François Berteloot - Professor of Mathematics, Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse

My research is primarily situated at the intersection of complex analysis and dynamical systems. I am particularly interested in the study of holomorphic families of rational maps, bifurcation currents, and Lyapunov exponents, utilizing tools from pluripotential theory and non-standard analysis to understand dynamical stability.

I am currently a Professor of Mathematics at the Toulouse Institute of Mathematics and member of the international faculty for the International Mathematics Master in Algeria.

Research Themes

  • Holomorphic dynamics in one and several variables
  • Pluripotential theory and complex geometry
  • Bifurcation currents and Lyapunov exponents
  • Structural stability of endomorphisms of ℙᵏ
  • Lattès maps and scaling methods
  • Proper holomorphic mappings and boundary behavior of domains in ℂ²

Selected Strengths

The Mandelbrot set is the shadow of a Julia set

Joint work with Tien-Cuong Dinh. Working within the polynomial quadratic family, we introduce a new point of view on bifurcations which naturally allows to see the seat of bifurcations as the projection of a Julia set of a complex dynamical system in dimension three.
