The dynamical Manin–Mumford conjecture for complex polynomial automorphisms
Let be a complex polynomial automorphism of Hénon type of the affine plane, and let be an irreducible algebraic curve containing infinitely many periodic points of . An involution is an automorphism satisfying . Dynamical Manin–Mumford conjecture. There exists an involution of the affine plane whose set of fixed points is and an integer such that
Reversible polynomial automorphisms provide the motivating examples: intersections of the fixed curve of a reversing involution with its iterated inverse images yield infinitely many periodic points. The conjecture gives a converse classification for curves containing infinitely many periodic points; the supplied text does not state a resolution.
