Abstracts

Marie-Claude Arnaud   Regularity of the invariant curves of conservative twist maps

Abstract of part 1
The conservative twist maps were introduced by H.Poincaré at the end of the 19th century for the study of the circular restricted 3 Body problem. Then Birkhoff began the study of these maps and obtained various theorems concerning their invariant curves. Fifty years later, the famous K.A.M. theorems provided new (perturbative) results for these invariant curves. We will give a survey concerning old and new results, and open probems.

Abstract of part 2
Answering to a question of J. Mather, we will construct an example of a C1 conservative twist map that has an essential irrational invariant curve that is not differentiable.


Patrick Bernard   



François Berteloot   Lyapunov exponent and bifurcations in holomorphic dynamics



Xavier Buff   Linearisability in holomorphic dynamics.

I will present a proof by Yoccoz of the following result originally due to Siegel: there is a set S of full measure in the unit circle such that for all ρ in S, any holomorphic germ z → ρ z + O(z2) is conjugate to the rotation z → ρ z near the origin. The proof relies on a clever use of harmonic and subharmonic functions, rather than on the arithmetic properties of the rotation number (as in the original proof of Siegel). I will then present further developments due to Ricardo Perez-Marco and other developments due to Arnaud Chéritat and myself.


Arnaud Chéritat   Siegel disks

The first part is a survey on Siegel disks. Siegel disks are maximal domains on which a given (one complex dimensional) dynamical system is conjugated to a rotation.

In the second part I will prove a particular theorem: there exist injective holomorphic maps, defined on arbitrarily large disks, having Siegel disks contained in the unit disk, and whose boundary is not locally connected. The construction is an adaptation of the Anosov-Katok method.


Christophe Dupont   Dimension theory in holomorphic dynamics

We deal with the dynamics of holomorphic mappings acting on projective spaces Pk(C). Our aim is to study the size (Hausdorff dimension) δ of their maximal entropy measure μ.

First talk :

1) We begin by focusing on k=1: we study rational maps acting on the Riemann sphere.

- We present Mané's formula, which expresses δ in terms of the metric entropy and the Lyapunov exponent of μ. The proof heavily relies on the conformal property of rational maps.

- We also focus on the maximal case δ = 2: those mappings are characterized by a strong algebraic rigidity.

2) We consider k=2: here dimension properties are less understood since the mappings are no more conformal.

- We present Binder-de Marco's conjecture concerning the dimension δ of μ. We then state known estimates in view of that formula.

- The maximal case δ = 4 has been also entirely characterized. We shall see that the higher dimensional context k=2 requires new tools.


Second talk :

We sketch the proof of :

1) k=1 : Mané's formula.

2) k=2 : the lower estimate in Binder-de Marco's conjecture.


Charles Favre   One dimensional non archimedean dynamics

The main goal is to describe some of the basic results in the study of the iteration of rational functions defined over a non archimedean field. This theory is quite new and presents many similarities with the complex case, although being much more algebraic in nature. We shall also try to explain some of the motivations that lead to such studies.


Jacques Fejoz   Moser's normal form theorem of vector fields in the neighborhood
of a Diophantine invariant torus, and consequences in KAM theory


The method of parameters reduces the persistence problem of many kinds of objects, to finite dimensional problems. This is true in particular for Diophantine invariant tori, in the theory of dynamical systems. This method can be traced back to Poincaré's proof of the existence of Linstedt series in Hamiltonian systems, at the formal level, and to a remarquable normal form theorem of Moser at the analytic level. Many invariant tori theorems of Kolmogorov, Arnold, Rüssmann, Herman and others can be deduced from Moser's normal form. We will present Moser's theorem and some of its consequences. In the second lecture we will sketch some ideas of the proofs.


Gabriel Paternain   Transparent connections

I will discuss the inverse problem of reconstructing a connection from knowledge about its parallel transport. A connection is said to be transparent if its parallel transport along every closed geodesic is the identity. I will explain how to describe all transparent SU(2)-connections over a closed negatively curved surface. This needs the Livsic theorem for cocycles over the geodesic flow with values in a compact Lie group and a suitable Bäcklund transformation that exploits the holomorphic structure induced by the connection.

If time permits I will also discuss transparent pairs (A,Φ), where A is a connection and Φ is a Higgs field.


Ricardo Pérez Marco   Applications of potential theory to holomorphic and hamiltonian dynamics

We will recall some basic potential and pluripotential theory, and the application to the total convergence or generic divergence of problems of small divisors in holomorphic families of holomorphic dynamical systems. The same tools will be applied to the problem of integrability of a hamiltonian system in the neighborhood of an equilibrium point, and to the convergence of Birkhoff normal form.
