We prove that two $C^r$ critical circle maps with the same rotation number of bounded type are $C^{1+\alpha}$ conjugate for some $\alpha>0$ provided their successive renormalizations converge together at an exponential rate in the $C^0$…

We prove that any two $C^3$ critical circle maps with the same irrational rotation number of bounded type and the same odd criticality are conjugate to each other by a $C^{1+\alpha}$ circle diffeomorphism, for some universal $\alpha>0$.

We prove that if two analytic multicritical circle maps with the same bounded type rotation number are topologically conjugate by a conjugacy which matches the critical points of the two maps while preserving the orders of their…

We prove that any two $C^4$ critical circle maps with the same irrational rotation number and the same odd criticality are conjugate to each other by a $C^1$ circle diffeomorphism. The conjugacy is $C^{1+\alpha}$ for Lebesgue almost every…

Given $C^2$ infinitely renormalizable unimodal maps $f$ and $g$ with a quadratic critical point and the same bounded combinatorial type, we prove that they are $C^{1+\alpha}$ conjugate along the closure of the corresponding forward orbits…

It is shown that if $f$ and $g$ are any two analytic critical circle mappings with the same irrational rotation number, then the conjugacy that maps the critical point of $f$ to that of $g$ has regularity $C^{1+\alpha}$ at the critical…

We prove that two topologically conjugate bi-critical circle maps whose signatures are the same, and whose renormalizations converge together exponentially fast in the $C^2$-topology, are $C^1$ conjugate.

In this paper we study homeomorphisms of the circle with several critical points and bounded type rotation number. We prove complex a priori bounds for these maps. As an application, we get that bi-cubic circle maps with same bounded type…

A general ansatz in Renormalization Theory, already established in many important situations, states that exponential convergence of renormalization orbits implies that topological conjugacies are actually smooth (when restricted to the…

We show that the set of conjugacy classes of cubic polynomials with a prefixed critical point, of preperiod $k\geq 1$, is an irreducible algebraic curve. We also establish an analogous result for quadratic rational maps. We then study a…

We construct a renormalization operator which acts on analytic circle maps whose critical exponent $\alpha$ is not necessarily an odd integer $2n+1$, $n\in\mathbb N$. When $\alpha=2n+1$, our definition generalizes cylinder renormalization…

We find conditions for two piecewise C^{2+\nu} homeomorphisms f and g of the circle to be C^1 conjugate. Besides the restrictions on the combinatorics of the maps (we assume that the maps have bounded combinatorics), and necessary…

In this paper we generalize renormalization theory for analytic critical circle maps with a cubic critical point to the case of maps with an arbitrary odd critical exponent by proving a quasiconformal rigidity statement for renormalizations…

Let $f, g:S^1\to S^1$ be two $C^3$ critical homeomorphisms of the circle with the same irrational rotation number and the same (finite) number of critical points, all of which are assumed to be non-flat, of power-law type. In this paper we…

The rigidity theory for circle homeomophisms with breaks was studied intensively in the last 20 years. It was proved that under mild conditions of the Diophantine type on the rotation number any two $C^{2+\alpha}$ smooth circle…

Answering a question posed by Adam Epstein, we show that the collection of conjugacy classes of polynomials admitting a parabolic fixed point and at most one infinite critical orbit is a set of bounded height in the relevant moduli space.…

We study geometrically finite one-dimensional mappings. These are a subspace of $C^{1+\alpha}$ one-dimensional mappings with finitely many, critically finite critical points. We study some geometric properties of a mapping in this subspace.…

We show that limits for the critical exponent tending to \infty exist in both critical circle homeomorphisms of golden mean rotation number and Fibonacci circle coverings. Moreover, they are the same. The limit map is not analytic at the…

We use the methods developed with M. Lyubich for proving complex bounds for real quadratics to extend E. De Faria's complex a priori bounds to all critical circle maps with an irrational rotation number. The contracting property for…
