Let $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^k$ of degree $d.$ For each quasi-attractor of $f$ we construct a finite set of currents with attractive behaviors. To every such an attracting current is associated an equilibrium measure…

Let f be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of P^k having an attracting set A. We show that, under some natural assumptions, A supports a unique invariant positive closed current \tau, of the right bidegree and of mass 1. Moreover,…

We show that special perturbations of a particular holomorphic map on $\mathbf{P}^k$ give us examples of maps that possess chaotic nonalgebraic attractors. Furthermore, we study the dynamics of the maps on the attractors. In particular, we…

We study random holomorphic endomorphisms of P^k(C). Under some assumptions, we construct a random Green current and a random Green measure and we prove that these measures have mixing properties.

We introduce a geometry on the cone of positive closed currents of bidegree (p,p) and apply it to define the intersection of such currents. We also construct and study the Green currents and the equilibrium measure for horizontal-like…

Let $\mu$ be the equilibrium measure of an endomorphism of ${\sf P}^k({\bf C})$. We show that it is its unique measure of maximal entropy. We build $\mu$ directly as the distribution of any point outside an algebraic exceptional set.

This paper concerns the dynamics of polynomial automorphisms of ${\bf C}^2$. One can associate to such an automorphism two currents $\mu^\pm$ and the equilibrium measure $\mu=\mu^+\wedge\mu^-$. In this paper we study some geometric and…

We study the laminarity of the Green current of endomorphisms of $P^2C$ near hyperbolic measures of saddle type. When these measures are supported by attracting sets, we prove that the Green current is laminar in the basin of attraction and…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb{CP}^k$ having an attracting set $A$. In this paper, we address the question of the "size" of $A$ in a pluripolar sense. We introduce a conceptually simple framework to have non-algebraic…

We show the existence and uniqueness of the maximal entropy probability measure for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are semi-conjugate to nonuniformly expanding maps. Using the theory of projective metric on cones we then prove…

We study the regularity of the Green currents and of the equilibrium measure associated to a horizontal-like map in C^k, under a natural assumption on the dynamical degrees. We estimate the speed of convergence towards the Green currents,…

We study ergodic properties of compositions of holomorphic endomorphisms of the complex projective space chosen independently at random according to some probability distribution. Along the way, we construct positive closed currents which…

We describe some recent results on the dynamics of singular-hyperbolic (or Lorenz-like) attractors: attractors in this class are expansive and so sensitive with respect to initial data; they admit a unique physical measure whose support is…

We prove that a singular-hyperbolic attractor of a 3-dimensional flow is chaotic, in two strong different senses. Firstly, the flow is expansive: if two points remain close for all times, possibly with time reparametrization, then their…

LLet $f$ be a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^ 2$ of degree $d \geq 2$. We estimate the local directional dimensions of closed positive currents $S$ with respect to ergodic dilating measures $\nu$. We infer several applications. The…

Let $M$ be a closed manifold, and let $f:M \rightarrow M$ be a $C^{2+\alpha}$ Axiom A diffeomorphism. Suppose that $f$ has an attractor $\Omega$ with codimension 1 stable lamination. Under a generic nonlinearity condition and a suitable…

In this note, we consider the thermodynamic formalism for Lorenz attractors of flows in any dimension. Under a mild condition on the H\"older continuous potential function $\phi$, we prove that for an open and dense subset of $C^1$ vector…

We propose a measure of divergence of probability distributions for quantifying the dissimilarity of two chaotic attractors. This measure is defined in terms of a generalized entropy. We illustrate our procedure by considering the effect of…

The emphasis of this course is on pluripotential methods in complex dynamics in higher dimension. They are based on the compactness properties of plurisubharmonic functions and on the theory of positive closed currents. Applications of…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a dominating meromorphic map of a compact K\"ahler surface of large topological degree. Let $S$ be a positive closed current on $X$ of bidegree $(1,1)$. We consider an ergodic measure $\nu$ of large entropy supported by…
