When the expansion is exponential, the arithmetic genus of an invariant curve is at most one. This implies severe constraints on both the type and number of irreducible components of the curve. In the case of an invariant curve with genus equal to one, we show that there is an associated invariant meromorphic two form.18 PagesAlgebraic GeometryDynamical Systems32H50 (Primary), 14E07, 14H45 (Secondary)text
