In genus two and higher, the fundamental group of a closed surface acts naturally on the curve complex of the surface with one puncture. Combining ideas from previous work of Kent--Leininger--Schleimer and Mitra, we construct a universal…

In the context of categories equipped with a structure of nullhomotopies, we introduce the notion of homotopy torsion theory. As special cases, we recover pretorsion theories as well as torsion theories in multi-pointed categories and in…

Let $f: S^2 \to S^2$ be a postcritically finite branched covering map without periodic branch points. We give necessary and sufficient algebraic conditions for $f$ to be homotopic, relative to its postcritical set, to an expanding map $g$.

In the early 1980's Thurston gave a topological characterization of rational maps whose critical points have finite iterated orbits (\cite{Th,DH1}): given a topological branched covering $F$ of the two sphere with finite critical orbits, if…

The construction of attractors of a dissipative difference equation is usually based on compactness assumptions. In this paper, we replace them with contractivity assumptions under which the pullback and forward attractors are identical. As…

We introduce a framework for pulling back Cartier modules and their associated invariants along regular $F$-finite morphisms. To achieve this, we construct a relative Cartier isomorphism and operator for an arbitrary regular $F$-finite map…

A connection is established between the soliton equations and curves moving in a three dimensional space $V_{3}$. The sign of the self-interacting terms of the soliton equations are related to the signature of $V_{3}$. It is shown that…

Our main theorem is that the pullback of an associated noncommutative vector bundle induced by an equivariant map of quantum principal bundles is a noncommutative vector bundle associated via the same finite-dimensional representation of…

We characterize which planar graphs arise as the pullback, under a rational map $r$, of an analytic Jordan curve passing through the critical values of $r$. We also prove that such pullbacks are dense within the collection of…

Let (X,d) be a tree (T) of hyperbolic metric spaces satisfying the quasi-isometrically embedded condition. Let $v$ be a vertex of $T$. Let $({X_v},d_v)$ denote the hyperbolic metric space corresponding to $v$. Then $i : X_v \rightarrow X$…

Let f be a germ of holomorphic self-map of C^2 at the origin O tangent to the identity, and with O as a non-dicritical isolated fixed point. A parabolic curve for f is a holomorphic f-invariant curve, with O on the boundary, attracted by O…

Let f be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of a projective space and f^n its iterate of order n. We prove that the pull-back by f^n of a generic (in the Zariski sense) hypersurface, properly normalized, converge to the Green current…

For stochastic Hindmarsh-Rose equations with additive noises in the study of neurodynamics, the longtime and global pullback dynamics on a two-dimensional bounded domain is explored in this work. Using the additive transformation and by the…

We give an overview of the theory of Cannon-Thurston maps which forms one of the links between the complex analytic and hyperbolic geometric study of Kleinian groups. We also briefly sketch connections to hyperbolic subgroups of hyperbolic…

We discuss the existence of pullback attractors for multivalued dynamical systems on metric spaces. Such attractors are shown to exist without any assumptions in terms of continuity of the solution maps, based only on minimality properties…

We show that the category of categories with pullbacks and pullback preserving functors is cartesian closed.

In this work we define and study the relations between Lorentzian Manifolds given by the diffeomorphisms which map causal future directed vectors onto causal future directed vectors. This class of diffeomorphisms, called proper causal…

Let C be an integral projective curve in any characteristic. Given an invertible sheaf L on C of degree 1, form the associated Abel map A_L : C -> P, which maps C into its compactified Jacobian scheme P, and form its pullback map A_L^* :…

We study rational self-maps of $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ whose critical points all have finite forward orbit. Thurston's rigidity theorem states that outside a single well-understood family, there are finitely many such maps over $\mathbb{C}$ of…

Let $B{ aut}_1X$ be the Dold-Lashof classifying space of orientable fibrations with fiber $X$. For a rationally weakly trivial map $f:X\to Y$, our strictly induced map $a_f: (Baut_1X)_0\to (Baut_1Y)_0$ induces a natural map from a…
