We study the possible dynamical degrees of automorphisms of the affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$. In dimension $n=3$, we determine all dynamical degrees arising from the composition of an affine automorphism with a triangular one. This…
In this article we give two explicit families of automorphisms of degree $\leq 3$ of the affine $3$-space $\mathbb{A}^3$ such that each automorphism of degree $\leq 3$ of $\mathbb{A}^3$ is a member of one of these families up to composition…
We give a way to construct group of pseudo-automorphisms of rational varieties of any dimension that fix pointwise the image of a cubic hypersurface of $P^n. These group are free products of involutions, and most of their elements have…
For any given Salem number, we construct an automorphism on a simple abelian variety whose first dynamical degree is the square of the Salem number. Our construction works for both simple abelian varieties with totally indefinite quaternion…
Let f be a rational mapping of a space X . The complexity of (f,X) as a dynamical system is measured by the dynamical degrees $\delta_p(f)$, $1\le p\le {\rm dim}(X)$. We give the definition of the dynamical degrees show how they are…
In this paper, we consider the degree sequences of the tame automorphisms preserving an affine quadric threefold. Using some valuatives estimates derived from the work of Shestakov-Umirbaev and the action of this group on a CAT(0),…
Dynamical degrees and spectra can serve to distinguish birational automorphism groups of varieties in quantitative, as opposed to only qualitative, ways. We introduce and discuss some properties of those degrees and the Cremona degrees,…
Let $K[x,y]$ be the polynomial algebra in two variables over an algebraically closed field $K$. We generalize to the case of any characteristic the result of Furter that over a field of characteristic zero the set of automorphisms $(f,g)$…
Let F : P^N --> P^N be a dominant rational map. The dynamical degree of F is the quantity d_F = lim (deg F^n)^(1/n). When F is defined over a number field, we define the arithmetic degree of an algebraic point P to be a_F(P) = limsup…
The automorphisms of all 4-dimensional, real Lie Algebras are presented in a comprehensive way. Their action on the space of $4\times 4$, real, symmetric and positive definite, matrices, defines equivalence classes which are used for the…
For each 3-dimensional non-Lie Leibniz algebra over the complex numbers, we describe the algebra of polynomial invariants and determine its group of automorphisms. As a consequence, we establish that any two non-nilpotent 3-dimensional…
We provide the existence of new degree growths in the context of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^k$: if $k$ is an integer $\geq 3$, then for any $\ell\leq \left[\frac{k-1}{2}\right]$ there exist polynomial automorphisms $f$ of…
We first introduce the class of quasi-algebraically stable meromorphic maps of $\P^k.$ This class is strictly larger than that of algebraically stable meromorphic self-maps of $\P^k.$ Then we prove that all maps in the new class enjoy a…
We study a family of birational maps of smooth affine quadric 3-folds, {over the complex numbers}, of the form $x_1x_4-x_2x_3=$ constant, which seems to have some (among many others) interesting/unexpected characters: a) they are…
Let X be an affine irreducible variety over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. Given an automorphism F, we denote by k(X)^F its field of invariants, i.e. the set of rational functions f on X such that f(F)=f. Let n(F)…
In this paper, quadratic algebras on which $\tilde{H}_4$, the Heisenberg group of order 64, acts as degree-preserving algebra automorphisms are studied. In particular, we show that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a four-dimensional Artin-Schelter…
We show that two automorphisms of an affine surface with dynamical degree strictly larger than 1 share a Zariski dense set of periodic points if and only if they have the same periodic points. We construct canonical heights for these…
Quadratic automorphisms of $\mathbb C^3$ are classified up to affine conjugacy into seven classes by Forn$\ae$ss and Wu. Five of them contain irregular maps with interesting dynamics. In this paper, we focus on the maps in the fifth class…
We show that all Chein automorphisms (or one-row transformations) of lower degree $\geq 4$ of a free metabelian Lie algebra $M_n$ of rank $n\geq 4$ over an arbitrary field $K$ of characteristic $\neq 3$ are tame. We then show that all…
Given a polynomial endomorphism F of the n-dimensional affine space over a field K, we define a sequence of polynomial endomorphisms of the affine space associated to F. We call F nice if there exists an integer m such that the m-th term of…
