We study finite orbits for non-elementary groups of automorphisms of compact projective surfaces. In particular we prove that if the surface and the group are defined over a number field k and the group contains parabolic elements, then the…

We study the dynamics of a generic automorphism $f$ of a Stein manifold with the density property. Such manifolds include all linear algebraic groups. Even in the special case of $\mathbb C^n$, $n\geq 2$, most of our results are new. We…

In this paper, we study the relation between two dynamical systems (V,f) and (V,g) with f. g = g . f. As an application, we show that an endomorphism (respectively a polynomial map with Zariski dense, of bounded Pre(f) has only finitely…

In this paper, we study the periodic and eventually periodic points of affine infra-nilmanifold endomorphisms. On the one hand, we give a sufficient condition for a point of the infra-nilmanifold to be (eventually) periodic. In this way we…

We study algebraic dynamical systems (and, more generally, $\sigma$-varieties) $\Phi:{\mathbb A}^n_{\mathbb C} \to {\mathbb A}^n_{\mathbb C}$ given by coordinatewise univariate polynomials by refining a theorem of Ritt. More precisely, we…

A nonpolycyclic nilpotent-by-cyclic group Gamma can be expressed as the HNN extension of a finitely-generated nilpotent group N. The first main result is that quasi-isometric nilpotent-by-cyclic groups are HNN extensions of quasi-isometric…

Let $X = G/\Gamma$ be a quotient of a real Lie group by a non-uniform lattice. Consider a one-parameter subgroup $F$ of $G$ that is $\operatorname{Ad}$-diagonalizable over $\mathbb{C}$ and whose action on $(X,m_X)$ is mixing. In this…

The orbits of the symplectic group acting on the type A flag variety are indexed by the fixed-point-free involutions in a finite symmetric group. The cohomology classes of the closures of these orbits have polynomial representatives…

Consider a compact manifold M of dimension at least 2 and the space of C^r-smooth diffeomorphisms Diff^r(M). The classical Artin-Mazur theorem says that for a dense subset D of Diff^r(M) the number of isolated periodic points grows at most…

Given a number field $K$ and a polynomial $f(z) \in K[z]$, one can naturally construct a finite directed graph $G(f,K)$ whose vertices are the $K$-rational preperiodic points of $f$, with an edge $\alpha \to \beta$ if and only if $f(\alpha)…

We study the orbit behavior of a four dimensional smooth symplectic diffeomorphism $f$ near a homoclinic orbit $\Gamma$ to an 1-elliptic fixed point under some natural genericity assumptions. 1-elliptic fixed point has two real eigenvalues…

We prove a dynamical analogue of the Shafarevich conjecture for morphisms $f:\mathbb{P}_K^N\to\mathbb{P}_K^N$ of degree $d\ge2$, defined over a number field $K$. This extends previous work of Silverman and others in the case $N=1$.

We show that crystalline points are Zariski dense in the deformation space of a representation of the absolute Galois group of a $p$-adic field. We also show that these points are dense in the subspace parameterizing deformations with…

For endomorphisms of projective varieties, we prove that the arithmetic degree of a point with Zariski dense orbit must be a cohomological Lyapunov multiplier of the dynamical system. We will apply our result to deduce a corollary towards…

We study the images of polynomial maps over algebraically closed division rings. Our first result generalizes the classical Ax-Grothendieck theorem: We show that if $ f_1, \ldots, f_m $ are elements of the free associative algebra $…

We prove a new weak mean ergodic theorem (Theorem A) for 1-cocycles associated to weakly mixing representations of amenable groups. Let $G$ be a finitely generated, discrete, amenable group $G$ which admits a controlled Folner sequence. We…

Zernike polynomials are commonly used to represent the wavefront phase on circular optical apertures, since they form a complete and orthonormal basis on the unit circle. Here, we present a generalization of this Zernike basis for a variety…

We study $\textrm{Sym}(\infty)$-orbit closures of not necessarily closed points in the Zariski spectrum of the infinite polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x_{ij}:\, i\in\mathbb{N},\,j\in[n]]$. Among others, we characterize invariant prime ideals…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a global field, let d_f be the dynamical degree of f, and let h_X be a Weil height on X relative to an ample divisor. We prove that h_X(f^n(P)) << (d_f + e)^n…

Let G(A) be an AF-algebra given by periodic Bratteli diagram with the incidence matrix A in GL(n, Z). For a given polynomial p(x) in Z[x] we assign to G(A) a finite abelian group Z^n/p(A) Z^n. It is shown that if p(0)=1 or p(0)=-1 and…
