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...
Let α be an irrational and φ: ℕ → ℝ⁺ be a function decreasing to zero. Let
We investigate the existence and ergodic properties of absolutely continuous invariant measures for a class of piecewise monotone and convex self-maps of the unit interval. Our assumption entails a type of average convexity which strictly generalizes the case of individual branches being convex, as investigated by Lasota and Yorke (1982). Along with existence, we identify tractable conditions for the invariant measure to be unique and such that the system has exponential decay of correlations on...
We consider a family of transformations with a random parameter and study a random dynamical system in which one transformation is randomly selected from the family and applied on each iteration. The parameter space may be of cardinality continuum. Further, the selection of the transformation need not be independent of the position in the state space. We show the existence of absolutely continuous invariant measures for random maps on an interval under some conditions.
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].
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.
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, = 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...
This paper shows a simple construction of continuous involutions of real intervals in terms of continuous even functions. We also study smooth involutions defined by symmetric equations. Finally, we review some applications, in particular a characterization of isochronous potentials by means of smooth involutions.
