Anosov Endomorphisms on the 2-torus: Regularity of foliations and rigidity

Abstract

We provide sufficient conditions for smooth conjugacy between two Anosov endomorphisms on the 2-torus. From that, we also explore how the regularity of the stable and unstable foliations implies smooth conjugacy inside a class of endomorphisms including, for instance, the ones with constant Jacobian. As a consequence, we have in this class a characterization of smooth conjugacy between special Anosov endomorphisms and their linearizations.
