32 Resolution of PI There are nine base points: b 0 : u 031 =0,u 03 =0 b 1 : u 111 =0,u 11 =0 b : u 11 =0,u 1 =0 b 3 : u 311 =4,u 31 =0 b 4 : u 411 =4,u 41 =0 b 5 : u 511 =0,u 51 =0 b 6 : u 611 =0,u 61 =0 b 7 : u 711 = 3,u 71 =0 b 8 : u 811 = 8 5 z),u 81 =0 Only the last one differs from the elliptic case.

45 Initial-Value Space For each t, let S9t) be the resolved space. The union S = [ tc S 9 t) is Okamoto s space. The union It) = 8[ i=0 L 9 i) i t) is the infinity set. For each solution wt) in S9t)\It), define the limit set w ={s S 9 1)\I1)s.t. 9 t j!1, wt j )! s, as j!1}

46 Global results for PI, PII, PIV The infinity set is a repeller for the flow. The complex limit set is non-empty, connected and compact. Every solution of PI, every solution of PII whose limit set is not {0}, and every non-rational solution of PIV intersects the last exceptional lines) infinitely many times infinite number of movable poles and movable zeroes. Duistermaat & J 011); Howes & J 014); J & Radnovic 015, 016, 017)

47 Ingredients of proofs Use the energy and Jacobians of each chart as a measure of the distance between the flow and the exceptional lines. Estimate the domain corresponding to each chart in which the solution is analytic. Use compactness to deduce results about the limit set. E = u u u 1 J ij ij ij1 1

48 Summary Global dynamics of solutions of nonlinear equations, whether they are differential or discrete, can be found through geometry. Geometry provides the only analytic approach available in C for discrete equations. Tantalising questions about finite properties of solutions remain open.
