We study explicit examples of Loewner chains generated by absolutely continuous driving measures, and discuss how properties of driving measures are reflected in the shapes of the growing Loewner hulls.

Xavier Buff et Arnaud Chéritat ont montré que l’ensemble de Julia de certains polynômes quadratiques est de mesure de Lebesgue positive, répondant ainsi à une question ouverte depuis Fatou et Julia. Les polynômes en question ont un point fixe indifférent irrationnel dont le nombre de rotation doit être soigneusement déterminé. On exposera les grandes lignes de la démonstration, ainsi que d’autres résultats connexes des mêmes auteurs sur la géométrie et la taille des disques de Siegel.

In 2001, B. Malgrange defines the D-envelope or galoisian envelope of an analytical dynamical system. Roughly speaking, this is the algebraic hull of the dynamical system. In this short article, the D-envelope of a rational map R: P1 --> P1 is computed. The rational maps characterised by a finitness property of their D-envelope appear to be the integrable ones.

Given a rational function $\varphi \left(T\right)$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^1$ of degree at least 2 with coefficients in a number field $k$, we show that for each place $v$ of $k$, there is a unique probability measure ${\mu }_{\varphi ,v}$ on the Berkovich space ${\mathbb{P}}_{\mathrm{Berk},\mathrm{v}}^1/{ℂ}_v$ such that if $\left\{z_n\right\}$ is a sequence of points in ${\mathbb{P}}^1\left(\overline{k}\right)$ whose $\varphi$-canonical heights tend to zero, then the $z_n$’s and their $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{k}/k)$-conjugates are equidistributed with respect to ${\mu }_{\varphi ,v}$.The proof uses a polynomial lift $F(x,y)=(F_1(x,y),F_2(x,y))$ of $\varphi$ to construct a two-variable Arakelov-Green’s function $g_{\varphi ,v}(x,y)$ for each $v$. The measure ${\mu }_{\varphi ,v}$ is obtained by taking the...

Let $f:{\mathbb{P}}^k\to {\mathbb{P}}^k$ be a dominating rational mapping of first algebraic degree $\lambda \ge 2$. If $S$ is a positive closed current of bidegree $(1,1)$ on ${\mathbb{P}}^k$ with zero Lelong numbers, we show – under a natural dynamical assumption – that the pullbacks ${\lambda }^{-n}{\left(f^n\right)}^{*}S$ converge to the Green current $T_f$. For some families of mappings, we get finer convergence results which allow us to characterize all $f^{*}$-invariant currents.

Let $f$ be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of a projective space and $f^n$ its iterate of order $n$. We prove that the pull-back by $f^n$ of a generic (in the Zariski sense) hypersurface, properly normalized, converges to the Green current associated to $f$ when $n$ tends to infinity. We also give an analogous result for the pull-back of positive closed $(1,1)$-currents and a similar result for regular polynomial automorphisms of ${ℂ}^k$.

We establish an equidistribution result for the pull-back of a (1,1)-closed positive current in ℂ² by a proper polynomial map of small topological degree. We also study convergence at infinity on good compactifications of ℂ². We make use of a lemma that enables us to control the blow-up of some integrals in the neighborhood of a big logarithmic singularity of a plurisubharmonic function. Finally, we discuss the importance of the properness hypothesis, and we give some results in the case where this...

Let f: ℙ → ℙ be a holomorphic endomorphism of a complex projective space ${\mathbb{P}}^k$, k ≥ 1, and let J be the Julia set of f (the topological support of the unique maximal entropy measure). Then there exists a positive number ${\kappa }_f>0$ such that if ϕ: J → ℝ is a Hölder continuous function with $sup\left(\varphi \right)-inf\left(\varphi \right)<{\kappa }_f$, then ϕ admits a unique equilibrium state ${\mu }_{\varphi }$ on J. This equilibrium state is equivalent to a fixed point of the normalized dual Perron-Frobenius operator. In addition, the dynamical system $(f,{\mu }_{\varphi })$ is K-mixing, whence ergodic. Proving...

A unified introduction to the dynamics of interval exchange maps and related topics, such as the geometry of translation surfaces, renormalization operators, and Teichmüller flows, starting from the basic definitions and culminating with the proof that almost every interval exchange map is uniquely ergodic. Great emphasis is put on examples and geometric interpretations of the main ideas.

A (quadratic) Hubbard tree is an invariant tree connecting the critical orbit within the Julia set of a postcritically finite (quadratic) polynomial. It is easy to read off the kneading sequences from a quadratic Hubbard tree; the result in this paper handles the converse direction. Not every sequence on two symbols is realized as the kneading sequence of a real or complex quadratic polynomial. Milnor and Thurston classified all real-admissible sequences, and we give a classification of all complex-admissible...

We prove that for Ω being an immediate basin of attraction to an attracting fixed point for a rational mapping of the Riemann sphere, and for an ergodic invariant measure μ on the boundary FrΩ, with positive Lyapunov exponent, there is an invariant subset of FrΩ which is an expanding repeller of Hausdorff dimension arbitrarily close to the Hausdorff dimension of μ. We also prove generalizations and a geometric coding tree abstract version. The paper is a continuation of a paper in Fund. Math. 145...

We study the Siegel-Schröder center problem on the linearization of analytic germs of diffeomorphisms in several complex variables, in the Gevrey-$s$, $s\&gt;0$ category. We introduce a new arithmetical condition of Bruno type on the linear part of the given germ, which ensures the existence of a Gevrey-$s$ formal linearization. We use this fact to prove the effective stability, i.e. stability for finite but long time, of neighborhoods of the origin, for the analytic germ.
