Establishing the existence of periodic orbits is one of the crucial and most intricate topics in the study of dynamical systems, and over the years, many methods have been developed to this end. On the other hand, finding closed orbits in…

The existence and construction of periodic approximations with convergent spectra is crucial in solid state physics for the spectral study of corresponding Schr\"odinger operators. In a forthcoming work [9] (arXiv:1709.00975) this task was…

We propose a definition of graph subshifts of finite type that can be seen as extending both the notions of subshifts of finite type from classical symbolic dynamics and finitely presented groups from combinatorial group theory. These are…

We consider a class of simple quasi one-dimensional classically non-integrable systems which capture the essence of the periodic orbit structure of general hyperbolic nonintegrable dynamical systems. Their behavior is simple enough to allow…

Let $K\subset S^3$ be a knot, $X:= S^3\setminus K$ its complement, and $\mathbb{T}$ the circle group identified with $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$. To any oriented long knot diagram of $K$, we associate a quadratic polynomial in variables…

A group theoretical description of basic discrete symmetries (space inversion P, time reversal T and charge conjugation C) is given. Discrete subgroups of orthogonal groups of multidimensional spaces over the fields of real and complex…

The orbit problem is at the heart of symmetry reduction methods for model checking concurrent systems. It asks whether two given configurations in a concurrent system (represented as finite strings over some finite alphabet) are in the same…

We will show that if a dynamical system has enough constants of motion then a Moser-Weinstein type theorem can be applied for proving the existence of periodic orbits in the case when the linearized system is degenerate.

Graph maps that are homotopic to the identity and that permute the vertices are studied. Given a periodic point for such a map, a {\em rotation element} is defined in terms of the fundamental group. A number of results are proved about the…

A somewhat pretentious presentation of number systems (N, Z, Q, R, C, Q_p, >...). The problem of a p-adic characterisation of good-reduction p-adic curves is posed.

A periodic graph in dimension $d$ is a directed graph with a free action of $\Z^d$ with only finitely many orbits. It can conveniently be represented in terms of an associated finite graph with weights in $\Z^d$, corresponding to a…

In this paper we introduce compressed commuting graph of rings. It can be seen as a compression of the standard commuting graph (with the central elements added) where we identify the vertices that generate the same subring. The compression…

Motivated by a uniform boundedness conjecture of Morton and Silverman, we study the graphs of pre-periodic points for maps in three families of dynamical systems, namely the collections of rational functions of degree two having a periodic…

Let $\phi:\Z/p\to GL_{n}(\Z)$ denote an integral representation of the cyclic group of prime order $p$. This induces a $\Z/p$-action on the torus $X=\R^{n}/\Z^{n}$. The goal of this paper is to explicitly compute the cohomology groups…

We introduce the notion of a contractible subshift. This is a strengthening of the notion of strong irreducibility, where we require that the gluings are given by a block map. We show that a subshift is a retract of a full shift if and only…

We suggest a geometrical framework to discuss periodic layered structures in the unit disk. The band gaps appear when the point representing the system approaches the unit circle. We show that the trace of the matrix describing the basic…

We consider Riordan arrays $\bigl(1/(1-t^{d+1}), ~ tp(t)\bigr)$. These are infinite lower triangular matrices determined by the formal power series $1/(1-t^{d+1})$ and a polynomial $p(t)$ of degree $d$. Columns of such matrix are eventually…

Let $G$ be a group. The prime index graph of $G$, denoted by $\Pi(G)$, is the graph whose vertex set is the set of all subgroups of $G$ and two distinct comparable vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if the index of $H$ in $K$ or…

Let $G$ be a finite, non-abelian group of the form $G = A N$, where $A \leq G$ is abelian, and $N \trianglelefteq G$ is cyclic. We prove that the commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is either a connected graph of diameter at most four, or…

In this paper decomposition of periodic orbits in bifurcation diagrams are derived in unidimensional dynamics system $x_{n+1}=f(x_{n};r)$, being $f$ an unimodal function. We proof a theorem which states the necessary and sufficient…
