Holomorphic Linear $\C^k$-Actions, Trace Foliations, and Higher-Rank Poincaré Dynamics

We study the orbit decomposition on $\C^n$ generated by diagonal holomorphic $\C^k$-actions in the higher-rank setting of the classical Poincaré--Siegel dichotomy for linear vector fields. The coordinate stratification determines the dimensions and isotropy groups of the leaves and, under a maximal-rank condition, gives a precise description of the orbit structure on every coordinate stratum. For configurations in the Poincaré domain, a separating real direction provides a global conical model of the punctured orbit foliation by its traces on Euclidean spheres. We construct the corresponding radially reparametrized action on a sphere, describe its leaves as homogeneous spaces, and prove that orbit closures are constrained by coordinate supports. In particular, a limit point cannot acquire a new nonzero coordinate, although nonclosed trace leaves may also accumulate within a fixed support stratum. We show that the geometry of the weight configuration determines the complex dimensions of the leaves, whereas the arithmetic of their effective isotropy groups determines their diffeomorphism types. This gives rise to a threshold phenomenon across the coordinate stratification: the diffeomorphism type of the leaves is rigid in the low- and high-dimensional regimes, but becomes arithmetically unstable in the intermediate range $k<|I|<2k$. Finally, we show that these singular foliations admit canonical local transverse holomorphic structures in the spirit of Haefliger's transverse geometry for regular foliations. These structures determine intrinsic transverse pseudogroups, yielding a well-defined local transverse holomorphic geometry for the orbit foliation.

Hausdorff dimension of sets of numbers with large Lüroth elements

Lüroth series, like regular continued fractions, provide an interesting identification of real numbers with infinite sequences of integers. These sequences give deep arithmetic and measure-theoretic properties of subsets of numbers according to their growth. Although different, regular continued fractions and Lüroth series share several properties. In this paper, we explore one similarity by estimating the Hausdorff dimension of subsets of real numbers whose Lüroth expansion grows at a definite rate. This is an extension of a result of Y. Sun and J. Wu to the context of Lüroth series. It was recently shown by Y. Feng, B. Tan, and Q.-L. Zhou that the lower bound in our main theorem is actually an equality.

Generalised Lüroth expansions and a family of Minkowski's Question-Mark functions

The Minkowski's Question-Mark function is a singular homeomorphism of the unit interval that maps the set of quadratic surds into the rationals. This function has deserved the attention of several authors since the beginning of the twentieth century. Using different representations of real numbers by infinite sequences of integers, called $α$-Lüroth expansions, we obtain different instances of the standard shift map on infinite symbols, all of them topologically conjugated to the Gauss Map. In this note we prove that each of these conjugations share properties with the Minkowski's Question-Mark function: all of them are singular homeomorphisms of the interval, and in the "rational" cases, they map the set of quadratic surds into the set of rational numbers. In this sense, this family is a natural generalisation of the Minkowski's Question-Mark function.

On maximally inflected hyperbolic curves

In this note we study the distribution of real inflection points among the ovals of a real non-singular hyperbolic curve of even degree. Using Hilbert's method we show that for any integers $d$ and $r$ such that $4\leq r \leq 2d^2-2d$, there is a non-singular hyperbolic curve of degree $2d$ in $\mathbb R^2$ with exactly $r$ line segments in the boundary of its convex hull. We also give a complete classification of possible distributions of inflection points among the ovals of a maximally inflected non-singular hyperbolic curve of degree $6$.

Structure and evolution of strange attractors in non-elastic triangular billiards

We study pinball billiard dynamics in an equilateral triangular table. In such dynamics, collisions with the walls are non-elastic: the outgoing angle with the normal vector to the boundary is a uniform factor $λ< 1$ smaller than the incoming angle. This leads to contraction in phase space for the discrete-time dynamics between consecutive collisions, and hence to attractors of zero Lebesgue measure, which are almost always fractal strange attractors with chaotic dynamics, due to the presence of an expansion mechanism. We study the structure of these strange attractors and their evolution as the contraction parameter $λ$ is varied. For $λ$ in the interval (0, 1/3), we prove rigorously that the attractor has the structure of a Cantor set times an interval, whereas for larger values of $λ$ the billiard dynamics gives rise to nonaccessible regions in phase space. For $λ$ close to 1, the attractor splits into three transitive components, the basins of attraction of which have fractal basin boundaries.

Recursive formulas for Welschinger invariants of the projective plane

Welschinger invariants of the real projective plane can be computed via the enumeration of enriched graphs, called marked floor diagrams. By a purely combinatorial study of these objects, we prove a Caporaso-Harris type formula which allows one to compute Welschinger invariants for configurations of points with any number of complex conjugated points.

Bifurcations of periodic and chaotic attractors in pinball billiards with focusing boundaries

We study the dynamics of billiard models with a modified collision rule: the outgoing angle from a collision is a uniform contraction, by a factor lambda, of the incident angle. These pinball billiards interpolate between a one-dimensional map when lambda=0 and the classical Hamiltonian case of elastic collisions when lambda=1. For all lambda<1, the dynamics is dissipative, and thus gives rise to attractors, which may be periodic or chaotic. Motivated by recent rigorous results of Markarian, Pujals and Sambarino, we numerically investigate and characterise the bifurcations of the resulting attractors as the contraction parameter is varied. Some billiards exhibit only periodic attractors, some only chaotic attractors, and others have coexistence of the two types.

C^k-Robust transitivity for surfaces with boundary

We prove that C^1-robustly transitive diffeomorphisms on surfaces with boundary do not exist, and we exhibit a class of diffeomorphisms of surfaces with boundary which are C^k-robustly transitive, with k greater or equal than 2. This class of diffeomorphisms are examples where a version of Palis' conjecture on surfaces with boundary, about homoclinic tangencies and uniform hyperbolicity, does not hold in the C^2-topology. This follows showing that blow-up of pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms on surfaces without boundary, become C^2-robustly topologically mixing diffeomorphisms on a surfaces with boundary.
