Generic aspects of holomorphic dynamics on highly flexible complex manifolds

We prove closing lemmas for automorphisms of a Stein manifold with the density property and for endomorphisms of an Oka-Stein manifold. In the former case we need to impose a new tameness condition. It follows that hyperbolic periodic points are dense in the tame non-wandering set of a generic automorphism of a Stein manifold with the density property and in the non-wandering set of a generic endomorphism of an Oka-Stein manifold. These are the first results about holomorphic dynamics on Oka manifolds. We strengthen previous results of ours on the existence and genericity of chaotic volume-preserving automorphisms of Stein manifolds with the volume density property. We build on work of Fornaess and Sibony: our main results generalise theorems of theirs and we use their methods of proof.
