Extending our results in "Entropy conjecture for continuous maps of nilmanifolds", to appear in Israel Jour. of Math., we confirm that Entropy Conjecture holds for every continuous self-map of a compact $K(\pi,1)$ manifold with the…
Let $f : X\to X$ be a dominating meromorphic map on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ of dimension $k$. We extend the notion of topological entropy $h^l_{\mathrm{top}}(f)$ for the action of $f$ on (local) analytic sets of dimension $0\leq l…
In this note we study some properties of topological entropy for non-compact non-metrizable spaces. We prove that if a uniformly continuous self-map $f$ of a uniform space has topological shadowing property then the map $f$ has positive…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a dominant rational map which is 1-stable. Let $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ be the first and second dynamical degrees of $f$. If $\lambda_1^2>\lambda_2$, then we show that…
We compare real and complex dynamics for automorphisms of rational surfaces that are obtained by lifting \chg{some} quadratic birational maps of the plane. In particular, we show how to exploit the existence of an invariant cubic curve to…
Our aim is to illustrate how one can effectively apply the basic ideas and notions of topological entropy and dynamical degrees, together with recent progress of minimal model theory in higher dimension, for an explicit study of birational…
For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…
Let f be a holomorphic automorphism of positive entropy on a compact Kaehler surface. We show that the equilibrium measure of f is exponentially mixing. The proof uses some recent development on the pluripotential theory. The result also…
The notion of entropy appears in many fields and this paper is a survey about entropies in several branches of Mathematics. We are mainly concerned with the topological and the algebraic entropy in the context of continuous endomorphisms of…
A compact K\"ahler manifold is shown to be simply-connected if its `symmetric cotangent algebra' is trivial. Conjecturally, such a manifold should even be rationally connected. The relative version is also shown: a proper surjective…
The monotonicity of entropy is investigated for real quadratic rational maps on the real circle $\mathbb{R}\cup\{\infty\}$ based on the natural partition of the corresponding moduli space $\mathcal{M}_2(\mathbb{R})$ into its monotonic,…
Given a map $f: X\rightarrow Y$ of simply connected spaces of finite type such. The space of based loops at $f$ of the space of maps between $X$ and $Y$ is denoted by $\Omega_{f} Map(X,Y)$. For $n> 0$, we give a model categorical…
We show that the spectral radius for the action of a self map $f$ of a smooth projective variety (over an arbitrary base field) on its $\ell$-adic cohomology is achieved on the $f^*$-stable sub-algebra generated by any ample class. This…
Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group H on a compact symplectic manifold (M,w) and let G be a subgroup of the diffeomorphism group Diff(M). We develop techniques to decide when the maps on rational homotopy and rational…
We investigate isometric immersions of locally conformally Kaehler metrics into Hopf manifolds. In particular, we study Hopf-induced metrics on compact complex surfaces.
A complex compact surface which carries an automorphism of positive topological entropy has been proved by Cantat to be either a torus, a K3 surface, an Enriques surface or a rational surface. Automorphisms of rational surfaces are quite…
We consider the dynamics of a meromorphic map on a compact kahler surface whose topological degree is smaller than its first dynamical degree. The latter quantity is the exponential rate at which its iterates expand the cohomology class of…
We give an algebro-geometric approach towards the dynamics of automorphisms/endomorphisms of projective varieties or compact K\"ahler manifolds, try to determine the building blocks of automorphisms /endomorphisms, and show the relation…
Let X be a complex projective manifold and f a dominating rational map from X onto X. We show that the topological entropy h(f) of f is bounded from above by the logarithm of its maximal dynamical degree.
Let $X$ be a compact complex non-K\"ahler manifold and $f$ a dominant meromorphic self-map of $X$. Examples of such maps are self-maps of Hopf manifolds, Calabi-Eckmann manifolds, non-tori nilmanifolds and their blowups. We prove that if…
