On Conley's fundamental theorem of dynamical systems.
This paper deals with some characterizations of gradient-like continuous random dynamical systems (RDS). More precisely, we establish an equivalence with the existence of random continuous section or with the existence of continuous and strict Liapunov function. However and contrary to the deterministic case, parallelizable RDS appear as a particular case of gradient-like RDS.The obtained results are generalizations of well-known analogous theorems in the framework of deterministic dynamical systems....
We investigate the Lyapunov stability implying asymptotic behavior of a nonlinear ODE system describing stress paths for a particular hypoplastic constitutive model of the Kolymbas type under proportional, arbitrarily large monotonic coaxial deformations. The attractive stress path is found analytically, and the asymptotic convergence to the attractor depending on the direction of proportional strain paths and material parameters of the model is proved rigorously with the help of a Lyapunov function....
Several results on stability in impulsive dynamical systems are proved. The first main result gives equivalent conditions for stability of a compact set. In particular, a generalization of Ura's theorem to the case of impulsive systems is shown. The second main theorem says that under some additional assumptions every component of a stable set is stable. Also, several examples indicating possible complicated phenomena in impulsive systems are presented.
This paper is concerned with strong chain recurrence introduced by Easton. We investigate the depth of the transfinite sequence of nested, closed invariant sets obtained by iterating the process of taking strong chain recurrent points, which is a related form of the central sequence due to Birkhoff. We also note the existence of a Lyapunov function which is decreasing off the strong chain recurrent set. As an application, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of the strong...
A solution of the Feigenbaum functional equation is called a Feigenbaum map. We investigate the likely limit set (i.e. the maximal attractor in the sense of Milnor) of a non-unimodal Feigenbaum map, prove that it is a minimal set that attracts almost all points, and then estimate its Hausdorff dimension. Finally, for every s ∈ (0,1), we construct a non-unimodal Feigenbaum map with a likely limit set whose Hausdorff dimension is s.
We introduce and study the Lyapunov numbers-quantitative measures of the sensitivity of a dynamical system (X,f) given by a compact metric space X and a continuous map f: X → X. In particular, we prove that for a minimal topologically weakly mixing system all Lyapunov numbers are the same.
We extend the recent results from the class of continuous maps of the interval to the class of continuous maps of the circle. Among others, we give a characterization of -limit sets and give a characterization of sets of transitive points for these maps.
Soit un homéomorphisme du plan qui préserve l’orientation et qui a un point périodique de période . Nous montrons qu’il existe un point fixe tel que le nombre d’enlacement de et ne soit pas nul. En d’autres termes, le nombre de rotation de l’orbite de dans l’anneau est un élément non nul de . Ceci donne une réponse positive à une question posée par John Franks.
A pullback incremental attraction, a nonautonomous version of incremental stability, is introduced for nonautonomous systems that may have unbounded limiting solutions. Its characterisation by a Lyapunov function is indicated.
We study the complexity of the flow in the region of attraction of an isolated invariant set. More precisely, we define the instablity depth, which is an ordinal and measures how far an isolated invariant set is from being asymptotically stable within its region of attraction. We provide upper and lower bounds of the instability depth in certain cases.
This paper addresses the problem of robust fault-tolerant control design scheme for a class of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems subject to interval time-varying delay and external disturbances. First, by using improved delay partitioning approach, a novel n-steps iterative learning fault estimation observer under H ∞ constraint is constructed to achieve estimation of actuator fault. Then, based on the online estimation information, a fuzzy dynamic output feedback fault-tolerant controller considered...
By means of the fixed-point methods and the properties of the -pseudo almost periodic functions, we prove the existence, uniqueness, and exponential stability of the -pseudo almost periodic solutions for some models of recurrent neural networks with mixed delays and time-varying coefficients, where is a positive measure. A numerical example is given to illustrate our main results.
By a dynamical system we mean the action of the semigroup on a metrizable topological space induced by a continuous selfmap . Let denote the set of all compatible metrics on the space . Our main objective is to show that a selfmap of a compact space is a Banach contraction relative to some if and only if there exists some which, regarded as a -cocycle of the system , is a coboundary.
In this paper, we discuss the properties of limit sets of subsets and attractors in a compact metric space. It is shown that the -limit set of is the limit point of the sequence in and also a quasi-attractor is the limit point of attractors with respect to the Hausdorff metric. It is shown that if a component of an attractor is not an attractor, then it must be a real quasi-attractor.
For a class of one-dimensional holomorphic maps f of the Riemann sphere we prove that for a wide class of potentials φ the topological pressure is entirely determined by the values of φ on the repelling periodic points of f. This is a version of a classical result of Bowen for hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in the holomorphic non-uniformly hyperbolic setting.
