We study the rotation set of these maps and the periods of periodic points having a given rotation number. We show that, if the graph has a single loop $S$ then the set of rotation numbers of points in $S$ has some properties similar to the rotation set of a circle map; in particular it is a compact interval and for every rational $\\alpha$ in this interval there exists a periodic point of rotation number $\\alpha$. For a special class of maps called combed maps, the rotation set displays the same nice properties as the continuous degree one circle maps.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-01-06T10:06:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37E45", "37E25", "54H20", "37E15" ], "keywords": [ "rotation number", "graph maps", "periodic point", "circle map", "rotation set displays" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
