Abstract
Let K be a local field with valuation v and residue field k. We study two dynamical systems defined on K that can be considered as affine. The first one is the dynamical system (K,Ï) where Ï(x)=xph+a (hâN,aâK,v(a)⩾0) and p is the characteristic of k. We prove that the minimal subsets of (K,Ï) are cycles. For K of finite characteristic, the action of the Carlitz module on K gives a dynamical system that is similar to an affine system in characteristic 0.
