Inverse problems of symbolic dynamics

Alexei Ya. Belov, Grigorii V. Kondakov, Ivan V. Mitrofanov (2011)

Banach Center Publications

This paper reviews some results regarding symbolic dynamics, correspondence between languages of dynamical systems and combinatorics. Sturmian sequences provide a pattern for investigation of one-dimensional systems, in particular interval exchange transformation. Rauzy graphs language can express many important combinatorial and some dynamical properties. In this case combinatorial properties are considered as being generated by a substitutional system, and dynamical properties are considered...

Minor cycles for interval maps

Michał Misiurewicz (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For continuous maps of an interval into itself we consider cycles (periodic orbits) that are non-reducible in the sense that there is no non-trivial partition into blocks of consecutive points permuted by the map. Among them we identify the miror ones. They are those whose existence does not imply existence of other non-reducible cycles of the same period. Moreover, we find minor patterns of a given period with minimal entropy.

Nombre de rotation, structures géométriques sur un cercle et groupe de Bott-Virasoro

Laurent Guieu (1996)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Une classification complète des stabilisateurs coadjoints du groupe de Bott-Virasoro est obtenue par une méthode essentiellement géométrique. L’outil de base est le nombre de rotation d’un difféomorphisme du cercle. En particulier, nous mettons en évidence la présence de groupes d’isotropie non-connexes et montrons que la transformation de Miura des opérateurs de Hill peut s’interpréter comme une application moment sur l’espace des structures affines du cercle.

Noninvertible minimal maps

Sergiĭ Kolyada, L'ubomír Snoha, Sergeĭ Trofimchuk (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

For a discrete dynamical system given by a compact Hausdorff space X and a continuous selfmap f of X the connection between minimality, invertibility and openness of f is investigated. It is shown that any minimal map is feebly open, i.e., sends open sets to sets with nonempty interiors (and if it is open then it is a homeomorphism). Further, it is shown that if f is minimal and A ⊆ X then both f(A) and f - 1 ( A ) share with A those topological properties which describe how large a set is. Using these results...

On a one-dimensional analogue of the Smale horseshoe

Ryszard Rudnicki (1991)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We construct a transformation T:[0,1] → [0,1] having the following properties: 1) (T,|·|) is completely mixing, where |·| is Lebesgue measure, 2) for every f∈ L¹ with ∫fdx = 1 and φ ∈ C[0,1] we have φ ( T n x ) f ( x ) d x φ d μ , where μ is the cylinder measure on the standard Cantor set, 3) if φ ∈ C[0,1] then n - 1 i = 0 n - 1 φ ( T i x ) φ d μ for Lebesgue-a.e. x.

On fixed points of holomorphic type

Ewa Ligocka (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study a linearization of a real-analytic plane map in the neighborhood of its fixed point of holomorphic type. We prove a generalization of the classical Koenig theorem. To do that, we use the well known results concerning the local dynamics of holomorphic mappings in ℂ².

On tame embeddings of solenoids into 3-space

Boju Jiang, Shicheng Wang, Hao Zheng, Qing Zhou (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Solenoids are inverse limits of the circle, and the classical knot theory is the theory of tame embeddings of the circle into 3-space. We make a general study, including certain classification results, of tame embeddings of solenoids into 3-space, seen as the "inverse limits" of tame embeddings of the circle. Some applications in topology and in dynamics are discussed. In particular, there are tamely embedded solenoids Σ ⊂ ℝ³ which are strictly achiral. Since solenoids are non-planar,...

On the ∗-product in kneading theory

Karen Brucks, R. Galeeva, P. Mumbrú, D. Rockmore, Charles Tresser (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We discuss a generalization of the *-product in kneading theory to maps with an arbitrary finite number of turning points. This is based on an investigation of the factorization of permutations into products of permutations with some special properties relevant for dynamics on the unit interval.
