Commutativity of set-valued cosine families

Andrzej Smajdor, Wilhelmina Smajdor (2014)

Open Mathematics

Let K be a closed convex cone with nonempty interior in a real Banach space and let cc(K) denote the family of all nonempty convex compact subsets of K. If F t: t ≥ 0 is a regular cosine family of continuous additive set-valued functions F t: K → cc(K) such that x ∈ F t(x) for t ≥ 0 and x ∈ K, then F t F s ( x ) = F s F t ( x ) f o r s , t 0 a n d x K .

Commuting functions and simultaneous Abel equations

W. Jarczyk, K. Łoskot, M. C. Zdun (1994)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The system of Abel equations α(ft(x)) = α(x) + λ(t), t ∈ T, is studied under the general assumption that f t are pairwise commuting homeomorphisms of a real interval and have no fixed points (T is an arbitrary non-empty set). A result concerning embeddability of rational iteration groups in continuous groups is proved as a simple consequence of the obtained theorems.

Competitive Exclusion in a Discrete Stage-Structured Two Species Model

A. S. Ackleh, P. Zhang (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We develop a stage-structured model that describes the dynamics of two competing species each of which have sexual and clonal reproduction. This is typical of many plants including irises. We first analyze the dynamical behavior of a single species model. We show that when the inherent net reproductive number is smaller than one then the population will go to extinction and if it is larger than one then an interior equilibrium exists and it is globally asymptotically stable. Then we analyze...

Composite rational functions expressible with few terms

Clemens Fuchs, Umberto Zannier (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider a rational function f which is ‘lacunary’ in the sense that it can be expressed as the ratio of two polynomials (not necessarily coprime) having each at most a given number of terms. Then we look at the possible decompositions f ( x ) = g ( h ( x ) ) , where g , h are rational functions of degree larger than 1. We prove that, apart from certain exceptional cases which we completely describe, the degree of g is bounded only in terms of (and we provide explicit bounds). This supports and quantifies the intuitive...

Concave iteration semigroups of linear continuous set-valued functions

Andrzej Smajdor, Wilhelmina Smajdor (2012)

Open Mathematics

Let F t: t ≥ 0 be a concave iteration semigroup of linear continuous set-valued functions defined on a convex cone K with nonempty interior in a Banach space X with values in cc(K). If we assume that the Hukuhara differences F 0(x) − F t (x) exist for x ∈ K and t > 0, then D t F t (x) = (−1)F t ((−1)G(x)) for x ∈ K and t ≥ 0, where D t F t (x) denotes the derivative of F t (x) with respect to t and G ( x ) = lim s 0 F 0 x - F s x F 0 x - F s x - s - s for x ∈ K.

Concave iteration semigroups of linear set-valued functions

Jolanta Olko (1999)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We consider a concave iteration semigroup of linear continuous set-valued functions defined on a closed convex cone in a separable Banach space. We prove that such an iteration semigroup has a selection which is also an iteration semigroup of linear continuous functions. Moreover it is majorized by an "exponential" family of linear continuous set-valued functions.

Concentration of measure on product spaces with applications to Markov processes

Gordon Blower, François Bolley (2006)

Studia Mathematica

For a stochastic process with state space some Polish space, this paper gives sufficient conditions on the initial and conditional distributions for the joint law to satisfy Gaussian concentration inequalities and transportation inequalities. In the case of the Euclidean space m , there are sufficient conditions for the joint law to satisfy a logarithmic Sobolev inequality. In several cases, the constants obtained are of optimal order of growth with respect to the number of random variables, or are...
