In this paper we study perturbations of rational Collet-Eckmann maps for which the Julia set is the whole sphere, and for which the critical set is allowed to be slowly recurrent. We show that any such map is a Lebesgue density point of…
We construct Feigenbaum quadratic polynomials whose Julia sets have positive Lebesgue measure. They provide first examples of rational maps for which the hyperbolic dimension is different from the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set. The…
Let f be a dominant rational map of P^k such that there exists s <k, with lambda_s(f)>lambda_l(f) for all l. Under mild hypotheses, we show that, for A outside a pluripolar set of the group of automorphisms of P^k, the map f o A admits a…
We study the dynamics of a generic endomorphism $f$ of an Oka-Stein manifold $X$. Such manifolds include all connected linear algebraic groups and, more generally, all Stein homogeneous spaces of complex Lie groups. We give several…
If $X$ is the attractor set of a conformal IFS in dimension two or three, we prove that there exists a quasiregular semigroup $G$ with Julia set equal to $X$. We also show that in dimension two, with a further assumption similar to the open…
In this paper we study the relation between the existence of a conformal measure on the Julia set $J(f)$ of a transcendental meromorphic map $f$ and the existence of zero of the topological pressure function $t \mapsto P(f, t)$ for the map…
We survey the definition of the radial Julia set of a meromorphic function (in fact, more generally, any "Ahlfors islands map"), and give a simple proof that the Hausdorff dimension of the reduced Julia set always coincides with the…
In this paper we prove the following: Take any "small Mandelbrot set" and zoom in a neighborhood of a parabolic or Misiurewicz parameter in it, then we can see a quasiconformal image of a Cantor Julia set which is a perturbation of a…
This article proves hypersurfaces of degree d in projective n-space are "rationally simply-connected" if $d^2 \leq n$. In a forthcoming paper, de Jong and I prove a slightly weaker result when $d^2 \leq n+1$.
We prove a dynamical Shafarevich theorem on the finiteness of the set of isomorphism classes of rational maps with fixed degeneracies. More precisely, fix an integer d at least 2 and let K be either a number field or the function field of a…
Rationally null-homologous links in Seifert fibered spaces may be represented combinatorially via labeled diagrams. We introduce an additional condition on a labeled link diagram and prove that it is equivalent to the existence of a…
We studied the transfer operators defined over $\mathbb{C}_p$-valued analytic functions for subhyperbolic rational maps on $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and showed that the corresponding Ruelle's zeta functions are meromorphic on $\mathbb{C}_p$. We also…
We show that an $n$-dimensional compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ admitting a non-degenerate meromorphic map $f:{\bf C}^n\to X$ of order $\rho_f<2$ is rationally connected.
We study transcendental singularities of a Schr\"oder map arising from a rational function $f$, using results from complex dynamics and Nevanlinna theory. These maps are transcendental meromorphic functions of finite order in the complex…
We prove that the Julia set $J(f)$ of at most finitely renormalizable unicritical polynomial $f:z\mapsto z^d+c$ with all periodic points repelling is locally connected. (For $d=2$ it was proved by Yoccoz around 1990.) It follows from a…
Let $P$ be a polynomial with a connected Julia set $J$. We use continuum theory to show that it admits a \emph{finest monotone map $\ph$ onto a locally connected continuum $J_{\sim_P}$}, i.e. a monotone map $\ph:J\to J_{\sim_P}$ such that…
We give a new proof of a theorem of Hubbard-Oberste-Vorth [HOV2] for H\'enon maps that are perturbations of a hyperbolic polynomial and recover the Julia set $J^{+}$ inside a polydisk as the image of the fixed point of a contracting…
Freire, Lopes and Mane proved that for any rational map f there exists a natural invariant measure \mu_f [5]. Mane showed there exists an n>0 such that (f^n, \mu_f) is measurably conjugate to the one-sided $d^n$-shift, with Bernoulli…
We define arithmetical and dynamical degrees for dynamical systems with several rational maps on projective varieties, study their properties and relations, and prove the existence of a canonical height function associated with divisorial…
We show that there is a spectral gap for the transfer operator associated to a rational map f on the Riemann sphere. Using this and the method of pertubed operators we establish the (Local) Central Limit Theorem for the measure of maximal…
