A classification of inverse limit spaces of tent maps with periodic critical points

Lois Kailhofer (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We work within the one-parameter family of symmetric tent maps, where the slope is the parameter. Given two such tent maps f a , f b with periodic critical points, we show that the inverse limit spaces ( a , f a ) and ( b , g b ) are not homeomorphic when a ≠ b. To obtain our result, we define topological substructures of a composant, called “wrapping points” and “gaps”, and identify properties of these substructures preserved under a homeomorphism.

On the Extension of Certain Maps with Values in Spheres

Carlos Biasi, Alice K. M. Libardi, Pedro L. Q. Pergher, Stanisław Spież (2008)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let E be an oriented, smooth and closed m-dimensional manifold with m ≥ 2 and V ⊂ E an oriented, connected, smooth and closed (m-2)-dimensional submanifold which is homologous to zero in E. Let S n - 2 S be the standard inclusion, where Sⁿ is the n-sphere and n ≥ 3. We prove the following extension result: if h : V S n - 2 is a smooth map, then h extends to a smooth map g: E → Sⁿ transverse to S n - 2 and with g - 1 ( S n - 2 ) = V . Using this result, we give a new and simpler proof of a theorem of Carlos Biasi related to the ambiental...

Existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for odd-order ordinary differential equations

Yongxiang Li, He Yang (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The paper deals with the existence and uniqueness of 2π-periodic solutions for the odd-order ordinary differential equation u ( 2 n + 1 ) = f ( t , u , u ' , . . . , u ( 2 n ) ) , where f : × 2 n + 1 is continuous and 2π-periodic with respect to t. Some new conditions on the nonlinearity f ( t , x , x , . . . , x 2 n ) to guarantee the existence and uniqueness are presented. These conditions extend and improve the ones presented by Cong [Appl. Math. Lett. 17 (2004), 727-732].

Generalized c -almost periodic type functions in n

M. Kostić (2021)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In this paper, we analyze multi-dimensional quasi-asymptotically c -almost periodic functions and their Stepanov generalizations as well as multi-dimensional Weyl c -almost periodic type functions. We also analyze several important subclasses of the class of multi-dimensional quasi-asymptotically c -almost periodic functions and reconsider the notion of semi- c -periodicity in the multi-dimensional setting, working in the general framework of Lebesgue spaces with variable exponent. We provide...

Three periodic solutions for a class of higher-dimensional functional differential equations with impulses

Yongkun Li, Changzhao Li, Juan Zhang (2010)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

By using the well-known Leggett–Williams multiple fixed point theorem for cones, some new criteria are established for the existence of three positive periodic solutions for a class of n-dimensional functional differential equations with impulses of the form ⎧y’(t) = A(t)y(t) + g(t,yt), t t j , j ∈ ℤ, ⎨ ⎩ y ( t j ) = y ( t ¯ j ) + I j ( y ( t j ) ) , where A ( t ) = ( a i j ( t ) ) n × n is a nonsingular matrix with continuous real-valued entries.

Stable periodic solutions in scalar periodic differential delay equations

Anatoli Ivanov, Sergiy Shelyag (2023)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

A class of nonlinear simple form differential delay equations with a T -periodic coefficient and a constant delay τ > 0 is considered. It is shown that for an arbitrary value of the period T > 4 τ - d 0 , for some d 0 > 0 , there is an equation in the class such that it possesses an asymptotically stable T -period solution. The periodic solutions are constructed explicitly for the piecewise constant nonlinearities and the periodic coefficients involved, by reduction of the problem to one-dimensional maps. The...

Existence of nonnegative periodic solutions in neutral integro-differential equations with functional delay

Imene Soulahia, Abdelouaheb Ardjouni, Ahcene Djoudi (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The fixed point theorem of Krasnoselskii and the concept of large contractions are employed to show the existence of a periodic solution of a nonlinear integro-differential equation with variable delay x ' ( t ) = - t - τ ( t ) t a ( t , s ) g ( x ( s ) ) d s + d d t Q ( t , x ( t - τ ( t ) ) ) + G ( t , x ( t ) , x ( t - τ ( t ) ) ) . We transform this equation and then invert it to obtain a sum of two mappings one of which is completely continuous and the other is a large contraction. We choose suitable conditions for τ , g , a , Q and G to show that this sum of mappings fits into the framework of a modification of...

On the uniqueness of periodic decomposition

Viktor Harangi (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let a , . . . , a k be arbitrary nonzero real numbers. An ( a , . . . , a k ) -decomposition of a function f:ℝ → ℝ is a sum f + + f k = f where f i : is an a i -periodic function. Such a decomposition is not unique because there are several solutions of the equation h + + h k = 0 with h i : a i -periodic. We will give solutions of this equation with a certain simple structure (trivial solutions) and study whether there exist other solutions or not. If not, we say that the ( a , . . . , a k ) -decomposition is essentially unique. We characterize those periods for which essential...

On maps preserving connectedness and/or compactness

István Juhász, Jan van Mill (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We call a function f : X Y P-preserving if, for every subspace A X with property P, its image f ( A ) also has property P. Of course, all continuous maps are both compactness- and connectedness-preserving and the natural question about when the converse of this holds, i.e. under what conditions such a map is continuous, has a long history. Our main result is that any nontrivial product function, i.e. one having at least two nonconstant factors, that has connected domain, T 1 range, and is connectedness-preserving...

The periodic Ambrosetti-Prodi problem for nonlinear perturbations of the p-Laplacian

Jean Mawhin (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove an Ambrosetti–Prodi type result for the periodic solutions of the equation ( | u ' | p 2 u ' ) ) ' + f ( u ) u ' + g ( x , u ) = t , when f is arbitrary and g ( x , u ) + or g ( x , u ) when | u | . The proof uses upper and lower solutions and the Leray–Schauder degree.

Positive periodic solutions of a neutral functional differential equation with multiple delays

Yongxiang Li, Ailan Liu (2018)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

This paper deals with the existence of positive ω -periodic solutions for the neutral functional differential equation with multiple delays ( u ( t ) - c u ( t - δ ) ) ' + a ( t ) u ( t ) = f ( t , u ( t - τ 1 ) , , u ( t - τ n ) ) . The essential inequality conditions on the existence of positive periodic solutions are obtained. These inequality conditions concern with the relations of c and the coefficient function a ( t ) , and the nonlinearity f ( t , x 1 , , x n ) . Our discussion is based on the perturbation method of positive operator and fixed point index theory in cones.

Some remarks providing discontinuous maps on some C p ( X ) spaces

S. Moll (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let X be a completely regular Hausdorff topological space and C p ( X ) the space of continuous real-valued maps on X endowed with the pointwise topology. A simple and natural argument is presented to show how to construct on the space C p ( X ) , if X contains a homeomorphic copy of the closed interval [0,1], real-valued maps which are everywhere discontinuous but continuous on all compact subsets of C p ( X ) .

Existence and global attractivity of periodic solutions in a higher order difference equation

Chuanxi Qian, Justin Smith (2018)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

Consider the following higher order difference equation x ( n + 1 ) = f ( n , x ( n ) ) + g ( n , x ( n - k ) ) , n = 0 , 1 , where f ( n , x ) and g ( n , x ) : { 0 , 1 , } × [ 0 , ) [ 0 , ) are continuous functions in x and periodic functions in n with period p , and k is a nonnegative integer. We show the existence of a periodic solution { x ˜ ( n ) } under certain conditions, and then establish a sufficient condition for { x ˜ ( n ) } to be a global attractor of all nonnegative solutions of the equation. Applications to Riccati difference equation and some other difference equations derived from mathematical biology are also...

Remotely c -almost periodic type functions in n

Marco Kostić, Vipin Kumar (2022)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In this paper, we relate the notions of remote almost periodicity and quasi-asymptotical almost periodicity; in actual fact, we observe that a remotely almost periodic function is nothing else but a bounded, uniformly continuous quasi-asymptotically almost periodic function. We introduce and analyze several new classes of remotely c -almost periodic functions in n , slowly oscillating functions in n , and further analyze the recently introduced class of quasi-asymptotically c -almost periodic...
