Some lemmas about dynamical systems.
We discuss the existence of closed geodesic on a Riemannian manifold and the existence of periodic solution of second order Hamiltonian systems.
We are interested in deformations of Baker domains by a pinching process in curves. In this paper we deform the Fatou function , depending on the curves selected, to any map of the form , p/q a rational number. This process deforms a function with a doubly parabolic Baker domain into a function with an infinite number of doubly parabolic periodic Baker domains if p = 0, otherwise to a function with wandering domains. Finally, we show that certain attracting domains can be deformed by a pinching...
The Lyapunov exponent is a statistic that measures the sensitive dependence of the dynamic behaviour of a system on its initial conditions. Estimates of Lyapunov exponents are often used to characterize the qualitative population dynamics of insect time series. The methodology for estimation of the exponent for an observed, noisy, short ecological time series is still under development. Some progress has been made recently in providing measures of error for these exponents. Studies that do not account...
The theta series is a classical example of a modular form. In this article we argue that the trace , where is a self-adjoint elliptic pseudo-differential operator of order 1 with periodic bicharacteristic flow, may be viewed as a natural generalization. In particular, we establish approximate functional relations under the action of the modular group. This allows a detailed analysis of the asymptotics of near the real axis, and the proof of logarithm laws and limit theorems for its value...
In this paper we dramatically expand the domain of known stably ergodic, partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. For example, all partially hyperbolic affine diffeomorphisms of compact homogeneous spaces which have the accessibility property are stably ergodic. Our main tools are the new concepts – julienne density point and julienne quasi-conformality of the stable and unstable holonomy maps. Julienne quasi-conformal holonomy maps preserve all julienne density points.
