Abstract

In this survey, I summarize some work towards understanding of differential rigidity and smooth conjugacy in one-dimensional dynamics. In particular, I focus on those dynamical systems that have critical points and on those dynamical systems that have only \({C}^{1+\alpha },0 < \alpha < 1\), smoothness.
