I desperately need to read the paper [1] before meeting a would-be supervisor, but with limited undergraduate knowledge that I have like Aluffi's *Algebra* and Churchill's *Complex Analysis*, not even one sentence of the paper is readable to me, so I even don't know what area of mathematics is it about! 


What is the necessary prerequisite knowledge to be able to understand the mentioned paper and the best introductory books written about? Thank you!

On the 2002 paper "Dynamics of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^k$" by Guedj and Sibony
This paper is about holomorphic dynamics in high dimensions. I recommend to begin the
study of holomorphic dynamics from the one-dimensional case, and the best book on
the subject is J. Milnor, Dynamics in one complex variable, <https://arxiv.org/abs/math/9201272>. After that you may read the two survey articles mentioned in the first paragraph of the paper you want to read.


You may also need some background in pluripotential theory, the main technical tool in multidimensional dynamics theories.
