Let $H^d$ be the set of all rational maps of degree $d\ge 2$ on the Riemann sphere which are expanding on Julia set. We prove that if $f\in H^d$ and all or all but one critical points (or values) are in the immediate basin of attraction to…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An element F from k(x_1,...,x_n) is called a closed rational function if the subfield k(F) is algebraically closed in the field k(x_1,...,x_n). We prove that a rational function…

For any polynomial f with complex coefficients we find a remarkable subset of poles of the motivic zeta function. It is combinatorially determined by any log resolution and it admits an intrinsic interpretation in terms of contact loci of…

We give a new proof of the result that if f and g are transcendental entire functions, then the composite function f(g) has infinitely many fixed points. The method yields a number of generalization of this result. In particular, it extends…

Is it always true that every polynomial P with the degree at least two has a fixed point z0, the real part of whose multiplier is bigger than or equal to 1, i.e., Real part of (P'(z0))> 1? This question, raised by Coelho and Kalantari in…

A rational function of degree at least two with coefficients in an algebraically closed field is post-critically finite (PCF) if all of its critical points have finite forward orbit under iteration. We show that the collection of PCF…

The valence of a function f at a point $z_0$ is the number of distinct, finite solutions to $f(z) = z_0.$ In this paper, we bound the valence of complex-valued harmonic polynomials in the plane for some special harmonic polynomials of the…

A noncommutative (nc) function in $x_1,\dots,x_g,x_1^*,\dots,x_g$ is called plurisubharmonic (plush) if its nc complex Hessian takes only positive semidefinite values on an nc neighborhood of 0. The main result of this paper shows that an…

We find all polynomials f,g,h over a field K such that g and h are linear and f(g(x))=h(f(x)). We also solve the same problem for rational functions f,g,h, in case the field K is algebraically closed.

Pilgrim's Finite Global Attractor Conjecture has been verified for polynomials [1], but remains open for general rational maps. In this paper, we prove the conjecture for a family of rational maps obtained by gluing two PCF polynomials…

The goal of this paper is to study Goldbach's conjecture for rings of regular functions of affine algebraic varieties over a field. Among our main results, we define the notion of Goldbach condition for Newton polytopes, and we prove in a…

Let $D$ be a closed disk in the complex plane centered at the origin, $f, g$ complex valued continuous function on $D$. Let $P[f,g; D]$ (res. $R[f, g; D])$) be the uniform closure on $D$ of polynomials (res. rational functions) in variables…

Let $f \in Q(z)$ be a polynomial or rational function of degree 2. A special case of Morton and Silverman's Dynamical Uniform Boundedness Conjecture states that the number of rational preperiodic points of $f$ is bounded above by an…

We prove a complex polynomial of degree $n$ has at most $\lceil n/2 \rceil$ attractive fixed points lying on a line. We also consider the general case.

We denote by ${\rm Hess}^+$ the set of all points $p\in\mathbb{R}^n$ such that the Hessian matrix $H_p(f)$ of the $C^2$-smooth function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is positive definite. In this paper we provide a class of…

It is well known that the real and imaginary parts of any holomorphic function are harmonic functions of two variables. In this paper we generalize this property to finite-dimensional commutative algebras. We prove that if some basis of a…

In this paper we have introduced two new classes $\mathcal{H}\mathcal{M}(\beta, \lambda, k, \nu)$ and $\overline{\mathcal{H}\mathcal{M}} (\beta, \lambda, k, \nu)$ of complex valued harmonic multivalent functions of the form $f = h +…

A transcendental entire function f is called geometrically finite if the intersection of the set of singular values with the Fatou set is compact and the intersection of the postsingular set with the Julia set is finite. (In particular,…

If g and h are functions over some field, we can consider their composition f = g(h). The inverse problem is decomposition: given f, determine the ex- istence of such functions g and h. In this thesis we consider functional decom- positions…

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…
