Abstract: We give a detailed description of the dynamics of a family of birational mappings of the plane. The organizing theme of our analysis is that this family is essentially conjugate to the golden mean subshift.

Review text

This extended paper deals with the 1-parameter family of birational mappings of the plane \[ f_a(x,y)=\left(y\frac{x+a}{x-1}, x+a-1\right), \quad a\in\mathbb{R} \] is a parameter. By combining complex intersection theory and techniques from smooth dynamical systems, the authors give an essentially complete account of the behaviour of both wandering and nonwandering orbits. An abstract model for the dynamics of the mapping \(f_a\) on the nonwandering set \(\Omega\) is the so-called golden mean subshift \((\sigma,\Sigma)\). That is, \(\sigma\) is the shift map and \(\Sigma\) is the topological space of bi-infinite sequences of 0's and 1's such that ``1 is always followed by ``0. The entropy of this subshift is the logarithm of the golden mean \(\Phi=(1+\sqrt 5)/2\). The authors work simultaneously with the real map \(f_a\) and its complexification \(\widetilde f_a\), using the results from the intersection theory of complex subvarieties.
