Robust heterodimensional cycles in two-parameter unfolding of homoclinic tangencies

We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the birth of heterodimensional cycles from a generic homoclinic tangency to a hyperbolic periodic orbit. We prove for $C^r$ ($r=3,\dots,\infty,ω$) dynamical systems on a manifold $\mathcal{M}$, with $\dim \mathcal{M}\geqslant 3$ for diffeomorphisms and with $\dim \mathcal{M}\geqslant 4$ for flows, that $C^1$-robust heterodimensional dynamics of coindex one appear in any generic two-parameter $C^r$ unfolding of a homoclinic tangency to a periodic orbit such that at least one central multiplier is not real and the central dynamics are not sectionally dissipative. The heterodimensional dynamics also involve a blender exhibiting $C^1$-robust homoclinic tangencies. As a corollary, any system with a homoclinic tangency of the class described above belongs to the $C^r$ closure of the $C^1$-open Newhouse domain.

Aperiodic chain recurrence classes of $C^1$-generic diffeomorphisms

We consider the space of $C^1$-diffeomorphims equipped with the $C^1$-topology on a three dimensional closed manifold. It is known that there are open sets in which $C^1$-generic diffeomorphisms display uncountably many chain recurrences classes, while only countably many of them may contain periodic orbits. The classes without periodic orbits, called aperiodic classes, are the main subject of this paper. The aim of the paper is to show that aperiodic classes of $C^1$-generic diffeomorphisms can exhibit a variety of topological properties. More specifically, there are $C^1$-generic diffeomorphisms with (1) minimal expansive aperiodic classes, (2) minimal but non-uniquely ergodic aperiodic classes, (3) transitive but non-minimal aperiodic classes, (4) non-transitive, uniquely ergodic aperiodic classes.

A mechanism for ejecting a horseshoe from a partially hyperbolic chain recurrence class

We give a $C^1$-perturbation technique for ejecting an a priori given finite set of periodic points preserving a given finite set of homo/hetero-clinic intersections from a chain recurrence class of a periodic point. The technique is first stated under a simpler setting called Markov iterated function system, a two dimensional iterated function system in which the compositions are chosen in Markovian way. Then we apply the result to the setting of three dimensional partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms.

Super exponential divergence of periodic points for C^1-generic partially hyperbolic homoclinic classes

A diffeomorphism f is called super exponential divergent if for every r>1, the lower limit of #Per_n(f)/r^n diverges to infinity as n tends to infinity, where Per_n(f) is the set of all periodic points of f with period n. This property is stronger than the usual super exponential growth of the number of periodic points. We show that for a three dimensional manifold M, there exists an open subset O of Diff^1(M) such that diffeomorphisms with super exponential divergent property form a dense subset of O in the C^1-topology. A relevant result of non super exponential divergence for diffeomorphisms in a locally generic subset of Diff^r(M) (r=1,2,...\infty) is also shown.

Fast growth of the number of periodic points arising from heterodimensional connections

We consider C^r-diffeomorphisms of a compact smooth manifold having a pair of robust heterodimensional cycles where r is a positive integer or infinity. We prove that if certain conditions about the signatures of non-linearities and Schwarzian derivatives of the transition maps are satisfied, then by giving C^r arbitrarily small perturbation, we can produce a periodic point at which the first return map in the center direction is C^r-flat. As a consequence, we will prove that C^r-generic diffeomorphisms in the neighborhood of the initial diffeomorphism exhibit super-exponential growth of number of periodic points. We also give examples which show the necessity of the conditions on non-linearities and the Schwarzian derivatives.

Degenerate behavior in non-hyperbolic semigroup actions on the interval: fast growth of periodic points and universal dynamics

We consider semigroup actions on the unit interval generated by strictly increasing $C^r$-maps. We assume that one of the generators has a pair of fixed points, one attracting and one repelling, and a heteroclinic orbit that connects the repeller and attractor, and the other generators form a robust blender, which can bring the points from a small neighborhood of the attractor to an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the repeller. This is a model setting for partially hyperbolic systems with one central direction. We show that, under additional conditions on the non-linearity and the Schwarzian derivative, the above semigroups exhibit, $C^r$-generically for any r, arbitrarily fast growth of the number of periodic points as a function of the period. We also show that a $C^r$-generic semigroup from the class under consideration supports an ultimately complicated behavior called universal dynamics.

Volume hyperbolicity and wildness

It is known that volume hyperbolicity (partial hyperbolicity and uniform expansion or contraction of the volume in the extremal bundles) is a necessary condition for robust transitivity or robust chain recurrence hence for tameness. In this paper, on any 3-manifold we build examples of quasi-attractors which are volume hyperbolic and wild at the same time. As a main corollary, we see that, for any closed 3-manifold $M$, the space $\mathrm{Diff}^1(M)$ admits a non-empty open set where every $C^1$-generic diffeomorphism has no attractors or repellers. The main tool of our construction is the notion of flexible periodic points introduced by the authors. For ejecting the flexible points from the quasi-attractor, we control the topology of the quasi-attractor using the notion of partially hyperbolic filtrating Markov partition, which we introduce in this paper.

The $C^{1+α}$ hypothesis in Pesin theory revisited

We show that for every compact 3-manifold $M$ there exists an open subset of $\diff ^1(M)$ in which every generic diffeomorphism admits uncountably many ergodic probability measures which are hyperbolic while their supports are disjoint and admit a basis of attracting neighborhoods and a basis of repelling neighborhoods. As a consequence, the points in the support of these measures have no stable and no unstable manifolds. This contrasts with the higher regularity case, where Pesin theory gives us the stable and the unstable manifolds with complementary dimensions at almost every point. We also give such an example in dimension two, without local genericity.

Blenders in center unstable Hénon-like families: with an application to heterodimensional bifurcations

We give an explicit family of polynomial maps called center unstable Hénon-like maps and prove that they exhibits blenders for some parametervalues. Using this family, we also prove the occurrence of blenders near certain non-transverse heterodimensional cycles under high regularity assumptions. The proof involves a renormalization scheme along heteroclinic orbits. We also investigate the connection between the blender and the original heterodimensional cycle.

Flexible periodic points

We define the notion of $\varepsilon$-flexible periodic point: it is a periodic point with stable index equal to two whose dynamics restricted to the stable direction admits $\varepsilon$-perturbations both to a homothety and a saddle having an eigenvalue equal to one. We show that $\varepsilon$-perturbation to an $\varepsilon$-flexible point allows to change it in a stable index one periodic point whose (one dimensional) stable manifold is an arbitrarily chosen $C^1$ -curve. We also show that the existence of flexible point is a general phenomenon among systems with a robustly non-hyperbolic two dimensional center-stable bundle.

An example of $C^1$-generically wild homoclinic classes with index deficiency

Given a closed smooth four-dimensional manifold, we construct a diffeomorphism that has a homoclinic class whose continuation locally generically satisfies the following condition: it does not admit any kind of dominated splittings whereas any periodic points belonging to it never have unstable index one.
