…

We give an example of a parabolic holomorphic self-map $f$ of the unit ball $\mathbb B^2\subset \mathbb C^2$ whose canonical Kobayashi hyperbolic semi-model is given by an elliptic automorphism of the disc $\mathbb D\subset \mathbb C$,…

Let $D$ be a bounded domain in a complex Banach space. According to the Earle-Hamilton fixed point theorem, if a holomorphic mapping $F : D \mapsto D$ maps $D$ strictly into itself, then it has a unique fixed point and its iterates converge…

The bounded orbit conjecture says that every homeomorphism on the plane with each of its orbits being bounded must have a fixed point. Brouwer's translation theorem asserts that the conjecture is true for orientation preserving…

We consider $C^{1+\epsilon}$ diffeomorphisms of the torus, denoted $f,$ homotopic to the identity and whose rotation sets have interior. We give some uniform bounds on the displacement of points in the plane under iterates of a lift of $f,$…

We study bifurcations of symmetric elliptic fixed points in the case of \emph{p}:\emph{q} resonances with odd $q\geq 3$. We consider the case where the initial area-preserving map $\bar z =\lambda z + Q(z,z^*)$ possesses the central…

Following Part~I, we consider a class of reversible systems and study bifurcations of homoclinic orbits to hyperbolic saddle equilibria. Here we concentrate on the case in which homoclinic orbits are symmetric, so that only one control…
