Identifying points of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism

Gavin Band (2003)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We investigate the question, due to S. Smale, of whether a hyperbolic automorphism T of the n-dimensional torus can have a compact invariant subset homeomorphic to a compact manifold of positive dimension, other than a finite union of subtori. In the simplest case such a manifold would be a closed surface. A result of Fathi says that T can sometimes have an invariant subset which is a finite-to-one image of a closed surface under a continuous map which is locally injective except possibly at a finite...

Imbalances in Arnoux-Rauzy sequences

Julien Cassaigne, Sébastien Ferenczi, Luca Q. Zamboni (2000)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

In a 1982 paper Rauzy showed that the subshift ( X , T ) generated by the morphism 1 ↦ 12 , 2 ↦ 13 and 3 ↦ 1 is a natural coding of a rotation on the two-dimensional torus 𝕋 2 , i.e., is measure-theoretically conjugate to an exchange of three fractal domains on a compact set in ℝ 2 , each domain being translated by the same vector modulo a lattice. It was believed more generally that each sequence of block complexity 2 n + 1 satisfying a combinatorial criterion known as the ☆ condition of Arnoux and Rauzy codes the orbit of a point...

Index filtrations and Morse decompositions for discrete dynamical systems

P. Bartłomiejczyk, Z. Dzedzej (1999)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

On a Morse decomposition of an isolated invariant set of a homeomorphism (discrete dynamical system) there are partial orderings defined by the homeomorphism. These are called admissible orderings of the Morse decomposition. We prove the existence of index filtrations for admissible total orderings of a Morse decomposition and introduce the connection matrix in this case.

Induced subsystems associated to a Cantor minimal system

Heidi Dahl, Mats Molberg (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let (X,T) be a Cantor minimal system and let (R,) be the associated étale equivalence relation (the orbit equivalence relation). We show that for an arbitrary Cantor minimal system (Y,S) there exists a closed subset Z of X such that (Y,S) is conjugate to the subsystem (Z,T̃), where T̃ is the induced map on Z from T. We explore when we may choose Z to be a T-regular and/or a T-thin set, and we relate T-regularity of a set to R-étaleness. The latter concept plays an important role in the study of...

Infinite Iterated Function Systems: A Multivalued Approach

K. Leśniak (2004)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We prove that a compact family of bounded condensing multifunctions has bounded condensing set-theoretic union. Compactness is understood in the sense of the Chebyshev uniform semimetric induced by the Hausdorff distance and condensity is taken w.r.t. the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness. As a tool, we present an estimate for the measure of an infinite union. Then we apply our result to infinite iterated function systems.

Infinite periodic points of endomorphisms over special confluent rewriting systems

Julien Cassaigne, Pedro V. Silva (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We consider endomorphisms of a monoid defined by a special confluent rewriting system that admit a continuous extension to the completion given by reduced infinite words, and study from a dynamical viewpoint the nature of their infinite periodic points. For prefix-convergent endomorphisms and expanding endomorphisms, we determine the structure of the set of all infinite periodic points in terms of adherence values, bound the periods and show that all regular periodic points are attractors.

Inhomogeneities in non-hyperbolic one-dimensional invariant sets

Brian E. Raines (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

The topology of one-dimensional invariant sets (attractors) is of great interest. R. F. Williams [20] demonstrated that hyperbolic one-dimensional non-wandering sets can be represented as inverse limits of graphs with bonding maps that satisfy certain strong dynamical properties. These spaces have "homogeneous neighborhoods" in the sense that small open sets are homeomorphic to the product of a Cantor set and an arc. In this paper we examine inverse limits of graphs with more complicated bonding...

Intensified Doxorubicin-Based Regimen Efficacy in Residual Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Disease: Towards a Computationally Supported Treatment Improvement

Y. Kogan, B. Ribba, K. Marron, N. Dahan, V. Vainstein, Z. Agur (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Despite recent advances, treatment of patients with aggressive Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL2) has yet to be optimally designed. Notwithstanding the contribution of molecular treatments, intensification of chemotherapeutic regimens may still be beneficial. Hoping to aid in the design of intensified chemotherapy, we put forward a mathematical and computational model that analyses the effect of Doxorubicin on NHL over a wide range of patho-physiological conditions. The model represents tumour growth...

Invariant curves from symmetry

Michal Fečkan (1993)

Mathematica Bohemica

We show that certain symmetries of maps imply the existence of their invariant curves.

Invariant scrambled sets and maximal distributional chaos

Xinxing Wu, Peiyong Zhu (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

For the full shift (Σ₂,σ) on two symbols, we construct an invariant distributionally ϵ-scrambled set for all 0 < ϵ < diam Σ₂ in which each point is transitive, but not weakly almost periodic.

Invariant sets and connecting orbits for nonlinear evolution equations at resonance

Piotr Kokocki (2015)

Mathematica Bohemica

We study the problem of existence of orbits connecting stationary points for the nonlinear heat and strongly damped wave equations being at resonance at infinity. The main difficulty lies in the fact that the problems may have no solutions for general nonlinearity. To address this question we introduce geometrical assumptions for the nonlinear term and use them to prove index formulas expressing the Conley index of associated semiflows. We also prove that the geometrical assumptions are generalizations...

Inverse limit spaces of post-critically finite tent maps

Henk Bruin (2000)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let (I,T) be the inverse limit space of a post-critically finite tent map. Conditions are given under which these inverse limit spaces are pairwise nonhomeomorphic. This extends results of Barge & Diamond [2].

Inverse Limits, Economics, and Backward Dynamics.

Judy Kennedy (2008)

RACSAM

We survey recent papers on the problem of backward dynamics in economics, providing along the way a glimpse at the economics perspective, a discussion of the economic models and mathematical tools involved, and a list of applicable literature in both mathematics and economics.

Inverse limits of tentlike maps on trees

Stewart Baldwin (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We investigate generalizations of Ingram's Conjecture involving maps on trees. We show that for a class of tentlike maps on the k-star with periodic critical orbit, different maps in the class have distinct inverse limit spaces. We do this by showing that such maps satisfy the conclusion of the Pseudo-isotopy Conjecture, i.e., if h is a homeomorphism of the inverse limit space, then there is an integer N such that h and σ̂^N switch composants in the same way, where σ̂ is the standard shift map of...

Inverse limits on intervals using unimodal bonding maps having only periodic points whose periods are all the powers of two

W. Ingram, Robert Roe (1999)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We derive several properties of unimodal maps having only periodic points whose period is a power of 2. We then consider inverse limits on intervals using a single strongly unimodal bonding map having periodic points whose only periods are all the powers of 2. One such mapping is the logistic map, f λ ( x ) = 4λx(1-x) on [f(λ),λ], at the Feigenbaum limit, λ ≈ 0.89249. It is known that this map produces an hereditarily decomposable inverse limit with only three topologically different subcontinua. Other...
