We introduce a class of volume-contracting surface diffeomorphisms whose dynamics is intermediate between one-dimensional dynamics and general surface dynamics. For that type of systems one can associate to the dynamics a reduced…
In this note we give examples of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms which are on one hand dynamically complicated, for instance with positive topological entropy, and on the other hand minimal from the perspective of Floer theory. The minimality…
We prove that among the set of smooth diffeomorphisms there exists a $C^1$-open and dense subset of data such that either the Lagrange spectrum is finite and the dynamics is a Morse-Smale diffeomorphism or the Lagrange spectrum has positive…
This study examines the tree models of mildly dissipative diffeomorphisms on the disk $\D$. These models are one-dimensional dynamical systems with ergodic aperiodic data as well as some properties of the original dynamics. The focus of…
We introduce a class of infinitely renormalizable, unicritical diffeomorphisms of the disk (with a non-degenerate "critical point"). In this class of dynamical systems, we show that under renormalization, maps eventually become…
In this paper, we study dynamics of maps on quasi-graphs characterizing their invariant measures. In particular, we prove that every invariant measure of quasi-graph map with zero topological entropy has discrete spectrum. Additionally, we…
Let $M$ be a closed surface and $f$ a diffeomorphism of $M$. A diffeomorphism is said to permute a dense collection of domains, if the union of the domains are dense and the iterates of any one domain are mutually disjoint. In this note, we…
We present the proof of Berger and Turaev of Herman's positive entropy conjecture. In every neighbourhood of identity in the set of smooth symplectic diffeomorphisms of the 2-dimensional disc, there exists a diffeomorphism with positive…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact surface equipped with an area form. There is an long standing open question by Katok, which, in particular, asks whether every entropy-zero Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a surface lies in the $C^0$-closure of the…
A classical problem in dynamical systems is to measure the complexity of a map in terms of their orbits. One of the main tools we have to achieve this goal is entropy. However, many interesting families of dynamical systems have every…
In this paper, we study the dynamics of set-valued maps whose graphs are open and such that the image of each point is an open and connected set. Building upon the work of P. Duarte and M. Torres, who introduced and analyzed the…
Suppose f is a C^{1+\epsilon} surface diffeomorphism with positive topological entropy. For every positive \delta strictly smaller than the topological entropy of f we construct an invariant Borel set E such that (a) f|E has a countable…
We study a class of asymptotically entropy-expansive $C^1$ diffeomorphisms with dominated splitting on a compact manifold $M$, that satisfy the specification property. This class includes, in particular, transitive Anosov diffeomorphisms…
We study the dynamics of continuous maps on compact metric spaces containing a free interval (an open subset homeomorphic to the interval $(0,1)$). We provide a new proof of a result of M. Dirb\'ak, \v{L}. Snoha, V. \v{S}pitalsk\'y [Ergodic…
A homeomorphism of a compact metric space is {\em tight} provided every non-degenerate compact connected (not necessarily invariant) subset carries positive entropy. It is shown that every $C^{1+\alpha}$ diffeomorphism of a closed surface…
We prove that every $C^\infty$-smooth, area preserving diffeomorphism of the closed 2-disk having not more than one periodic point is the uniform limit of periodic $C^\infty$-smooth diffeomorphisms. In particular every smooth irrational…
We describe a general program for studying the dynamics of surjective endomorphisms of algebraic varieties that are amenable to techniques from the minimal model program. We obtain density results on the pre-periodic points of surjective…
We study the dynamics of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on convex symplectic manifolds. To this end we first establish the Piunikhin-Salamon-Schwarz isomorphism between the Floer homology and the Morse homology of such a manifold, and then use…
In the theory of surface diffeomorphisms relative to homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits, it is possible to compute a one-dimensional representative map for any irreducible isotopy class. The topological entropy of this graph representative…
For a compact $(2n+1)$-dimensional smooth manifold, let $\mu_M : B Diff_\partial (D^{2n+1}) \to B Diff (M)$ be the map that is defined by extending diffeomorphisms on an embedded disc by the identity. By a classical result of Farrell and…
