Abstract

A diffeomorphism f has a heterodimensional cycle if there are hyperbolic sets Λ and Σ with different indices (dimension of the unstable bundle) such that the unstable manifold of Λ meets the stable one of Σ and vice-versa. This cycle has co-index one if index(Λ)=index(Σ)±1 and is robust if, for every g close to f, the continuations of Λ and Σ for g have a cycle. In the C 1-setting, we discuss the generation of robust heterodimensional cycles by heterodimensional ones and obtain some consequences of this phenomenon for tame dynamics.
