A rotational subset, relative to a continuous transformation $T: \mathbb{T} \to \mathbb{T}$ on the unit circle, is a closed, invariant subset of $\mathbb{T}$ that is minimal and on which $T$ respects the standard orientation of the unit…

Let xi be a non-null countable ordinal. We study the Borel subsets of the plane that can be made $\bormxi$ by refining the Polish topology on the real line. These sets are called potentially $\bormxi$. We give a Hurewicz-like test to…

We study normal forms for families of area-preserving maps which have a fixed point with neutral multipliers -1 or +1 at epsilon=0. Our study covers both the orientation-preserving and orientation-reversing cases. In these cases Birkhoff…

Explicit formulae are given for the saddle connection of an integrable family of standard maps studied by Y. Suris. When the map is perturbed this connection is destroyed, and we use a discrete version of Melnikov's method to give an…

We prove that if a circular arc has angle short enough, then it can be continuously moved to any prescribed position within a set of arbitrarily small area.

We prove the existence of recurrent initial configurations for the rotor walk on many graphs, including Z^d, and planar graphs with locally finite embeddings. We also prove that recurrence and transience of rotor walks are invariant under…

We prove that for continuous maps on the interval, the existence of an n-cycle, implies the existence of n-1 points which interwind the original ones and are permuted by the map. We then use this combinatorial result to show that piecewise…

Consider a given space, e.g., the Euclidean plane, and its decomposition into Voronoi regions induced by given sites. It seems intuitively clear that each point in the space belongs to at least one of the regions, i.e., no neutral region…

We address a linear control system under geometric constraints on control and study its reachable sets starting at zero time from the origin. The main result is the existence of a limit shape of the reachable sets as the terminal time tends…

Consider a Berkovich space over a good Banach ring and the relative projective line over it. (It is a space whose fibers are projective lines over different complete valued fields.) For each polarized endomorphism of this line, we prove…

In this paper we determine all the bijective linear maps on the space of bounded observables which preserve a fixed moment or the variance. Nonlinear versions of the corresponding results are also presented.

Let $X$ and $Y$ be the Hausdorff topological spaces and let $A$ be both an $\fs$- and $\gd$- subset of $X$. Let also $f\cn A\to Y$ be a function for which the inverse image of every open subset $U\subset Y$ is $\fs$ in $X$. We show that $f$…

We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…

A treatment is given of the orbit dynamics for linear unstable motion that allows for the zeros in the beta function and makes no assumptions about the realness of the betatron and phase functions. The phase shift per turn is shown to be…

We explore the separability of point sets in the plane by a restricted-orientation convex hull, which is an orientation-dependent, possibly disconnected, and non-convex enclosing shape that generalizes the convex hull. Let $R$ and $B$ be…

A method to establish regions of phase space through which pass no invariant tori transverse to a given direction field is applied to the planar circular restricted three-body problem. Implications for the location of stable orbits for…

We study a simple generalization of the rotation (or circular shift) of the binary sequences. In particular, we show each orbit of this generalized rotation has a certain statistical symmetry. This generalized rotation naturally arises when…

We study the configuration space of rectangulations and convex subdivisions of $n$ points in the plane. It is shown that a sequence of $O(n\log n)$ elementary flip and rotate operations can transform any rectangulation to any other…

In this paper, we describe the structure of shape derivatives around sets which are only assumed to be of finite perimeter in $\R^N$. This structure allows us to define a useful notion of positivity of the shape derivative and we show it…

Given a continuous linear cocycle A over a homeomorphism f of a compact metric space X, we investigate its set R of Lyapunov-Perron regular points, that is, the collection of trajectories of f that obey the conclusions of the Multiplicative…
