Growth and integrability of some birational maps in dimension three
Abstract
Motivated by the study of the Kahan--Hirota--Kimura discretisation of the Euler top, we characterise the growth and integrability properties of a collection of elements in the Cremona group of a complex projective 3-space using techniques from algebraic geometry. This collection consists of maps obtained by composing the standard Cremona transformation $\mathrm{c}_3\in\mathrm{Bir}(\mathbb{P}^3)$ with projectivities that permute the fixed points of $\mathrm{c}_3$ and the points over which $\mathrm{c}_3$ performs a divisorial contraction. More specifically, we show that three behaviour are possible: (A) integrable with quadratic degree growth and two invariants, (B) periodic with two-periodic degree sequences and more than two invariants, and (C) non-integrable with submaximal degree growth and one invariant.
