The theory of polynomial-like maps is of fundamental importance in holomorphic dynamics. We study dynamical properties of a larger class of maps. Our main result is that, under some natural conditions, a map of this class has a completely…

We define polygonal dynamics as a family of dynamical systems acting on points in projective spaces. The most famous example is the pentagram map. Similar collapsing phenomena seem to occur in most of these systems. We prove it in some…

Let $\{f_i:\mathbb{F}_p^i \to \{0,1\}\}$ be a sequence of functions, where $p$ is a fixed prime and $\mathbb{F}_p$ is the finite field of order $p$. The limit of the sequence can be syntactically defined using the notion of ultralimit.…

We show that for every "locally finite" unit-preserving completely positive map P acting on a C*-algebra, there is a corresponding *-automorphism \alpha of another unital C*-algebra such that the two sequences P, P^2,P^3,... and \alpha,…

Suppose f is a $C^{1+\alpha}$ surface diffeomorphism, and m is an equilibrium measure of a Holder continuous potential. We show that if m has positive metric entropy, then f is measure theoretically isomorphic to the product of a Bernoulli…

Let $\mathbf{f} = \left(f_1, \dots, f_p\right) $ be a polynomial tuple in $\mathbb{Q}[z_1, \dots, z_n]$ and let $d = \max_{1 \leq i \leq p} \deg f_i$. We consider the problem of computing the set of asymptotic critical values of the…

Let $f$ be a dominating meromorphic self-map of a compact K\"{a}hler manifold. Assume that the topological degree of $f$ is larger than the other dynamical degrees. We give estimates of the dimension of the equilibrium measure of $f$, which…

We prove an analogue of the Manin-Mumford conjecture for polynomial dynamical systems over number fields. In our setting the role of torsion points is taken by the small orbit of a point $\alpha$. The small orbit of a point was introduced…

Two linear recurrences exhibit mirror symmetry connecting the constants $e$ and $\pi$. When parametrized, their asymptotic connection constants extend to meromorphic functions satisfying additive functional equations with rational…

Let $f$ be a meromorphic correspondence on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ of dimension $k$. Assume that its topological degree is larger than the dynamical degree of order $k-1$. We obtain a quantitative regularity of the equilibrium…

We introduce the notion of semi-characteristic polynomial for a semi-linear map of a finite- dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic p. This polynomial has some properties in common with the classical characteristic…

A quaternionic matrix-valued regular function is a map $F: \Omega \rightarrow M_n(\mathbb{H})$ whose entries are (left) regular functions of a quaternion variable, where $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{H}$. Our aim is to bring out some…

The d'Arcais polynomials $P_n(z)$ for $n\in\{0,1,\dots\}$ are defined as $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} P_n(z) q^n = \exp(-z\ln((q;q)_{\infty}))$ where the $q$-Pochhammer symbol is $(q;q)_{\infty} = \prod_{k=1}^{\infty} (1-q^k)$ for $|q|<1$. Denoting…

We study a certain class $\mathcal{P}$ of positive linear functionals $\varphi$ on $L^{\infty}([1,\infty))$ for which $\varphi(f) = \alpha$ if $\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{x} \int_1^x f(t)dt = \alpha$. It turns out that translations $f(x)…

This work concerns $L^p$ norms of high energy Laplace eigenfunctions, $(-\Delta_g-\lambda^2)\phi_\lambda=0$, $\|\phi_\lambda\|_{L^2}=1$. In 1988, Sogge gave optimal estimates on the growth of $\|\phi_\lambda\|_{L^p}$ for a general compact…
