Generalizing a result of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier we show that on a curve in the algebraic torus which is not contained in any proper coset only finitely many points are close to an algebraic subgroup of codimension at least . The notion of close is defined using the Weil height. We also deduce some cardinality bounds and further finiteness statements.
Let K be a nonarchimedean field, and let ϕ ∈ K(z) be a polynomial or rational function of degree at least 2. We present a necessary and sufficient condition, involving only the fixed points of ϕ and their preimages, that determines whether or not the dynamical system ϕ: ℙ¹ → ℙ¹ has potentially good reduction.
Let K denote a number field, S a finite set of places of K, and ϕ: ℙⁿ → ℙⁿ a rational morphism defined over K. The main result of this paper states that there are only finitely many twists of ϕ defined over K which have good reduction at all places outside S. This answers a question of Silverman in the affirmative.
In this note, we consider the question of local analytic equivalence of analytic functions which fix the origin and are tangent to the identity. All mappings and equivalences are considered in the non-archimedean context e.g. all norms can be considered -adic norms. We show that any two mappings and which are formally equivalent are also analytically equivalent. We consider the related questions of roots and centralizers for analytic mappings. In this setting, anything which can be done formally...
We prove that if an n×n matrix defined over ℚ ₚ (or more generally an arbitrary complete, discretely-valued, non-Archimedean field) satisfies a certain congruence property, then it has a strictly maximal eigenvalue in ℚ ₚ, and that iteration of the (normalized) matrix converges to a projection operator onto the corresponding eigenspace. This result may be viewed as a p-adic analogue of the Perron-Frobenius theorem for positive real matrices.
We determine when the equidistribution property for possibly moving targets holds for a rational function of degree more than one on the projective line over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic and complete with respect to a non-trivial absolute value. This characterization could be useful in the positive characteristic case. Based on a variational argument, we give a purely local proof of the adelic equidistribution theorem for possibly moving targets, which is due to Favre and...
The dynamical Mertens' theorem describes asymptotics for the growth in the number of closed orbits in a dynamical system. We construct families of ergodic automorphisms of fixed entropy on compact connected groups with a continuum of growth rates on two different growth scales. This shows in particular that the space of all ergodic algebraic dynamical systems modulo the equivalence of shared orbit-growth asymptotics is not countable. In contrast, for the equivalence relation of measurable isomorphism...
