Zalcman's lemma, Pinchuk's rescaling method, and Catlin's estimates revisited

We present a renormalization lemma for certain maps defined on the unit disc of C and taking values in some metric space. We show that the classical renormalization lemmas of Zalcman and Miniowitz can be deduced from our lemma. We also use it to establish a general normality statement for the Pinchuk's scaling method in C^2 and, incidentally, reprove the Catlin's estimates for the Kobayashi metric in finite type domains.

Dynamical stability and Lyapunov exponents for holomorphic endomorphisms of CP(k)

We introduce a notion of stability for equilibrium measures in holomorphic families of endomorphisms of CP(k) and prove that it is equivalent to the stability of repelling cycles and equivalent to the existence of some measurable holomorphic motion of Julia sets which we call equilibrium lamination. We characterize the corresponding bifurcations by the strict subharmonicity of the sum of Lyapunov exponents or the instability of critical dynamics and analyze how repelling cycles may bifurcate. Our methods deeply exploit the properties of Lyapunov exponents and are based on ergodic theory and on pluripotential theory.

On the geometry of bifurcation currents for quadratic rational maps

We describe the behaviour at infinity of the bifurcation current in the moduli space of quadratic rational maps. To this purpose, we extend it to some closed, positive (1, 1)-current on a two-dimensional complex projective space and then compute the Lelong numbers and the self-intersection of the extended current.

Bifurcation currents in holomorphic dynamics on ${\bf P}^k$

We establish a formula for the sum of the Lyapounov exponents of an holomorphic endomorphism of ${\bf P}^k$. For an holomorphic family of such endomorphisms we define the {\em bifurcation current} as $dd^cL$ and show that it vanishes when the repulsive cycles move holomorphically. We then prove a formula which relates this current with the interaction between the Green current and the current of integration on the critical set. In the 1-dimensional case (i.e. for ${\bf P}^1$) we find a geometrical description of the support of this current and its powers. Finally we introduce the {\em bifurcation measure} giving some applications. This last part may be interpreted as a generalization of Mane-Sad-Sullivan theory based on pluri-potentialist methods.
