Quantification géométrique et réduction symplectique
Under some mild condition, a random walk in the plane is recurrent. In particular each trajectory is dense, and a natural question is how much time one needs to approach a given small neighbourhood of the origin. We address this question in the case of some extended dynamical systems similar to planar random walks, including ℤ2-extension of mixing subshifts of finite type. We define a pointwise recurrence rate and relate it to the dimension of the process, and establish a result of convergence in...
The quantization dimension function for the image measure of a shift-invariant ergodic measure with bounded distortion on a self-conformal set is determined, and its relationship to the temperature function of the thermodynamic formalism arising in multifractal analysis is established.
Let P be a Markov kernel on a measurable space E with countably generated σ-algebra, let w:E→[1, +∞[ such that Pw≤Cw with C≥0, and let be the space of measurable functions onE satisfying ‖f‖w=sup{w(x)−1|f(x)|, x∈E}<+∞. We prove that Pis quasi-compact on if and only if, for all , contains a subsequence converging in toΠf=∑di=1μi(f)vi, where the vi’s are non-negative bounded measurable functions on E and the μi’s are probability distributions on E. In particular, when the space of...
In these notes, we will describe recent work on globally solving quasilinear wave equations in the presence of trapped rays, on Kerr-de Sitter space, and obtaining the asymptotic behavior of solutions. For the associated linear problem without trapping, one would consider a global, non-elliptic, Fredholm framework; in the presence of trapping the same framework is available for spaces of growing functions only. In order to solve the quasilinear problem we thus combine these frameworks with the normally...
A lattice model with exponential interaction, was proposed and integrated by M. Toda in the 1960s; it was then extensively studied as one of the completely integrable (differential-difference) equations by algebro-geometric methods, which produced both quasi-periodic solutions in terms of theta functions of hyperelliptic curves and periodic solutions defined on suitable Jacobians by the Lax-pair method. In this work, we revisit Toda’s original approach to give solutions of the Toda lattice in terms...
