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.

We give a characterization of complex and simple interval maps and circle maps (in the sense of positive or zero topological entropy respectively), formulated in terms of the description of the dynamics of the map on its chain recurrent set. We also describe the behavior of complex maps on their periodic points.

We show that for almost every ergodic $S$-integer dynamical system the radius of convergence of the dynamical zeta function is no larger than $\exp(-\frac{1}{2}h_{\rm top})<1$. In the arithmetic case almost every zeta function is irrational.We conjecture that for almost every ergodic $S$-integer dynamical system the radius of convergence of the zeta function is exactly $\exp(-h_{\rm top})<1$ and the zeta function is irrational.In an important geometric case (the $S$-integer systems corresponding to isometric extensions of the full $p$-shift or, more generally, linear algebraic cellular automata on the full $p$-shift) we show that the conjecture holds with the possible exception of at most two primes $p$.Finally, we explicitly describe the structure of $S$-integer dynamical systems as isometric extensions of (quasi-)hyperbolic dynamical systems.

It is shown how George D. Birkhoff's proof of the Poincaré Birkhoff theorem can be modified using ideas of H. Poincaré to give a rather precise lower bound on the number of components of the set of periodic points of the annulus. Some open problems related to this theorem are discussed.

A one-dimensional Gaussian map defined by a Gaussian function describes a discrete-time dynamical system. Chaotic behavior can be observed in both Gaussian and logistic maps. This study analyzes the bifurcation structure corresponding to the fixed and periodic points of a coupled system comprising two Gaussian maps. The bifurcation structure of a mutually coupled Gaussian map is more complex than that of a mutually coupled logistic map. In a coupled Gaussian map, it was confirmed that after a stable fixed point or stable periodic points became unstable through the bifurcation, the points were able to recover their stability while the system parameters were changing. Moreover, we investigated a parameter region in which symmetric and asymmetric stable fixed points coexisted. Asymmetric unstable fixed point was generated by the [Formula: see text]-type branching of a symmetric stable fixed point. The stability of the unstable fixed point could be recovered through period-doubling and tangent bifurcations. Furthermore, a homoclinic structure related to the occurrence of chaotic behavior and invariant closed curves caused by two-periodic points was observed. The mutually coupled Gaussian map was merely a two-dimensional dynamical system; however, chaotic itinerancy, known to be a characteristic property associated with high-dimensional dynamical systems, was observed. The bifurcation structure of the mutually coupled Gaussian map clearly elucidates the mechanism of chaotic itinerancy generation in the two-dimensional coupled map. We discussed this mechanism by comparing the bifurcation structures of the Gaussian and logistic maps.

This article investigates the complex phenomena of canard explosion with mixed-mode oscillations, observed from a fractional-order FitzHugh–Nagumo (FFHN) model. To rigorously analyze the dynamics of the FFHN model, a new mathematical notion, referred to as Hopf-like bifurcation (HLB), is introduced. HLB provides a precise definition for the change between a fixed point and an [Formula: see text]-asymptotically [Formula: see text]-periodic solution of the fractional-order dynamical system, as well as the stability of the FFHN model and the appearance of the HLB. The existence of canard oscillations in the neighborhoods of such HLB points are numerically investigated. Using a new algorithm, referred to as the global-local canard explosion search algorithm, the appearance of various patterns of solutions is revealed, with an increasing number of small-amplitude oscillations when two key parameters of the FFHN model are varied. The numbers of such oscillations versus the two parameters, respectively, are perfectly fitted using exponential functions. Finally, it is conjectured that chaos could occur in a two-dimensional fractional-order autonomous dynamical system, with the fractional order close to one. After all, the article demonstrates that the FFHN model is a very simple two-dimensional model with an incredible ability to present the complex dynamics of neurons.

Let $(X,\phi)$ be a hyperbolic dynamical system and let $(G,\delta)$ be a Polish group. Motivated by Nicol and Pollicott, and then by Parry we study conditions under which two Hölder maps $f,g: X\longrightarrow G$ are Hölder cohomologous.In the context of Nicol and Pollicott we show that if $f$ and $g$ are measurably cohomologous and the distortion of the metric $\delta $ by the cocycles defined by $f$ and $g$ is bounded in an appropriate sense, then $f$ and $g$ are Hölder cohomologous.Two further results extend the main theorems recently presented by Parry. Under the hypothesis of bounded distortion we show that, if $f$ and $g$ give equal weight to all periodic points of $\phi $, then $f$ and $g$ are Hölder cohomologous. If the metric $\delta $ is bi-invariant, and if the skew-product $\phi _f$ defined by $f$ is topologically transitive, then conjugacy of weights implies that $g$ is Hölder conjugate to $\alpha \cdot f$ for some isometric automorphism $\alpha $ of $G$. The weaker condition that $g$-weights of periodic points are close to the identity whenever their $f$-weights are close to the identity implies that $g$ is continuously cohomologous to a homomorphic image of $f$.

In the paper we study relations of rigidity, equicontinuity and pointwise recurrence between an invertible topological dynamical system (t.d.s.) $(X,T)$ and the t.d.s. $(K(X),T_{K})$ induced on the hyperspace $K(X)$ of all compact subsets of $X$, and provide some characterizations. Among other examples, we construct a minimal, non-equicontinuous, distal and uniformly rigid t.d.s. and a weakly mixing t.d.s. which induces dense periodic points on the hyperspace $K(X)$ but itself does not have dense distal points, solving in that way a few open questions from earlier articles by Dong, and Li, Yan and Ye.

We derive general bounds for the large time size of supnorm values ∥u(·,t)∥L∞(ℝ) of solutions to one-dimensional advection-diffusion equations ut+(b(x,t)u)x=uxx,x∈ℝ,t>0 with initial data u(·,0)∈Lp0(ℝ)∩L∞(ℝ) for some 1≤p0<∞ and arbitrary bounded advection speeds b(x,t), introducing new techniques based on suitable energy arguments. Some open problems and related results are also given.
