Linear programming interpretations of Mather’s variational principle

L. C. Evans, D. Gomes (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We discuss some implications of linear programming for Mather theory [13, 14, 15] and its finite dimensional approximations. We find that the complementary slackness condition of duality theory formally implies that the Mather set lies in an n -dimensional graph and as well predicts the relevant nonlinear PDE for the “weak KAM” theory of Fathi [6, 7, 8, 5].

We find that the complementary slackness condition of duality theory formally implies that the Mather set lies in an n-dimensional graph and as well predicts the relevant nonlinear PDE for the “weak KAM” theory of Fathi [5-8].

Linear response for smooth deformations of generic nonuniformly hyperbolic unimodal maps

Viviane Baladi, Daniel Smania (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We consider C 2 families t f t of  C 4 unimodal maps f t whose critical point is slowly recurrent, and we show that the unique absolutely continuous invariant measure μ t of  f t depends differentiably on  t , as a distribution of order 1 . The proof uses transfer operators on towers whose level boundaries are mollified via smooth cutoff functions, in order to avoid artificial discontinuities. We give a new representation of  μ t for a Benedicks-Carleson map f t , in terms of a single smooth function and the inverse branches...

Linearization of germs: regular dependence on the multiplier

Stefano Marmi, Carlo Carminati (2008)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We prove that the linearization of a germ of holomorphic map of the type F λ ( z ) = λ ( z + O ( z 2 ) ) has a 𝒞 1 -holomorphic dependence on the multiplier λ . 𝒞 1 -holomorphic functions are 𝒞 1 -Whitney smooth functions, defined on compact subsets and which belong to the kernel of the ¯ operator. The linearization is analytic for | λ | 1 and the unit circle  𝕊 1 appears as a natural boundary (because of resonances,i.e.roots of unity). However the linearization is still defined at most points of  𝕊 1 , namely those points which lie “far enough from...

Linearization of Poisson actions and singular values of matrix products

Anton Alekseev, Eckhard Meinrenken, Chris Woodward (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We prove that the linearization functor from the category of Hamiltonian K -actions with group-valued moment maps in the sense of Lu, to the category of ordinary Hamiltonian K - actions, preserves products up to symplectic isomorphism. As an application, we give a new proof of the Thompson conjecture on singular values of matrix products and extend this result to the case of real matrices. We give a formula for the Liouville volume of these spaces and obtain from it a hyperbolic version of the Duflo...

Lissajous knots and billiard knots

Vaughan Jones, Józef Przytycki (1998)

Banach Center Publications

We show that Lissajous knots are equivalent to billiard knots in a cube. We consider also knots in general 3-dimensional billiard tables. We analyse symmetry of knots in billiard tables and show in particular that the Alexander polynomial of a Lissajous knot is a square modulo 2.
