Motivated by the study of unlikely intersection in the moduli space of rational maps, we initiate our investigation on algebraic dynamics for families of regular polynomial skew products in this article. Our goals are threefold. (1) We…
In this paper, we give an example of an autoequivalence with positive categorical entropy (in the sense of Dimitrov, Haiden, Katzarkov and Kontsevich) for any surface containing a (-2)-curve. Then we show that this equivalence gives another…
We consider a family, depending on a parameter, of multiplicative extensions of an elliptic curve with complex multiplications. They form a 3-dimensional variety $G$ which admits a dense set of special curves, known as Ribet curves, which…
We generalize the first author's construction of intersection spaces to the case of stratified pseudomanifolds of stratification depth 1 with twisted link bundles, assuming that each link possesses an equivariant Moore approximation for a…
For a large class of isotrivial rational elliptic surfaces (with section), we show that the set of rational points is dense for the Zariski topology, by carefully studying variations of root numbers among the fibers of these surfaces. We…
We prove that a "positive probability" subset of the boundary of the set of hyperbolic (Axiom A) surface diffeomorphisms with no cycles $\mathcal{H}$ is constituted by Kupka-Smale diffeomorphisms: all periodic points are hyperbolic and…
We study the neutral periodic points of the Markov-Dyck shifts of finite strongly connected directed graphs. Under certain hypothesis on the structure of the graphs we show, that the topological conjugacy of their Markov-Dyck shifts implies…
Intersections of thick, plane SU(2) center vortices are characterized by the topological charge |Q|=1/2. We compare such intersections with the distribution of zeromodes of the Dirac operator in the fundamental and adjoint representation…
The interaction between two chemically identical charge-regulated surfaces is studied using the classical density functional theory. In contrast to common expectations and assumptions, under certain realistic conditions we find a…
We show that smooth well formed weighted complete intersections have finite automorphism groups, with several obvious exceptions.
The idea of a finite collection of closed sets having "strongly regular intersection" at a given point is crucial in variational analysis. We show that this central theoretical tool also has striking algorithmic consequences. Specifically,…
In this paper, we study the orbit intersection problem for the linear space and the algebraic group in positive characteristic. Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic and let $\Phi_1, \Phi_{2}: K^d…
We consider the Novikov problem, namely, the problem of describing the level lines of quasiperiodic functions on the plane, for a special class of potentials that have important applications in the physics of two-dimensional systems.…
We derive a characterization of the complex projective K3 surfaces which have automorphisms of positive entropy in term of their N\'eron-Severi lattices. Along the way, we classify the projective K3 surfaces of zero entropy with infinite…
We compare real and complex dynamics for automorphisms of rational surfaces that are obtained by lifting \chg{some} quadratic birational maps of the plane. In particular, we show how to exploit the existence of an invariant cubic curve to…
A surface automorphism is strongly irreducible if every essential simple closed curve in the surface has nontrivial geometric intersection with its image. We show that a three-manifold admits only finitely many inequivalent surface bundle…
We explore systems of polynomial equations where we seek complex solutions with absolute value 1. Geometrically, this amounts to understanding intersections of algebraic varieties with tori -- Cartesian powers of the unit circle. We study…
We determine the geometric structure of a minimal projective threefold having two `independent and commutative' automorphisms of positive topological entropy, and generalize this result to higher-dimensional smooth minimal pairs (X, G). As…
In this paper, we study arithmetic dynamics in arbitrary characteristic, in particular in positive characteristic. We generalise some basic facts on arithmetic degree and canonical height in positive characteristic. As applications, we…
If $X$ is a rational surface without nonzero holomorphic vector field and $f$ is an automorphism of $X$, we study in several examples the Zariski tangent space of the local deformation space of the pair $(X, f)$.
