We give an alternative proof of the stable manifold theorem as an application of the (right and left) inverse mapping theorem on a space of sequences. We investigate the diffeomorphism class of the global stable manifold, a problem which in the general Banach setting gives rise to subtle questions about the possibility of extending germs of diffeomorphisms.

The group of real analytic diffeomorphisms of a real analytic manifold is a rich group. It is dense in the group of smooth diffeomorphisms. Herman showed that for the $n$-dimensional torus, its identity component is a simple group. For $U\left(1\right)$ fibered manifolds, for manifolds admitting special semi-free $U\left(1\right)$ actions and for 2- or 3-dimensional manifolds with nontrivial $U\left(1\right)$ actions, we show that the identity component of the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms is a perfect group.

We report on a recent result establishing that trajectories of the cubic Szegő equation in Sobolev spaces with high regularity are generically unbounded, and moreover that, on solutions generated by suitable bounded subsets of initial data, every polynomial bound in time fails for high Sobolev norms. The proof relies on an instability phenomenon for a new nonlinear Fourier transform describing explicitly the solutions to the initial value problem, which is inherited from the Lax pair structure enjoyed...

We investigate the properties of the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor of the iterated function system (IFS) {γx,λx,λx+1}. Since two maps have the same fixed point, there are very complicated overlaps, and it is not possible to directly apply known techniques. We give a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of the attractor for Lebesgue almost all parameters (γ,λ), γ < λ. This result only holds for almost all parameters: we find a dense set of parameters (γ,λ) for which the Hausdorff dimension...

We study non-invertible piecewise hyperbolic maps in the plane. The Hausdorff dimension of the attractor is calculated in terms of the Lyapunov exponents, provided that the map satisfies a transversality condition. Explicit examples of maps for which this condition holds are given.

We give explicit formulas for Hadamard's coefficients in terms of the tau-function of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. We show that some of the basic properties of these coefficients can be easily derived from these formulas.

We prove that the height of a foliated surface of Kodaira dimension zero belongs to (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12). We also construct an explicit projective model. for Brunella's very special foliation.

Bombieri and Zannier established lower and upper bounds for the limit infimum of the Weil height in fields of totally $p$-adic numbers and generalizations thereof. In this paper, we use potential theoretic techniques to generalize the upper bounds from their paper and, under the assumption of integrality, to improve slightly upon their bounds.

This paper is devoted to the helices processes, i.e. the solutions H : ℝ × Ω → ℝd, (t, ω) ↦ H(t, ω) of the helix equation $\begin{array}{ccc}\mathit{H}\mathrm{\left(}\mathrm{0}\mathit{,\omega }\mathrm{\right)}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{0}\mathrm{;} \mathit{H}\mathrm{(}\mathit{s}\mathrm{+}\mathit{t,\omega }\mathrm{)}\mathrm{=}\mathit{H}\mathrm{\left(}\mathit{s,}\mathrm{\Phi }\mathrm{\right(}\mathit{t,\omega }\mathrm{\left)}\mathrm{\right)}\mathrm{+}\mathit{H}\mathrm{\left(}\mathit{t,\omega }\mathrm{\right)}& & \end{array}$ where Φ : ℝ × Ω → Ω, (t, ω) ↦ Φ(t, ω) is a dynamical system on a measurable space (Ω, ℱ).More precisely, we investigate dominated solutions and non differentiable solutions of the helix equation. For the last case, the Wiener helix plays a fundamental role. Moreover, some relations with the cocycle equation defined...

The Cauchy problem for the higher order equations in the mKdV hierarchy is investigated with data in the spaces $${\widehat{H}}_s^r\left(ℝ\right)$$ defined by the norm $${∥v_0∥}_{{\widehat{H}}_s^r\left(ℝ\right)}:={∥{〈\xi 〉}^s\widehat{v_0}∥}_{L_{\xi }^{r^{\text{'}}}},〈\xi 〉={\left(1+{\xi }^2\right)}^{\frac{1}{2}},\frac{1}{r}+\frac{1}{r^{\text{'}}}=1$$ . Local well-posedness for the jth equation is shown in the parameter range 2 ≥ 1, r > 1, s ≥ $$\frac{2j-1}{2r^{\text{'}}}$$ . The proof uses an appropriate variant of the Fourier restriction norm method. A counterexample is discussed to show that the Cauchy problem for equations of this type is in general ill-posed in the C 0-uniform sense, if s < $$\frac{2j-1}{2r^{\text{'}}}$$ . The results for r = 2 - so far in...

e prove that the hyperbolic Hausdorff dimension of Fr Ω, the boundary of the simply connected immediate basin of attraction Ω to an attracting periodic point of a rational mapping of the Riemann sphere, which is not a finite Blaschke product in some holomorphic coordinates, or a 2:1 factor of a Blaschke product, is larger than 1. We prove a "local version" of this theorem, for a boundary repelling to the side of the domain. The results extend an analogous fact for polynomials...

We give an explicit construction of the trace on the algebra of quantum observables on a symplectiv orbifold and propose an index formula.

Calculus for observables in a space of functions from an abstract set to the unit interval is developed and then the individual ergodic theorem is proved.
