This paper completely classifies which numbers arise as the topological entropy associated to postcritically finite self-maps of the unit interval. Specifically, a positive real number h is the topological entropy of a postcritically finite…
Let X be a complex projective manifold and f a dominating rational map from X onto X. We show that the topological entropy h(f) of f is bounded from above by the logarithm of its maximal dynamical degree.
Let $\mathbf{f} = \left(f_1, \dots, f_p\right) $ be a polynomial tuple in $\mathbb{Q}[z_1, \dots, z_n]$ and let $d = \max_{1 \leq i \leq p} \deg f_i$. We consider the problem of computing the set of asymptotic critical values of the…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the symbolic dynamics of a Lorenz map to be fully embedded in the symbolic dynamics of a piecewise continuous interval map are given. As an application of this result, we describe a new algorithm for…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of 1-parameter subgroups with respect to Hofer's metric when the underlying symplectic manifold is an open surface of infinite area. We prove that, depending on the topology of the level sets of the…
We study a class of asymptotically entropy-expansive $C^1$ diffeomorphisms with dominated splitting on a compact manifold $M$, that satisfy the specification property. This class includes, in particular, transitive Anosov diffeomorphisms…
In connection with the Entropy Conjecture it is known that the topological entropy of a continuous graph map is bounded from below by the spectral radius of the induced map on the first homology group. We show that in the case of a…
Let f be a unimodal map of the interval with critical point c. If the orbit of c is not dense then most points in lim{[0,1],f} have neighborhoods that are homeomorphic with the product of a Cantor set and an open arc. The points without…
Motivated by the question of how generic inflation is, I study the time-evolution of topological surfaces in an inhomogeneous cosmology with positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$. If matter fields satisfy the Weak Energy Condition,…
We show that every intermediate $\beta$-transformation is topologically conjugate to a greedy $\beta$-transformation with a hole at zero, and provide a counterexample illustrating that the correspondence is not one-to-one. This…
We study the dynamics of the exponential maps $E_{\lambda}: \mathbb{C} \longrightarrow \mathbb{C}$ defined by $E_{\lambda}(z) = \lambda e^z$, where $\lambda > \frac{1}{e}$. We prove that for itineraries of a certain form, the set of all…
We study the holographic construction of timelike entanglement entropy (tEE) in black hole backgrounds in Lorentzian geometries. The holographic tEE is realized through extremal surfaces consisting of spacelike and timelike branches that…
In this paper, we prove that an expanding Thurston map $f\colon S^2 \rightarrow S^2$ is asymptotically $h$-expansive if and only if it has no periodic critical points, and that no expanding Thurston map is $h$-expansive. As a consequence,…
We show that for the standard map family, for all values of the parameter, except one, the mapping has positive topological entropy. The main tool is the following result. Let $S$ be a compact connected orientable surface and $f:S…
Given a compact geodesic space $X$ we apply the fundamental group and alternatively the first homology group functor to the corresponding Rips or \v{C}ech filtration of $X$ to obtain what we call a persistence. This paper contains the…
The Sinai billiard map $T$ on the two-torus, i.e., the periodic Lorentz gas, is a discontinuous map. Assuming finite horizon, we propose a definition $h_*$ for the topological entropy of $T$. We prove that $h_*$ is not smaller than the…
A classical question in quantitative topology is to bound the mapping degree $\operatorname{deg}(f)$ in terms of its Lipchitz constant $\operatorname{Lip}(f)$. For a closed, oriented manifold $M$, the flexible exponent $\alpha(M)$ is the…
We study the non-wandering set of $C^3$ contracting Lorenz maps $f$ with negative Schwarzian derivative. We show that if $f$ doesn't have attracting periodic orbit, then there is a unique topological attractor. Precisely, there is a…
The eigenvalues of Toeplitz matrices $T_{n}(f)$ with a real-valued symbol $f$, satisfying some conditions and tracing out a simple loop over the interval $[-\pi,\pi]$, are known to admit an asymptotic expansion with the form \[…
For $x\in (0,1)$, let $\langle d_1(x),d_2(x),d_3(x),\cdots \rangle$ be the Engel series expansion of $x$. Denote by $\lambda(x)$ the exponent of convergence of the sequence $\{d_n(x)\}$, namely \begin{equation*} \lambda(x)= \inf\left\{s…
