Let $f$ be a holomorphic map of $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $d\geq 2$, let $T$ be its Green current and $\mu=T\wedge T$ be its equilibrium measure. We give a new proof of a theorem due to Dujardin asserting that $\mu \ll…

The emphasis of this course is on pluripotential methods in complex dynamics in higher dimension. They are based on the compactness properties of plurisubharmonic functions and on the theory of positive closed currents. Applications of…

We develop a new method, based on pluripotential theory, to study the transfer (Perron-Frobenius) operator induced on $\mathbb P^k = \mathbb P^k (\mathbb C)$ by a holomorphic endomorphism and a suitable continuous weight. This method allows…

Let $f$ be an endomorphism of $\mathbb{CP}^k$ and $\nu$ be an $f$-invariant measure with positive Lyapunov exponents $(\lambda_1,\...,\lambda_k)$. We prove a lower bound for the pointwise dimension of $\nu$ in terms of the degree of $f$,…

Let $f$ be a polynomial-like map with dominant topological degree $d_t\geq 2$ and let $d_{k-1}<d_t$ be its dynamical degree of order $k-1$. We show that the support of every ergodic measure whose measure-theoretic entropy is strictly larger…

Let $f$ be a polynomial automorphism of ${\Bbb C}^k$ of degree $\lambda$, whose rational extension to ${\Bbb P}^k$ maps the hyperplane at infinity to a single point. Given any positive closed current $S$ on ${\Bbb P}^k$ of bidegree (1,1),…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb{P}^2$, let $T$ be its Green current and $\mu=T\wedge T$ be its equilibrium measure. We prove that if $\mu$ has a local product structure with respect to $T$ then (an iterate of) $f$…

This paper is devoted to the study of the thermodynamic formalism for a class of real multimodal maps. This class contains, but it is larger than, Collet-Eckmann. For a map in this class, we prove existence and uniqueness of equilibrium…

LLet $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^ 2$ of degree $d \geq 2$. We estimate the local directional dimensions of closed positive currents $S$ with respect to ergodic dilating measures $\nu$. We infer several applications. The…

We establish a formula for the sum of the Lyapounov exponents of an holomorphic endomorphism of ${\bf P}^k$. For an holomorphic family of such endomorphisms we define the {\em bifurcation current} as $dd^cL$ and show that it vanishes when…

Under a natural assumption on the dynamical degrees, we prove that the Green currents associated to any H\'enon-like map in any dimension have H\"older continuous super-potentials, i.e., give H\"older continuous linear functionals on…

Let f be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of P^k having an attracting set A. We show that, under some natural assumptions, A supports a unique invariant positive closed current \tau, of the right bidegree and of mass 1. Moreover,…

We introduce a notion of stability for equilibrium measures in holomorphic families of endomorphisms of CP(k) and prove that it is equivalent to the stability of repelling cycles and equivalent to the existence of some measurable…

Convergence to equilibrium of underdamped Langevin dynamics is studied under general assumptions on the potential $U$ allowing for singularities. By modifying the direct approach to convergence in $L^2$ pioneered by F. H\'erau and…

In this paper, we discuss the equidistribution phenomena for holomorphic endomorphisms over $\mathbb{P}^k$ in the case of bidegree $(p,p)$ with $1<p<k$. We prove that if $f:\mathbb{P}^k\to\mathbb{P}^k$ is a holomorphic endomorphism of…
