We show that a certain type of quasifinite, conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation always has a maximal zero entropy factor, generated by predictable sets. We also construct a conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation which is not quasifinite; and consider distribution asymptotics of information showing that e.g. for Boole's transformation, information is asymptotically mod-normal with normalization ∝ √n. Lastly, we show that certain ergodic, probability preserving...
The preperiodic dynatomic curve is the closure in ℂ² of the set of (c,z) such that z is a preperiodic point of the polynomial with preperiod n and period p (n,p ≥ 1). We prove that each has exactly d-1 irreducible components, which are all smooth and have pairwise transverse intersections at the singular points of . We also compute the genus of each component and the Galois group of the defining polynomial of .
We deal with a subshift of finite type and an equilibrium state μ for a Hölder continuous function. Let αⁿ be the partition into cylinders of length n. We compute (in particular we show the existence of the limit) , where is the element of the partition containing and τₙ(x) is the return time of the trajectory of x to the cylinder αⁿ(x).
Early studies of the novel swine-origin 2009 influenza A (H1N1) epidemic indicate clinical attack rates in children much higher than in adults. Non-medical interventions such as school closings are constrained by their large socio-economic costs. Here we develop a mathematical model to ascertain the roles of pre-symptomatic influenza transmission as well as symptoms surveillance of children to assess the utility of school closures. Our model analysis...
This note brings a complement to the study of genericity of functions which are nowhere analytic mainly in a measure-theoretic sense. We extend this study to Gevrey classes of functions.
Let us consider the simplest model of one-dimensional probabilistic cellular automata (PCA). The cells are indexed by the integers, the alphabet is , and all the cells evolve synchronously. The new content of a cell is randomly chosen, independently of the others, according to a distribution depending only on the content of the cell itself and of its right neighbor. There are necessary and sufficient conditions on the four parameters of such a PCA to have a Bernoulli product invariant measure....
The purpose of this article is to introduce for dispersive partial differential equations with random initial data, the notion of well-posedness (in the Hadamard-probabilistic sense). We restrict the study to one of the simplest examples of such equations: the periodic cubic semi-linear wave equation. Our contributions in this work are twofold: first we break the algebraic rigidity involved in our previous works and allow much more general randomizations (general infinite product measures v.s.
