Let $f$ be a transcendental entire function of finite order which has an attracting periodic point $z_0$ of period at least $2$. Suppose that the set of singularities of the inverse of $f$ is finite and contained in the component $U$ of the…

Let $L:[0,1]\setminus\{d\}\rightarrow [0,1]$ be a one-dimensional Lorenz like expanding map ($d$ is the point of discontinuity), $\mathcal{P}=\{ (0,d),(d,1) \}$ be a partition of $[0,1]$ and $C^{\alpha}([0,1],\mathcal{P})$ the set of…

We study high-dimensional Laplace-type integrals $I(\lambda):=(\lambda/2\pi)^{d/2}\int_{\mathbb R^d} g(x)e^{-\lambda f(x)}dx$ in the regime where both $d$ and $\lambda$ are large. Existing rigorous Laplace-expansion results in growing…

Let A be a bounded subset of IR^d. We give an upper bound on the volume of the symmetric difference of A and f(A) where f is a translation, a rotation, or the composition of both, a rigid motion. The volume is measured by the d-dimensional…

For a real number $0<\lambda<2$, we introduce a transformation $T_\lambda$ naturally associated to expansion in $\lambda$-continued fraction, for which we also give a geometrical interpretation. The symbolic coding of the orbits of…

This paper is an interval dynamics counterpart of three theories founded earlier by the authors, S. Smirnov and others in the setting of the iteration of rational maps on the Riemann sphere: the equivalence of several notions of non-uniform…

We introduce {\it (W')-specification} in terms of language decompositions of subshifts, and show that any recurrence set of a subshift with this property has full Hausdorff dimension. Our main result applies to a wide class of subshifts…

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…

In this article, we give two refinements of Franks' theorem: For orientation and area preserving homeomorphisms of the closed or open annulus, the existence of $k$-periodic orbits ($(k,n_0)=1$) forces the existence of infinitely many…

This note presents an example of an increasing sequence $(\lambda_l)_{l=1}^\infty$ such that the maximal operators associated to normalized discrete spherical convolution averages \[ \sup_{l\geq…

Let $X = G/\Gamma$ be a quotient of a real Lie group by a non-uniform lattice. Consider a one-parameter subgroup $F$ of $G$ that is $\operatorname{Ad}$-diagonalizable over $\mathbb{C}$ and whose action on $(X,m_X)$ is mixing. In this…

This survey article is concerned with the study of bifurcations of piecewise-smooth maps. We review the literature in circle maps and quasi-contractions and provide paths through this literature to prove sufficient conditions for the…

Let $\Lambda$ be the limit set of a conformal dynamical system, i.e. a Kleinian group acting on either finite- or infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space, a conformal iterated function system, or a rational function. We give an easily…

For an infinite iterated function system $\mathbf{f}$ on $[0,1]$ with an attractor $\Lambda(\mathbf{f})$ and for an infinite subset $D\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, consider the set \[ \mathbb E(\mathbf{f},D)= \{ x \in \Lambda(\mathbf{f}):…

In this paper we prove that if $\phi:\C\to\C$ is a $K$-quasiconformal map, with $K>1$, and $E\subset \C$ is a compact set contained in a ball $B$, then $$\frac{\dot C_{\frac{2K}{2K+1},\frac{2K+1}{K+1}}(E)}{\diam(B)^{\frac2{K+1}}} \geq…

For any transitive piecewise monotonic map for which the set of periodic measures is dense in the set of ergodic invariant measures (such as monotonic mod one transformations and piecewise monotonic maps with two monotonic pieces), we show…

We consider the escaping parameters in the family $\beta\wp_\Lambda$, i.e. these parameters for which the orbits of critical values of $\beta\wp_\Lambda$ approach infinity, where $\wp_\Lambda$ is the Weierstrass function. Unlike to the…

We approximate any portion of any orbit of the full diagonal group $A$ in the space of unimodular lattices in $\RR^n$ using a fixed proportion of a compact $A$-orbit. Using those approximations for the appropriate sequence of orbits, we…

Suppose that G is a compact Abelian topological group, m is the Haar measure on G and f is a measurable function. Given (n_k), a strictly monotone increasing sequence of integers we consider the nonconventional ergodic/Birkhoff averages…

For a real analytic periodic function $\phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}^d$, an integer $b \ge 2$ and $\lambda\in(1/b,1)$, we prove that the box dimension and the Hausdorff dimension of the graph of the Weierstrass function…
