Given a polynomial diffeomorphism f: C^2 -> C^2 there is a set $J_f\subset{\bf C}^2$ which we call the Julia set of f. The set $J_f\subset C^2$ plays the role of the Julia set $J\subset{\bf C}$ for a polynomial map of C. In the study of…

Let $(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty$ be a $d$-th order linear recurrence sequence having polynomial characteristic roots, one of which has degree strictly greater than the others. Moreover, let $m\geq 2$ be a given integer. We ask for…

For a post-critically finite hyperbolic rational map $f$, we show that its Julia set $\mathcal{J}_f$ has Ahlfors-regular conformal dimension one if and only if $f$ is a crochet map, i.e., there is an $f$-invariant connected graph $G$…

Hubbard trees are invariant trees connecting the points of the critical orbits of postcritically finite polynomials. Douady and Hubbard \cite{Orsay} introduced these trees and showed that they encode the essential information of Julia sets…

We use Bowen's definition of topological entropy and Ahlfors five islands theorem, as well as the theory of polynomial-like mappings, to show that the topological entropy of any entire transcendental function is infinity. In addition the…

A cubic polynomial $P$ with a non-repelling fixed point $b$ is said to be \emph{immediately renormalizable} if there exists a (connected) quadratic-like invariant filled Julia set $K^*$ such that $b\in K^*$. In that case exactly one…

Degree-$d$-invariant laminations of the disk model the dynamical action of a degree-$d$ polynomial; such a lamination defines an equivalence relation on $S^1$ that corresponds to dynamical rays of an associated polynomial landing at the…

We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…

Let $\cal{A}$ be the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb{H}$ or octonions $\mathbb{O}$. In this manuscript a new proof is given, based on ideas of Cauchy and D' Alembert, of the fact that an ordinary polynomial $f(t) \in {\cal{A}}\, [t]$ has a…

In this article, we study the global dynamics of Halley's method applied to complex polynomials. Specifically, we analyze the structure and connectivity of the Julia set of this method. The convergence behavior, symmetry properties, and…

A relational structure is a core, if all its endomorphisms are embeddings. This notion is important for computational complexity classification of constraint satisfaction problems. It is a fundamental fact that every finite structure has a…

Let G be a group and f be an endomorphism of G. A subgroup H of G is called f-inert if the meet of Hf and H has finite index in the image Hf. The subgroups that are f-inert for all inner automorphisms of G are widely known and studied in…

We study the closure of the cubic Principal Hyperbolic Domain and its intersection $\mathcal{P}_\lambda$ with the slice $\mathcal{F}_\lambda$ of the space of all cubic polynomials with fixed point $0$ defined by the multiplier $\lambda$ at…

The algebraic entropy h, defined for endomorphisms f of abelian groups G, measures the growth of the trajectories of non-empty finite subsets F of G with respect to f. We show that this growth can be either polynomial or exponential. The…

We extend the concept of a Hubbard tree, well established and useful in the theory of polynomial dynamics, to the dynamics of transcendental entire functions. We show that Hubbard trees in the strict traditional sense, as invariant compact…

A definition for the entanglement entropy in a gauge theory was given recently in arXiv:1501.02593. Working on a spatial lattice, it involves embedding the physical state in an extended Hilbert space obtained by taking the tensor product of…

Let $f$ be a post-critically finite endomorphism (PCF map for short) on $\mathbb{P}^2$, let $J_1$ denote the Julia set and let $J_2$ denote the support of the measure of maximal entropy. In this paper we show that: 1. $J_1\setminus J_2$ is…

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 $P$ be a polynomial with a connected Julia set $J$. We use continuum theory to show that it admits a \emph{finest monotone map $\ph$ onto a locally connected continuum $J_{\sim_P}$}, i.e. a monotone map $\ph:J\to J_{\sim_P}$ such that…
