The no invariant line fields conjecture is one of the main outstanding problems in traditional complex dynamics. In this paper we consider non-autonomous iteration where one works with compositions of sequences of polynomials with suitable…
In this note, we give an elementary proof of the absence of invariant line fields on the conical Julia set of an analytic function of one variable. This proof applies not only to rational as well as transcendental meromorphic functions…
We prove that a polynomial Julia set which is a finitely irreducible continuum is either an arc or an indecomposable continuum. For the more general case of rational functions, we give a topological model for the dynamics when the Julia set…
We study how the field of definition of a rational function changes under iteration. We provide a complete classification of polynomials with the property that the field of definition of one of their iterates drops in degree (over a given…
We explain the exact meaning of a statement we made in a previous paper on invariants, namely that a complex-valued function of the data of the functional equation of an $L$-function is an invariant if and only if it is stable under the…
The Fatou-Julia theory for rational functions has been extended both to transcendental meromorphic functions and more recently to several different types of quasiregular mappings in higher dimensions. We extend the iterative theory to…
We analyze the infinitesimal effect of holomorphic perturbations of the dynamics of a structurally stable rational map on a neighborhood of its Julia set. This implies some restrictions on the behavior of critical points.
Let X be any finite classical group defined over a finite field of characteristic p>0. In this paper we determine the fields of rational invariants for the Sylow p-subgroups of X, acting on the natural module. In particular we prove that…
Toric ideals to hierarchical models are invariant under the action of a product of symmetric groups. Taking the number of factors, say m, into account, we introduce and study invariant filtrations and their equivariant Hilbert series. We…
Let f be a transcendental meromorphic function. Suppose that the finite part of the postsingular set of f is bounded, that f has no recurrent critical points or wandering domains, and that the degree of pre-poles of f is uniformly bounded.…
We study unirational algebraic varieties and the fields of rational functions on them. We show that after adding a finite number of variables some of these fields admit an infinitely transitive model. The latter is an algebraic variety with…
We investigate the connection between the instability of rational maps and summability methods applied to the spectrum of a critical point on the Julia set of a given rational map.
In this paper, we prove that a rational map with a Cantor Julia set carries no invariant line fields on its Julia set. It follows that a structurally stable rational map with a Cantor Julia set is hyperbolic.
We consider finite-dimensional complex Lie algebras. We generalize the concept of Lie derivations via certain complex parameters and obtain various Lie and Jordan operator algebras as well as two one-parametric sets of linear operators.…
If $f$ is a transcendental entire function with only algebraic singularities we calculate the Ruelle operator of $f$. Moreover, we prove both (i) if $f$ has a summable critical point, then $f$ is not structurally stable under certain…
We prove that the Julia set of a rational function $f$ is computable in polynomial time, assuming that the postcritical set of $f$ does not contain any critical points or parabolic periodic orbits.
In modular invariant models of flavor, observables must be modular invariant. The observables discussed so far in the literature are functions of the modulus $\tau$ and its conjugate, $\bar\tau$. We point out that certain combinations of…
We introduce and study some families of groups whose irreducible characters take values on quadratic extensions of the rationals. We focus mostly on a generalization of inverse semi-rational groups, which we call uniformly semi-rational…
If the preimage of a four-point set under a meromorphic function belongs to the real line, then the image of the real line is contained in a circle in the Riemann sphere. We include an application of this result to holomorphic dynamics: if…
We study rational functions satisfying summability conditions - a family of weak conditions on the expansion along the critical orbits. Assuming their appropriate versions, we derive many nice properties: There exists a unique, ergodic, and…
