We study the slices of the parameter space of cubic polynomials where we fix the multiplier of a fixed point to some value $\lambda$. The main object of interest here is the radius of convergence of the linearizing parametrization. The…

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.…

Let $f$ be a polynomial map of the Riemann sphere of degree at least two. We prove that if $f$ has a Siegel disk $G$ on which the rotation number satisfies a diophantine condition, then the boundary of $G$ contains a critical point.

In this paper, we study a particular conservative standard map in complex dimension 2. In this example, Siegel disks can be visualized and analyzed numerically as to the smoothness of their boundaries. We formulate and numerically support…

We show the existence of a rational surface automorphism of positive entropy with a given number of Siegel disks. Moreover, among automorphisms obtained from quadratic birational maps on the projective plane fixing irreducible cubic curves,…

We prove that for a polynomial diffeomorphism of C^2 , the support of any invariant measure, apart from a few obvious cases, is contained in the closure of the set of saddle periodic points.

We study critical orbits and bifurcations within the moduli space of quadratic rational maps on $\mathbb{P}^1$. We focus on the family of curves, $Per_1(\lambda)$ for $\lambda$ in $\mathbb{C}$, defined by the condition that each $f\in…

we consider a system with homoclinic orbit, We decompose the corresponding variational equation on the space of solutions and provide sufficient conditions for the permanency of homoclinic in the space of $C^1$ vector fields. We also…

We transfer the lower semi-continuity of Siegel disks with fixed Brjuno type rotation numbers to geometric limits. Here, we restrict to Lavaurs maps associated to quadratic polynomials with a parabolic fixed point.

Bounded irreducible local Siegel disks include classical Siegel disks of polynomials, bounded irreducible Siegel disks of rational and entire functions, and the examples of Herman and Moeckel. We show that there are only two possibilities…

X. Buff and A. Cheritat proved that there are quadratic polynomials having Siegel disks with smooth boundaries. Based on a simplification of A. Avila, we give yet another simplification of their proof. The main tool used is a harmonic…

We study the parameter space ${\mathcal S}_p$ for cubic polynomial maps with a marked critical point of period $p$. We will outline a fairly complete theory as to how the dynamics of the map $F$ changes as we move around the parameter space…

We discuss the bifurcation structure of homoclinic orbits in bimodal one dimensional maps. The universal structure of these bifurcations with singular bifurcation points and the web of bifurcation lines through the parameter space are…

In this article we provide a combinatorial sufficient (and conjecturally, necessary) condition (called $\alpha$-symmetry) for the mating of two postcritically finite polynomials in $\mathcal{S}_1$ to be obstructed. To do this, we study the…

The period map for cubic fourfolds takes values in a locally symmetric variety of orthogonal type of dimension 20. We determine the image of this period map (thus confirming a conjecture of Hassett) and give at the same time a new proof of…

We study stability and bifurcations in holomorphic families of polynomial automorphisms of C^2. We say that such a family is weakly stable over some parameter domain if periodic orbits do not bifurcate there. We first show that this defines…

The behavior under iteration of the critical points of polynomial maps plays an essential role in understanding its dynamics. We study the special case where the forward orbits of the critical points are finite. Thurston's theorem tells us…

In the moduli space of complex cubic polynomials with a marked critical point, given any p>=1, we prove that the loci formed by polynomials with the marked critical point periodic of period p is an irreducible curve. Thus answering a…

We give a complete characterization of polynomials in two complex variables that are cyclic with respect to the coordinate shifts acting on Dirichlet-type spaces in the bidisk, which include the Hardy space and the Dirichlet space of the…

We discuss one parameter families of unimodal maps, with negative Schwarzian derivative, unfolding a saddle-node bifurcation. It was previously shown that for a parameter set of positive Lebesgue density at the bifurcation, the maps possess…
