Manhattan curves in complex dynamics and asymptotic correlation of multiplier spectra

Abstract

The Manhattan curve for a pair of hyperbolic structures (possibly with cusps) on a given surface is a geometric object that encodes the growth rate of lengths of closed geodesics with respect to the two different hyperbolic metrics. It has been extensively studied as a way to understand geodesics on surfaces, the thermodynamic formalism of the geodesic flows and comparison of hyperbolic metrics. Via Sullivan's dictionary, in this paper, we define and study the Manhattan curve for a pair of hyperbolic rational maps on $\mathbb C\mathbb P^1$, and more generally of holomorphic endomorphisms of $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^k$. We discuss several counting results for the multiplier spectrum and show that the Manhattan curve for two holomorphic endomorphisms is related to the correlation number of their multiplier spectra.

Effective equidistribution of orbits under semisimple groups on congruence quotients

We prove an effective equidistribution result for periodic orbits of semisimple groups on congruence quotients of an ambient semisimple group.This extends a previous work of Einsiedler, Margulis and Venkatesh. The main new feature is that we allow for periodic orbits of semisimple groups with nontrivial centralizer in the ambient group. Our proof uses crucially an effective closing lemma from work of the author with Lindenstrauss, Margulis,Mohammadi, and Shah.

Generalized entropy of measure-induced maps

A classical result by E. Glasner and B. Weiss states that the topological entropy of a map $f$ is zero if and only if the topological entropy of its measure-induced map $f_*$ is zero, where $f_*$ is defined as the push-forward of a measure. In this work, we use generalized entropy to distinguish the complexity of these maps and prove that the measure-induced map is much more complex than the original map. Moreover, we introduce the generalized mean dimension, an invariant that is useful for distinguishing dynamical systems with zero mean dimension, including those with the small-boundary property, and we show a relationship between this new invariant and generalized entropy.

The endpoint problem for $\varepsilon$-hypercyclicity

For a fixed $0<\varepsilon<1$, F. Bayart asked in 2024 whether there exists an operator $T$ such that, for every $0<δ<1$, $T$ is $δ$-hypercyclic if and only if $δ\in[\varepsilon,1)$. We answer this question affirmatively by constructing a weighted backward shift on $\ell_2(\mathbb N_0,\ell_2(\mathbb N_0))$ with this property.
