Given a polynomial $f$ defined over a number field $K$, we make effective certain special cases of a conjecture of S. Ih, on the finiteness of $f$-preperiodic points which are $S$-integral with respect to a fixed non-preperiodic point…
Let $M$ be a model set meeting two simple conditions: (1) the internal space $H$ is a product of $R^n$ and a finite group, and (2) the window $W$ is a finite union of disjoint polyhedra. Then any point pattern with finite local complexity…
We prove the Landau-Ginzburg Mirror Symmetry Conjecture at the level of (orbifolded) Frobenius algebras for a large class of invertible singularities, including arbitrary sums of loops and Fermats with arbitrary symmetry groups.…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the realization of mapping schemata as post-critically finite polynomials, or more generally, as post-critically finite polynomial maps from a finite union of copies of the complex…
For complex quadratic polynomials, the topology of the Julia set and the dynamics are understood from another perspective by considering the Hausdorff dimension of biaccessing angles and the core entropy: the topological entropy on the…
We introduce polynomials that represent general degeneracy loci for maps of vector bundles. These polynomials specialize to the known classical and quantum forms of single and double Schubert polynomials. This is the final version of the…
Let $f_n$ be a random polynomial of degree $n$ with i.i.d. mean-zero and finite variance random coefficients. It is well known that the roots of $f_n$ cluster uniformly around the unit circle as $n$ grows large. We give a simple and…
It is shown that the boundary of the Mandelbrot set $M$ has Hausdorff dimension two and that for a generic $c \in \bM$, the Julia set of $z \mapsto z^2+c$ also has Hausdorff dimension two. The proof is based on the study of the bifurcation…
We give a combinatorial definition of "core entropy" for quadratic polynomials as the growth exponent of the number of certain precritical points in the Julia set (those that separate the $\alpha$ fixed point from its negative). This notion…
According to Sullivan, a space ${\cal E}$ of unimodal maps with the same combinatorics (modulo smooth conjugacy) should be treated as an infinitely-dimensional Teichm\"{u}ller space. This is a basic idea in Sullivan's approach to the…
We define notions of local topological convergence and local geometric convergence for embedded graphs in $\mathbb{R}^n,$ and study their properties. The former is related to Benjamini-Schramm convergence, and the latter to weak convergence…
The main purpose is to show that Feigenbaum delta constant is much more universal than believed. The paper is mainly devoted to period-doubling processes in families in one parameter of endomorphisms of the interval and consider…
We show that the Feigenbaum-Cvitanovic equation can be interpreted as a linearizing equation, and the domain of analyticity of the Feigenbaum fixed point of renormalization as a basin of attraction. There is a natural decomposition of this…
Given a critically periodic quadratic map with no secondary renormalizations, we introduce the notion of $Q$-recurrent quadratic polynomials. We show that the pieces of the principal nest of a $Q$-recurrent map $f_c$ converge in shape to…
First, for the family P_{n,c}(z) = z^n + c, we show that the geometric limit of the Mandelbrot sets M_n(P) as n tends to infinity exists and is the closed unit disk, and that the geometric limit of the Julia sets J(P_{n,c}) as n tends to…
We establish connections between: the maximum likelihood degree (ML-degree) for linear concentration models, the algebraic degree of semidefinite programming (SDP), and Schubert calculus for complete quadrics. We prove a conjecture by…
We consider the "Mandelbrot set" $M$ for pairs of complex linear maps, introduced by Barnsley and Harrington in 1985 and studied by Bousch, Bandt and others. It is defined as the set of parameters $\lambda$ in the unit disk such that the…
We address the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture of Morton and Silverman in the case of unicritical polynomials, assuming a generalization of the $abc$-conjecture. For unicritical polynomials of degree at least five, we require only the…
For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…
Answering a question posed by Adam Epstein, we show that the collection of conjugacy classes of polynomials admitting a parabolic fixed point and at most one infinite critical orbit is a set of bounded height in the relevant moduli space.…
