Absolutely continuous measures for certain maps of an interval
Les algèbres différentielles sont apparues comme des outils commodes ou même inévitables pour exprimer les symétries continues, exactes ou brisées, suivant la situation physique envisagée, dans le cadre de l’algorithme de Feynman de la théorie quantique des champs perturbative. Les algèbres de courants, les théories de Yang-Mills, la première quantification de la corde, sont proposées comme exemples classiques.
We study a definition of entropy for -actions (or -actions) due to S. Friedland. Unlike the more traditional definition, this is better suited for actions whose generators have finite entropy as single transformations. We compute its value in several examples. In particular, we settle a conjecture of Friedland [2].
It is proved that a piecewise monotone transformation of the unit interval (with a countable number of pieces) is generically chaotic. The Gauss map arising in connection with the continued fraction expansions of the reals is an example of such a transformation.
We prove a version of the Khinchin-Groshev theorem in Diophantine approximation for quadratic extensions of function fields in positive characteristic.
We consider a chaotic system with a double-scroll attractor proposed by Elwakil, composing with a second-order system, which has low-dimensional multiple invariant subspaces and multi-level on-off intermittency. This type of composite system always includes a skew-product structure and some invariant subspaces, which are associated with different levels of laminar phase. In order for the level of laminar phase be adjustable, we adopt a nonlinear function with saturation characteristic to tune the...
We study spectral properties of transfer operators for diffeomorphisms on a Riemannian manifold . Suppose that is an isolated hyperbolic subset for , with a compact isolating neighborhood . We first introduce Banach spaces of distributions supported on , which are anisotropic versions of the usual space of functions and of the generalized Sobolev spaces , respectively. We then show that the transfer operators associated to and a smooth weight extend boundedly to these spaces, and...
We simplify and generalize McDuff’s construction of symplectic 4-manifolds with disconnected boundary of contact type in terms of the linking pairing defined on the dual of 3-dimensional Lie algebras. This leads us to an observation that an Anosov flow gives rise to a bi-contact structure, i.e. a transverse pair of contact structures with different orientations, and the construction turns out to work for 3-manifolds which admit Anosov flows with smooth invariant volume. Finally, new examples of...
We consider a large class of non compact hyperbolic manifolds with cusps and we prove that the winding process generated by a closed -form supported on a neighborhood of a cusp , satisfies a limit theorem, with an asymptotic stable law and a renormalising factor depending only on the rank of the cusp and the Poincaré exponent of . No assumption on the value of is required and this theorem generalises previous results due to Y. Guivarc’h, Y. Le Jan, J. Franchi and N. Enriquez.
