Super-potentials, densities of currents and number of periodic points for holomorphic maps

We prove that if a positive closed current is bounded by another one with bounded, continuous or Hoelder continuous super-potentials, then it inherits the same property. There are two different methods to define wedge-products of positive closed currents of arbitrary bi-degree on compact Kaehler manifolds using super-potentials and densities. When the first method applies, we show that the second method also applies and gives the same result. As an application, we obtain a sharp upper bound for the number of isolated periodic points of holomorphic maps on compact Kaehler manifolds whose actions on cohomology are simple. A similar result still holds for a large class of holomorphic correspondences.

Distribution of scattering resonances for generic Schrodinger operators

Let -Delta+V be the Schrodinger operator acting on L^2(R^d,C) with d odd larger than 2. Here V is a bounded real- or complex-valued function vanishing outside the closed ball of center 0 and radius a. If V belongs to the class of potentials introduced by Christiansen, we show that when r goes to infinity, the resonances of -Delta+V, scaled down by the factor r, are asymptotically distributed, with respect to an explicit probability distribution on the closed lower unit half-disc of the complex plane. The rate of convergence is also considered for subclasses of potentials.

Large deviation theorem for random covariance matrices

We establish a large deviation theorem for the empirical spectral distribution of random covariance matrices whose entries are independent random variables with mean 0, variance 1 and having controlled forth moments. Some new properties of Laguerre polynomials are also given.

Unique ergodicity for foliations in P^2 with an invariant curve

Consider a foliation in the projective plane admitting a projective line as the unique invariant algebraic curve. Assume that the foliation is generic in the sense that its singular points are hyperbolic. We show that there is a unique positive ddc-closed (1,1)-current of mass 1 which is directed by the foliation and this is the current of integration on the invariant line. A unique ergodicity theorem for the distribution of leaves follows: for any leaf L, appropriate averages of L converge to the current of integration on the invariant line. This property is surprising because for most of such foliations the leaves (except the invariant line) are dense in the projective plane. So one could expect that they spend a significant amount of hyperbolic time in every open set and that there should be a fat ddc-closed non-closed current with support equal to the projective plane. The proof uses an extension of our theory of densities for currents. Foliations on compact Kaehler surfaces with one or several invariant curves are also considered.

Equidistribution problems of complex dynamics in higher dimension

Equidistribution of the orbits of points, subvarieties or of periodic points in complex dynamics is a fundamental problem. It is often related to strong ergodic properties of the dynamical system and to a deep understanding of analytic cycles, or more generally positive closed currents, of arbitrary dimension and degree. The later topic includes the study of the potentials and super-potentials of positive closed currents, their intersection with or without dimension excess. In this paper, we will survey some results and tools developed during the last two decades. Related concepts, new techniques and open problems will be presented.

Large deviation theorem for zeros of polynomials and Hermitian random matrices

We give abstract versions of the large deviation theorem for the distribution of zeros of polynomials and apply them to the characteristic polynomials of Hermitian random matrices. We obtain new estimates related to the local semi-circular law for the empirical spectral distribution of these matrices when the 4th moments of their entries are controlled.

Equidistribution speed for Fekete points associated with an ample line bundle

Let K be the closure of a bounded open set with smooth boundary in C^n. A Fekete configuration of order p for K is a finite subset of K maximizing the Vandermonde determinant associated with polynomials of degree at most p. A recent theorem by Berman, Boucksom and Witt Nystrom implies that Fekete configurations for K are asymptotically equidistributed with respect to a canonical equilibrium measure, as p tends to infinite. We give here an explicit estimate for the speed of convergence. The result also holds in a general setting of Fekete points associated with an ample line bundle over a projective manifold. Our approach requires a new estimate on Bergman kernels for line bundles and quantitative results in pluripotential theory which are of independent interest.

Large deviations principle for some beta-ensembles

Let L be a positive line bundle over a projective complex manifold X. Consider the space of holomorphic sections of the tensor power of order p of L. The determinant of a basis of this space, together with some given probability measure on a weighted compact set in X, induces naturally a beta-ensemble, i.e., a random point process on the compact set. Physically, this general setting corresponds to a gas of free fermions in X and may admit some random matrix models. The empirical measures, associated with such beta-ensembles, converge almost surely to an equilibrium measure when p goes to infinity. We establish a large deviations principle (LDP) with an effective speed of convergence for these empirical measures. Our study covers the case of some beta-ensembles on a compact subset of a real sphere or of a real Euclidean space.

On the asymptotic behavior of Bergman kernels for positive line bundles

Let L be a positive line bundle on a projective complex manifold. We study the asymptotic behavior of Bergman kernels associated with the tensor powers L^p of L as p tends to infinity. The emphasis is the dependence of the uniform estimates on the positivity of the Chern form of the metric on L. This situation appears naturally when we approximate a semi-positive singular metric by smooth positively curved metrics.

Growth of the number of periodic points for meromorphic maps

We show that any dominant meromorphic self-map f of a compact Kaehler manifold X is an Artin-Mazur map. More precisely, if P_n(f) is the number of its isolated periodic points of period n (counted with multiplicity), then P_n(f) grows at most exponentially fast with respect to n and the exponential rate is at most equal to the algebraic entropy of f. Further estimates are given when X is a surface. Among the techniques introduced in this paper, the h-dimension of the density between two arbitrary positive closed currents on a compact Kaehler surface is obtained.

Compact Kähler manifolds admitting large solvable groups of automorphisms

Let G be a group of automorphisms of a compact Kähler manifold X of dimension n and N(G) the subset of null-entropy elements. Suppose G admits no non-abelian free subgroup. Improving the known Tits alternative, we obtain that, up to replace G by a finite-index subgroup, either G/N(G) is a free abelian group of rank < n-1, or G/N(G) is a free abelian group of rank n-1 and X is a complex torus, or G is a free abelian group of rank n-1. If the last case occurs, X is G-equivariant birational to the quotient of an abelian variety provided that X is a projective manifold of dimension n > 2 and is not rationally connected. We also prove and use a generalization of a theorem by Fujiki and Lieberman on the structure of Aut(X).

Rigidity of Julia sets for Henon type maps

We prove that the Julia set of a Henon type automorphism on C^2 is very rigid: it supports a unique positive ddc-closed current of mass 1. A similar property holds for the cohomology class of the Green current associated with an automorphism of positive entropy on a compact Kaehler surface. Relations between this phenomenon, several quantitative equidistribution properties and the theory of value distribution will be discussed. We also survey some rigidity properties of Henon type maps on C^k and of automorphisms of compact Kaehler manifolds.

Density of positive closed currents, a theory of non-generic intersections

We introduce a notion of density which extends both the notion of Lelong number and the theory of intersection for positive closed currents on Kaehler manifolds. For arbitrary finite family of positive closed currents on a compact Kaehler manifold we construct cohomology classes which represent their intersection even when a phenomenon of excess dimension occurs. An example is the case of two algebraic varieties whose intersection has dimension larger than the expected number. The theory allows to solve problems in complex dynamics. Basic calculus on the density of currents is established.

Equidistribution of saddle periodic points for Henon-type automorphisms of C^k

In this paper, we prove the equidistribution of saddle periodic points for Henon-type automorphisms of C^k with respect to it equilibrium measure. A general strategy to obtain equidistribution properties in any dimension is presented. It is based on our recent theory of densities for positive closed currents. Several fine properties of dynamical currents are also proved.

Equidistribution for meromorphic maps with dominant topological degree

Let f be a meromorphic self-map on a compact Kaehler manifold whose topological degree is strictly larger than the other dynamical degrees. We show that repelling periodic points are equidistributed with respect to the equilibrium measure of f. We also describe the exceptional set of points whose backward orbits are not equidistributed.

Tits alternative for automorphism groups of compact Kaehler manifolds

We survey some properties of the automorphism groups of compact Kaehler manifolds. In particular, we present recent results by Keum, Oguiso and Zhang on the structure of these groups from the Tits alternative point of view. Several other related results will be also discussed. This paper is written for the VIASM Annual Meeting 2012.

Equidistribution of zeros of holomorphic sections in the non compact setting

We consider N-tensor powers of a positive Hermitian line bundle L over a non-compact complex manifold X. In the compact case, B. Shiffman and S. Zelditch proved that the zeros of random sections become asymptotically uniformly distributed with respect to the natural measure coming from the curvature of L, as N tends to infinity. Under certain boundedness assumptions on the curvature of the canonical line bundle of X and on the Chern form of L we prove a non-compact version of this result. We give various applications, including the limiting distribution of zeros of cusp forms with respect to the principal congruence subgroups of SL2(Z) and to the hyperbolic measure, the higher dimensional case of arithmetic quotients and the case of orthogonal polynomials with weights at infinity. We also give estimates for the speed of convergence of the currents of integration on the zero-divisors.
