Abstract

The goal of this paper is the exact computation of the degrees deg(fⁿ) of the iterates of birational maps f: ℙ^N \dashrightarrow ℙ^N. In the preceding companion paper, a new method has been proposed based on the use of indices of polynomials associated to the local blow-ups used to resolve contractions of hypersurfaces by f, and on the control of the factorization of pull-backs of polynomials. This leads to recurrence relations for the degrees and the indices. We apply this method to several illustrative examples in three dimensions. These examples demonstrate the flexibility of the method which, in particular, does not require the construction of an algebraically stable lift of f, unlike the previously known methods based on the Picard group.
