Finding linking sets.
We construct a map on the space of interval exchange transformations, which generalizes the classical map on the interval, related to continued fraction expansion. This map is based on Rauzy induction, but unlike its relative kown up to now, the map is ergodic with respect to some finite absolutely continuous measure on the space of interval exchange transformations. We present the prescription for calculation of this measure based on technique developed by W. Veech for Rauzy induction.We study...
In the paper, we deal with the equation of a rectangular thin plate with a simply supported boundary. The restoring force being an odd superlinear function of the vertical displacement, the existence of infinitely many nonzero time-periodic solutions is proved.
