Regularization of currents and entropy

Let T be a positive closed (p,p)-current of mass 1 on a compact Kahler manifold X. Then, there exist a constant c, independent of T, and smooth positive closed (p,p)-currents Tn and Sn of mass c such that Tn-Sn converge weakly to T. We also extend this result to positive pluriharmonic currents. Then we study the wedge product of positive closed (1,1)-currents having continuous potential with positive pluriharmonic currents. As an application, we give an estimate of the topological entropy of meromorphic maps on compact Kahler manifolds.Comment: 17 pages, to appear in Ann. Sci. Ecol. Norm. Su

Dynamics of regular birational maps in P^k

We develop the study of some spaces of currents of bidegree (p,p). As an application we construct the equilibrium measure for a large class of birational maps of P^k as intersection of Green currents. We show that these currents are extremal and that the corresponding measure is mixing.Comment: 17 pages, to appear in J. Funct. Analysi
