When G denotes a graph, the unlabeled subgraph obtained by deleting a vertex from G is called a card of G and the collection of all cards of G is the deck of G. A graph having the same deck as G is called a hypomorph of G. A graph is called…
We show the following result: If $X_0$ is an affine surface over a field $K$ and $f, g$ are two loxodromic automorphisms with an orbit meeting infinitely many times, then $f$ and $g$ must share a common iterate. The proof uses the…
Let $f, g:S^1\to S^1$ be two $C^3$ critical homeomorphisms of the circle with the same irrational rotation number and the same (finite) number of critical points, all of which are assumed to be non-flat, of power-law type. In this paper we…
Given a number field $k$, and a quadratic rational function $f(x) \in k(x)$, the associated arboreal representation of the absolute Galois group of $k$ is a subgroup of the automorphism group of a regular rooted binary tree. Boston and…
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…
Let $D = d_1, d_2, \ldots, d_n$ and $F = f_1, f_2,\ldots, f_n$ be two sequences of positive integers. We consider the following decision problems: is there a $i)$ multigraph, $ii)$ loopless multigraph, $iii)$ simple graph, $iv)$ connected…
The dynamics of all quadratic Newton maps of rational functions are completely described. The Julia set of such a map is found to be either a Jordan curve or totally disconnected. It is proved that no Newton map with degree at least three…
In this paper, we study the relation between two dynamical systems (V,f) and (V,g) with f. g = g . f. As an application, we show that an endomorphism (respectively a polynomial map with Zariski dense, of bounded Pre(f) has only finitely…
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic morphism f with an infinite postcritical orbit over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a…
Let X be a normal projective variety defined over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We study the sequence of intermediate degrees of the iterates of a dominant rational selfmap of X, recovering former results by…
For a finite dimensional vector space equipped with a $\mathbb C$-algebra structure, one can define rational maps using the algebraic structure. In this paper, we describe the growth of the degree sequences for this type of rational maps.
Answering a question asked by Hsia and Tucker in their paper on the finiteness of greatest common divisors of iterates of polynomials, we prove that if $f, g \in \mathbb{C}(X)$ are compositionally independent rational functions and $c \in…
In this paper two important aspects related to Caputo fractional-order discrete variant of a class of maps defined on the complex plane, are analytically and numerically revealed: attractors symmetry-broken induced by the fractional-order…
Let S, T be surfaces in P3. Suppose that S intersect T is set-theoretically a smooth curve C of degree d and genus g. Suppose that S and T have no common singular points. Then if C is not a complete intersection, then deg(S), deg(T) < 2d^4.…
A well known conjecture asserts that a cubic fourfold X is rational if it has a cohomologically associated K3 surface. G.Ouchi proved that if X admits a finite group G of symplectic automorphisms, whose order is different from 2, then X has…
Let G be a group. The intersection graph G(G) of G is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper nontrivial subgroups of G; and there is an edge between two distinct…
For a rational polynomial $f$ and rational numbers $c, u$, we put $f_c(x):=f(x)+c$, and consider the Zsigmondy set $\mathcal{Z}(f_c,u)$ associated to the sequence $\{f_c^n(u)-u\}_{n\geq 0}$, where $f_c^n$ is the $n$-st iteration of $f_c$.…
For each integer $m \geq 1$, we construct a finite-dimensional family of rational maps, given by Blaschke-type products, whose restriction to the unit circle consists of $2m$-multimodal maps. We show that every post-critically finite…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, let X=P^1\times A^N and let f be a rational endomorphism of X given by (x,y)--->(g(x), A(x)y), where g is a rational function, while A is an N-by-N matrix with entries in k(x). We…
We find all quadratic post-critically finite (PCF) rational maps defined over the rationals. We describe an algorithm to search for possibly PCF maps. Using the algorithm, we eliminate all but twelve rational maps, all of which are…
