Birational Mappings and Matrix Sub-algebra from the Chiral Potts Model

We study birational transformations of the projective space originating from lattice statistical mechanics, specifically from various chiral Potts models. Associating these models to \emph{stable patterns} and \emph{signed-patterns}, we give general results which allow us to find \emph{all} chiral $q$-state spin-edge Potts models when the number of states $q$ is a prime or the square of a prime, as well as several $q$-dependent family of models. We also prove the absence of monocolor stable signed-pattern with more than four states. This demonstrates a conjecture about cyclic Hadamard matrices in a particular case. The birational transformations associated to these lattice spin-edge models show complexity reduction. In particular we recover a one-parameter family of integrable transformations, for which we give a matrix representation

A classification of four-state spin edge Potts models

We classify four-state spin models with interactions along the edges according to their behavior under a specific group of symmetry transformations. This analysis uses the measure of complexity of the action of the symmetries, in the spirit of the study of discrete dynamical systems on the space of parameters of the models, and aims at uncovering solvable ones. We find that the action of these symmetries has low complexity (polynomial growth, zero entropy). We obtain natural parametrizations of various models, among which an unexpected elliptic parametrization of the four-state chiral Potts model, which we use to localize possible integrability conditions associated with high genus curves.

Real Arnold complexity versus real topological entropy for birational transformations

We consider a family of birational transformations of two variables, depending on one parameter, for which simple rational expressions with integer coefficients, for the exact expression of the dynamical zeta function, have been conjectured. together with an equality between the asymptotic of the Arnold complexity and the exponential of the topological entropy. This identification takes place for the birational mapping seen as a mapping bearing on two complex variables. We revisit this identification between these two quite `universal complexities' by considering now the mapping as a mapping bearing on two real variables. The definitions of the two previous `topological' complexities (Arnold complexity and topological entropy) are modified according to this real-variables point of view. Most of the `universality' is lost, but the identification survives.

Rational dynamical zeta functions for birational transformations

We propose a conjecture for the exact expression of the dynamical zeta function for a family of birational transformations of two variables, depending on two parameters. This conjectured function is a simple rational expression with integer coefficients. This yields an algebraic value for the topological entropy. Furthermore the generating function for the Arnold complexity is also conjectured to be a rational expression with integer coefficients with the same singularities as for the dynamical zeta function. This leads, at least in this example, to an equality between the Arnold complexity and the exponential of the topological entropy. We also give a semi-numerical method to effectively compute the Arnold complexity.

Topological entropy and complexity for discrete dynamical systems

To test a possible relation between the topological entropy and the Arnold complexity, and to provide a non trivial example of a rational dynamical zeta function, we introduce a two-parameter family of two-dimensional discrete rational mappings. The generating functions of the number of fixed points, and of the degree of the successive iterates, are both considered. We conjecture rational expressions with integer coefficients for these two generating functions. and a rational expression for the dynamical zeta function. We then deduce algebraic values for the complexity growth and for the exponential of the topological entropy. Moreover, these two numbers happen to be equal for all the values of the parameters. These conjectures are supported by a semi-numerical method we explain. This method also localizes the integrable cases.
