We describe dynamical properties of a map $\mathfrak{F}$ defined on the space of rational functions. The fixed points of $\mathfrak{F}$ are classified and the long time behavior of a subclass is described in terms of Eulerian polynomials.

In this article, we show that every rational map whose multipliers all lie in a given number field is a power map, a Chebyshev map or a Latt\`{e}s map. This strengthens a conjecture by Milnor concerning rational maps with integer…

The "carries" when n random numbers are added base b form a Markov chain with an "amazing" transition matrix determined by Holte. This same Markov chain occurs in following the number of descents or rising sequences when n cards are…

In this article, we prove that every unicritical polynomial map that has only rational multipliers is either a power map or a Chebyshev map. This provides some evidence in support of a conjecture by Milnor concerning rational maps whose…

This paper presents a connection between Galois points and rational functions over a finite field with small value sets. This paper proves that the defining polynomial of any plane curve admitting two Galois points is an irreducible…

These notes are designed to offer some (perhaps new) codicils to related work, a list of problems and conjectures seeking (preferably) combinatorial proofs. The main items are Eulerian polynomials and hook/contents of Young diagram, mostly…

The paper contains the proof, in dimension 2, of a conjecture of R. G. Douglas and V. Paulsen concerning the characterization of the ideals of polynomials which are closed in the relative topology induced by the Hardy space of the polydisk.

The logarithmic multiplicative group is a proper group object in logarithmic schemes, which morally compactifies the usual multiplicative group. We study the structure of the stacks of logarithmic maps from rational curves to this…

We prove a generalization of the Kolmogorov-Barzdin theorem for maps from simplicial complexes into Euclidean space. Along the way we introduce the notion of sparse maps and discuss maps from simplicial complexes with controlled 1-waist.

The number of ``carries'' when $n$ random integers are added forms a Markov chain [23]. We show that this Markov chain has the same transition matrix as the descent process when a deck of $n$ cards is repeatedly riffle shuffled. This gives…

A general theory is provided delivering convergence of maximal cyclically monotone mappings containing the supports of coupling measures of sequences of pairs of possibly random probability measures on Euclidean space. The theory is based…

We obtain a measure theoretical characterization of polynomials among rational functions on $\mathbb{P}^1$, which generalizes a theorem of Lopes. Our proof applies both classical and dynamically weighted potential theory.

We prove that the convergence of the real and imaginary parts of the logarithm of the characteristic polynomial of unitary Brownian motion toward Gaussian free fields on the cylinder, as the matrix dimension goes to infinity, holds in…

Given a polynomial or a rational map f we associate to it a space of maps. We introduce local coordinates in this space, which are essentially the set of critical values of the map. Then we consider an arbitrary periodic orbit of f with…

We study a generalization of Holte's amazing matrix, the transition probability matrix of the Markov chains of the 'carries' in a non-standard numeration system. The stationary distributions are explicitly described by the numbers which can…

The chain relation, due to Conley, and the strong chain relation, due to Easton, are well studied for continuous maps on compact metric spaces. Following Fathi and Pageault, we use barrier functions to generalize the theory to general…

We study piecewise linear Markov maps, with countable Markov partitions, inspired by a problem of the Mikl\'os Schweitzer competition of the J\'anos Bolyai Mathematical Society in 2022. We introduce $\ell$-Markov partitions and apply ideas…

The article focuses on three different notions of polynomiality for maps of modules. In addition to the polynomial maps studied by Eilenberg and Mac Lane and the strict polynomial maps ("lois polynomes") considered by Roby, we introduce…

We compute new polynomials with Galois group $M_{11}$ over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$. These polynomials stem from various families of covers of $\mathbb{P}^1\mathbb{C}$ ramified over at least 4 points. Each of these families has features that make a…

In this paper, we introduce new classes of functions that extend the known classes of functions of complex variable, such as entire functions, meromorphic functions, rational functions and polynomial functions and take values in the set of…
