We prove that two topologically conjugate bi-critical circle maps whose signatures are the same, and whose renormalizations converge together exponentially fast in the $C^2$-topology, are $C^1$ conjugate.
Using Lavaurs maps and near-parabolic renormalization, we describe the degenerating geometry of external rays for quadratic polynomials when a periodic cycle becomes parabolic. We similarly describe the geometry of parameter rays for the…
An {\em attractor} is a transitive set of a flow to which all positive orbit close to it converges. An attractor is {\em singular-hyperbolic} if it has singularities (all hyperbolic) and is partially hyperbolic with volume expanding central…
This paper concerns the two-dimensional border-collision normal form -- a four-parameter family of piecewise-linear maps generalising the Lozi family and relevant to diverse applications. The normal form was recently shown to exhibit a…
A method of ``blocking'' triangulations that rests on the self-similarity feature of dynamically triangulated random manifolds is proposed. The method is used to define the renormalization group for random geometries. As an illustration,…
In this paper we generalise a celebrated result of Milnor that characterises whether a rotationally symmetric surface is parabolic or hyperbolic to the case of biharmonic functions.
We use a renormalisation operator R acting on a space of vector fields on the d-torus, d>1, to prove the existence of a submanifold of vector fields equivalent to constant. The result comes from the existence of a fixed point w of R which…
Inou and Shishikura provided a class of maps that is invariant by near-parabolic renormalization, and that has proved extremely useful in the study of the dynamics of quadratic polynomials. We provide here another construction, using more…
We employ Chen's conformal invariant quantity [8, Theorem 1] in combination with the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet formulas to obtain expressions for the renormalized area of asymptotically minimal hypersurfaces in the $(2n+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic…
Renormalizations can be considered as building blocks of complex dynamical systems. This phenomenon has been widely studied for iterations of polynomials of one complex variable. Concerning non-polynomial hyperbolic rational maps, a recent…
We present explicit descriptions of the decompositions of vertices of a hypercube graph with respect to its distinguished symmetric cycle.
We introduce curvature-adapted foliations of complex hyperbolic space and study some of their properties. Generalized pseudo-Einstein hypersurfaces of complex hyperbolic space are classified. Analogous results for curvature-adapted…
We construct pairs of non-isometric hyperbolic 3-orbifolds with the same topological type and volume. Topologically these orbifolds are mapping tori of pseudo-Anosov maps of the surface of genus 2, with singular locus a fibred (hyperbolic)…
The attractors of a dynamical system govern its typical long-term behaviour. The presence of many attractors is significant as it means the behaviour is heavily dependent on the initial conditions. To understand how large numbers of…
In this paper we describe trigonometry on the de Sitter surface. For that a characterization of geodesics is given, leading to various types of triangles. We define lengths and angles of these. Then, transferring the concept of polar…
We prove that polygonal billiards with contracting reflection laws exhibit hyperbolic attractors with countably many ergodic SRB measures. These measures are robust under small perturbations of the reflection law, and the tables for which…
In this paper, we study heterodimensional cycles of two-parameter families of 3-dimensional diffeomorphisms some element of which contains nondegenerate heterodimensional tangencies of the stable and unstable manifolds of two saddle points…
The collision of a fixed point with a switching manifold (or border) in a piecewise-smooth map can create many different types of invariant sets. This paper explores two techniques that, combined, establish a chaotic attractor is created in…
We relate renormalization in perturbative quantum field theory to the theory of limiting mixed Hodge structures using parametric representations of Feynman graphs.
A simple and transparent example of a non-autonomous flow system, with hyperbolic strange attractor is suggested. The system is constructed on a basis of two coupled van der Pol oscillators, the characteristic frequencies differ twice, and…
