On periodic orbits of polynomial maps

Abstract

We prove the existence of an effective universal upper bound for the order of any integral periodic orbit of any integral algebraic dynamical system in a fixed ambient space. Using this, we demonstrate the decidability of periodicity in arbitrary finitely generated algebraic dynamical systems over fields of characteristic zero.
