Convergence in evolutionary variational inequalities with hysteresis nonlinearities
We prove a generalization of the Douady-Oesterlé theorem on the upper bound of the Hausdorff dimension of an invariant set of a smooth map on an infinite dimensional manifold. It is assumed that the linearization of this map is a noncompact linear operator. A similar estimate is given for the Hausdorff dimension of an invariant set of a dynamical system generated by a differential equation on a Hilbert manifold.
Realization theory for linear input-output operators and frequency-domain methods for the solvability of Riccati operator equations are used for the stability and instability investigation of a class of nonlinear Volterra integral equations in a Hilbert space. The key idea is to consider, similar to the Volterra equation, a time-invariant control system generated by an abstract ODE in a weighted Sobolev space, which has the same stability properties as the Volterra equation.
We consider parameter-dependent cocycles generated by nonautonomous difference equations. One of them is a discrete-time cardiac conduction model. For this system with a control variable a cocycle formulation is presented. We state a theorem about upper Hausdorff dimension estimates for cocycle attractors which includes some regulating function. We also consider the existence of invariant measures for cocycle systems using some elements of Perron-Frobenius theory and discuss the bifurcation of parameter-dependent...
