Pointwise limits for sequences of orbital integrals

Claire Anantharaman-Delaroche — 2010

Colloquium Mathematicae

In 1967, Ross and Stromberg published a theorem about pointwise limits of orbital integrals for the left action of a locally compact group G on (G,ρ), where ρ is the right Haar measure. We study the same kind of problem, but more generally for left actions of G on any measure space (X,μ), which leave the σ-finite measure μ relatively invariant, in the sense that sμ = Δ(s)μ for every s ∈ G, where Δ is the modular function of G. As a consequence, we also obtain a generalization of a theorem of Civin...

On the zero-temperature or vanishing viscosity limit for certain Markov processes arising from Lagrangian dynamics

Nalini Anantharaman — 2004

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study the zero-temperature limit for Gibbs measures associated to Frenkel–Kontorova models on ( d ) / d . We prove that equilibrium states concentrate on configurations of minimal energy, and, in addition, must satisfy a variational principle involving metric entropy and Lyapunov exponents, a bit like in the Ruelle–Pesin inequality. Then we transpose the result to certain continuous-time stationary stochastic processes associated to the viscous Hamilton–Jacobi equation. As the viscosity vanishes, the...

Some decay properties for the damped wave equation on the torus

Nalini AnantharamanMatthieu Léautaud — 2012

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

This article is a proceedings version of the ongoing work [1], and has been the object of a talk of the second author during the Journées “Équations aux Dérivées Partielles” (Biarritz, 2012). We address the decay rates of the energy of the damped wave equation when the damping coefficient b does not satisfy the Geometric Control Condition (GCC). First, we give a link with the controllability of the associated Schrödinger equation. We...

Half-delocalization of eigenfunctions for the Laplacian on an Anosov manifold

Nalini AnantharamanStéphane Nonnenmacher — 2007

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study the high-energy eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold with Anosov geodesic flow. The localization of a semiclassical measure associated with a sequence of eigenfunctions is characterized by the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of this measure. We show that this entropy is necessarily bounded from below by a constant which, in the case of constant negative curvature, equals half the maximal entropy. In this sense, high-energy eigenfunctions are at least half-delocalized....
