Our aim is to point out the applicability of the Knaster-Tarski fixed point principle to the problem of existence of invariant sets in discrete-time (multivalued) semi-dynamical systems, especially iterated function systems.
For any m, 2 ≤ m < ∞, we construct an ergodic dynamical system having spectral multiplicity m and infinite rank. Given r > 1, 0 < b < 1 such that rb > 1 we construct a dynamical system (X, B, μ, T) with simple spectrum such that r(T) = r, F*(T) = b, and
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...
We construct in Bell-Kunen’s model: (a) a group maximal topology on a countable infinite Boolean group of weight and (b) a countable irresolvable dense subspace of . In this model .
We consider isometry groups of a fairly general class of non standard products of metric spaces. We present sufficient conditions under which the isometry group of a non standard product of metric spaces splits as a permutation group into direct or wreath product of isometry groups of some metric spaces.
The weak convergence of the iterative generated by , , to a coincidence point of the mappings is investigated, where is a real reflexive Banach space and its dual (assuming that is strictly convex). The basic assumptions are that is the duality mapping, is demiclosed at , coercive, potential and bounded and that there exists a non-negative real valued function such that
