Chebyshev maps in the complex plane are typical chaotic maps. Veselov generalized these map. We consider a class of those maps and view them as holomorphic endomorphisms on the 3-dimensional complex projective space and make use of the…

We investigate the automorphism groups of the algebraic curves \[ \mathcal{C}_d : y^d = \varphi_d(x), \] where $\varphi_d(x)$ denotes the Chebyshev polynomial of degree $d$, defined over a field $k$ with $p:=\operatorname{char}(k) \nmid…

We study the dynamics of the family $f_c(x, y)= (xy+c, x)$ of endomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathbb{C}^2$, where $c$ is a real or complex parameter. Such maps can be seen as perturbations of the map $f_0(x,y)=(xy,x)$, which is a…

A generic polynomial f(x,y,z) with a prescribed Newton polytope defines a symmetric spatial curve f(x,y,z)=f(y,x,z)=0. We study its geometry: the number, degree and genus of its irreducible components, the number and type of singularities,…

For maps of one complex variable, $f$, given as the sum of a degree $n$ power map and a degree $d$ polynomial, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions that the geometric limit as $n$ approaches infinity of the set of points that…

We consider a large family of dynamical Belyi maps of arbitrary degree and study the arithmetic monodromy groups attached to the iterates of such maps. Building on the results of Bouw-Ejder-Karemaker on the geometric monodromy groups of…

We introduce and study the dynamics of Chebyshev polynomials on $d>2$ real intervals. We define isoharmonic deformations as a natural generalization of the Chebyshev dynamics. This dynamics is associated with a novel class of constrained…

Every affine Weyl group appears as the iterated monodromy group of a Chebyshev-like polynomial self-map of $\mathbb{C}^n$.

This paper contains a quite detailed description of the C*-algebra arising from the transformation groupoid of a rational map of degree at least two on the Riemann sphere. The algebra is decomposed stepwise via extensions of familiar…

This work dynamically classifies a 9-parametric family of birational maps f : C2 -> C2. From the sequence of the degrees dn of the iterates of f, we find the dynamical degree delta(f) of f. We identify when dn grows periodically, linearly,…

For a family $\mathcal{C}$ of properly embedded curves in the 2-dimensional disk $\mathbb{D}^{2}$ satisfying certain uniqueness properties, we consider convex polygons $P\subset \mathbb{D}^{2}$ and define a metric $d$ on $P$ such that…

We show how the size of the Galois groups of iterates of a quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ can be parametrized by certain rational points on the curves $C_n:y^2=f^n(x)$ and their quadratic twists. To that end, we study the arithmetic of such…

We argue that discrete dynamics has natural links to the theory of analytic functions. Most important, bifurcations and chaotic dynamical properties are related to intersections of algebraic varieties. This paves the way to identification…

A matrix polynomial is a polynomial in a complex variable $\lambda$ with coefficients in $n \times n$ complex matrices. The spectral curve of a matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$ is the curve $\{ (\lambda, \mu) \in \mathbb{C}^2 \mid…

Using a unified method, we determine the structure of automorphisms and representations of arbitrary polyadic groups. More precisely, for a polyadic group $(G, f)=der_{\theta, b}(G, \cdot)$, we obtain a complete description of automorphisms…

Let $G$ be a group. The directed endomorphism graph, $\dend(G)$ of $G$ is a directed graph with vertex set $G$ and there is a directed edge from the vertex $a$ to the vertex $b$ if $a \neq b$ and there exists an endomorphism on $G$ mapping…

We are studying topological properties of the Julia set of the map $F(z, p)=((2z/(p+1)-1)^2, ((p-1)/(p+1))^2)$ of the complex projective plane $PC^2$ to itself. We show a relation of this rational function with an uncountable family of…

Generalized unitarity cut of a Feynman diagram generates an algebraic system of polynomial equations. At high-loop levels, these equations may define a complex curve or a (hyper-)surface with complicated topology. We study the curve cases,…
