# Dynamical systems on affine schemes#

An endomorphism of an affine scheme or subscheme determined by polynomials or rational functions.

The main constructor function is given by DynamicalSystem_affine. The constructor function can take polynomials, rational functions, or morphisms from which to construct a dynamical system. If the domain is not specified, it is constructed. However, if you plan on working with points or subvarieties in the domain, it recommended to specify the domain.

The initialization checks are always performed by the constructor functions. It is possible, but not recommended, to skip these checks by calling the class initialization directly.

class sage.dynamics.arithmetic_dynamics.affine_ds.DynamicalSystem_affine(polys_or_rat_fncts, domain)#

An endomorphism of affine schemes determined by rational functions.

Warning

You should not create objects of this class directly because no type or consistency checking is performed. The preferred method to construct such dynamical systems is to use DynamicalSystem_affine() function.

INPUT:

• morphism_or_polys – a SchemeMorphism, a polynomial, a rational function, or a list or tuple of polynomials or rational functions

• domain – optional affine space or subscheme of such; the following combinations of morphism_or_polys and domain are meaningful:

• morphism_or_polys is a SchemeMorphism; domain is ignored in this case

• morphism_or_polys is a list of polynomials or rational functions that define a rational endomorphism of domain

• morphism_or_polys is a list of polynomials or rational functions and domain is unspecified; domain is then taken to be the affine space of appropriate dimension over the common base ring, if one exists, of the elements of morphism_or_polys

• morphism_or_polys is a single polynomial or rational function; domain is ignored and assumed to be the 1-dimensional affine space over the base ring of morphism_or_polys

weil_restriction()#

Compute the Weil restriction of this morphism over some extension field.

If the field is a finite field, then this computes the Weil restriction to the prime subfield.

A Weil restriction of scalars - denoted $$Res_{L/k}$$ - is a functor which, for any finite extension of fields $$L/k$$ and any algebraic variety $$X$$ over $$L$$, produces another corresponding variety $$Res_{L/k}(X)$$, defined over $$k$$. It is useful for reducing questions about varieties over large fields to questions about more complicated varieties over smaller fields. Since it is a functor it also applied to morphisms. In particular, the functor applied to a morphism gives the equivalent morphism from the Weil restriction of the domain to the Weil restriction of the codomain.

OUTPUT:

Scheme morphism on the Weil restrictions of the domain and codomain of the map.

cyclegraph()#

Return the digraph of all orbits of this morphism mod $$p$$.

For subschemes, only points on the subscheme whose image are also on the subscheme are in the digraph.

OUTPUT: a digraph

EXAMPLES:

sage: P.<x,y> = AffineSpace(GF(5), 2)
sage: f = DynamicalSystem_affine([x^2-y, x*y+1])
sage: f.cyclegraph()
Looped digraph on 25 vertices

sage: P.<x> = AffineSpace(GF(3^3, 't'), 1)
sage: f = DynamicalSystem_affine([x^2-1])
sage: f.cyclegraph()
Looped digraph on 27 vertices

sage: P.<x,y> = AffineSpace(GF(7), 2)
sage: X = P.subscheme(x-y)
sage: f = DynamicalSystem_affine([x^2, y^2], domain=X)
sage: f.cyclegraph()
Looped digraph on 7 vertices

orbit_structure(P)#

Every point is preperiodic over a finite field.

This function returns the pair $$[m,n]$$ where $$m$$ is the preperiod and $$n$$ is the period of the point P by this map.

INPUT:

• P – a point in the map’s domain

OUTPUT: a list $$[m, n]$$ of integers

EXAMPLES:

sage: A.<x,y> = AffineSpace(GF(13), 2)
sage: f = DynamicalSystem_affine([x^2 - 1, y^2])
sage: f.orbit_structure(A(2, 3))

sage: A.<x,y,z> = AffineSpace(GF(49, 't'), 3)
sage: f = DynamicalSystem_affine([x^2 - z, x - y + z, y^2 - x^2])
sage: f.orbit_structure(A(1, 1, 2))
