Let $f$ be a rational map with degree at least two. We prove that $f$ has at least $2$ disjoint and infinite critical orbits in the Julia set if it has a Herman ring. This result is sharp in the following sense: there exists a cubic…

In recent work on holomorphic maps that are symmetric under certain complex reflection groups---generated by complex reflections through a set of hyperplanes, the author announced a general conjecture related to reflection groups. The claim…

We study critical orbits and bifurcations within the moduli space of quadratic rational maps on $\mathbb{P}^1$. We focus on the family of curves, $Per_1(\lambda)$ for $\lambda$ in $\mathbb{C}$, defined by the condition that each $f\in…

In this paper, we consider rational maps whose source is a product of two subvarieties, each one being embedded in a projective space. Our main objective is to investigate birationality criteria for such maps. First, a general criterion is…

We discuss when two rational functions $f$ and $g$ can have the same measure of maximal entropy. The polynomial case was completed by (Beardon, Levin, Baker-Eremenko,Schmidt-Steinmetz, etc., 1980s-90s), and we address the rational case…

A rational map $f:\widehat{\mathbb{C}}\to\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ on the Riemann sphere $\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ is called critically fixed if each critical point of $f$ is fixed under $f$. In this article, we study the properties of a…

We prove that if $f$ and $g$ are postcritically finite rational maps whose Julia sets $\mathcal{J}(f), \mathcal{J}(g)$, respectively, are Sierpi\'nski carpets, and if $\xi$ is a quasiregular map of the Riemann sphere $\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$…

The critical loci of a map $f:X\to Y$ between smooth schemes over a field $k$ are the locally closed subschemes $\Sigma^i(f)\subseteq X$ where the differential of $f$ has constant rank. We prove that if $f : X\to \mathbb A^r$ is the general…

A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…

Two given orbits of a minimal circle homeomorphism $f$ are said to be geometrically equivalent if there exists a quasisymmetric circle homeomorphism identifying both orbits and commuting with $f$. By a well-known theorem due to Herman and…

Motivated by a uniform boundedness conjecture of Morton and Silverman, we study the graphs of pre-periodic points for maps in three families of dynamical systems, namely the collections of rational functions of degree two having a periodic…

Let $Rat_d$ denote the space of holomorphic self-maps of ${\bf P}^1$ of degree $d\geq 2$, and $\mu_f$ the measure of maximal entropy for $f\in Rat_d$. The map of measures $f\mapsto\mu_f$ is known to be continuous on $Rat_d$, and it is shown…

If $R$ is a rational map, the Main Result is a uniformization Theorem for the space of decompositions of the iterates of $R$. Secondly, we show that Fatou conjecture holds for decomposable rational maps.

Let $G$ a bipartite graph with vertex bipartition $\{A,B\}$ and let $m=|E(G)|$. An $(A,B)$-uniformly ordered labeling of $G$ is a labeling $f\colon V\rightarrow [0,2m]$ which, among other conditions, requires that there exists $\lambda\in…

In recent work [Nien et al. 2016], the authors enumerated a classification of quadratic maps of the plane according to their critical sets and images. It is straightforward to show that quadratic maps which are affinely map equivalent are…

It is shown that if a proper holomorphic map $f: \mathbb C^n \to \mathbb C^N$, $1<n\le N$, sends a pseudoconvex real analytic hypersurface of finite type into another such hypersurface, then any $n-1$ dimensional component of the critical…

We show that in the family of degree $d\geq 2$ rational maps of the Riemann sphere, the closure of strictly postcritically finite maps contains a (relatively) Baire generic subset of maps displaying maximal non-statistical behavior: for a…

A completely stable multicurve of a post-critically finite rational map induces a combinatorial decomposition. The projections of the small Julia sets are immersed within the original Julia set. We prove that two small Julia sets are…

Both bi-harmonic map and $f$-harmonic map have nice physical motivation and applications. In this paper, by combination of these two harmonic maps, we introduce and study $f$-bi-harmonic maps as the critical points of the $f$-bi-energy…

We perform the asymptotic enumeration of two classes of rooted maps on orientable surfaces of genus g: m-hypermaps and m-constellations. For m=2, they correspond respectively to maps with even face degrees and bipartite maps. We obtain…
