The volume of phase space may grow super-exponentially ("explosively") with the number of degrees of freedom for certain types of complex systems such as those encountered in biology and neuroscience, where components interact and create…
Let $S^m = \{x_0^2 + x_1^2 + \cdots + x_m^2 = 1\}$ and $P = \{x_0 = x_1 = 0\} \cap S^m$. Suppose that $f$ is a self--map of $S^m$ such that $f^{-1}(P) = P$ and $|\mathrm{deg}(f_{|P})| < |\mathrm{deg}(f)|$. Then, the number of fixed points…

In this paper we study a quintessence scalar field in a potential exponentially decreasing with e-folding number, and show that the universe is currently undergoing an accelerated expansion and could probably remain accelerating…
Given an ergodic measure with positive entropy and only positive Lyapunov exponents, its dynamical quantifiers can be approximated by means of quantifiers of some family of uniformly expanding repellers. Here non-uniformly expanding maps…
A polynomial is expansive if all of its roots lie outside the unit circle. We define some special determinants involving the coefficients of a real polynomial and formulate necessary and sufficient conditions for expansivity using these…
In [B] Bowen defined the growth rate of an endomorphism of a finitely generated group and related it to the entropy of a map $f:M \mapsto M$ on a compact manifold. In this note we study the purely group theoretic aspects of the growth rate…
We study the contact process on the configuration model with a power law degree distribution, when the exponent is smaller than or equal to two. We prove that the extinction time grows exponentially fast with the size of the graph and prove…
A result on the structure of expansive matrices in an indefinite inner product space is derived, which exhibits the largest unitary compression of the matrix.
Entropy is one of physical bases for fractal dimension definition, and the generalized fractal dimension was defined by Renyi entropy. Using fractal dimension, we can describe urban growth and form and characterize spatial complexity. A…
Recently, Buzzi showed in the compact case that the entropy map $f\rightarrow$ $h_{top}(f)$ is lower semi-continuous for all piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. We prove that topological entropy for the Lozi maps can jump from zero to…
A continuous map $f$ from a compact interval $I$ into itself is densely (resp. generically) chaotic if the set of points $(x,y)$ such that $\limsup_{n\to+\infty}|f^n(x)-f^n(y)|>0$ and $\liminf_{n\to+\infty} |f^n(x)-f^n(y)|=0$ is dense…
In this note we show that if a continuous-time, nonlinear, time-invariant, finite-dimensional system evolves on a compact subset of Rn and if the Jacobian of the vector field is Hurwitz at each point of the compact set, then there is a…
We improve both dimension compression and expansion bounds for homeomorphisms with $p$-exponentially integrable distortion. To the first direction we also introduce estimates for the compression multifractal spectra, which will be used to…
We study the evolution of the configuration entropy for different combinations of $\Omega_{m0}$ and $\Omega_{\Lambda0}$ in the flat $\Lambda$CDM universe and find that the cosmological constant plays a decisive role in controlling the…
This note discusses some aspects of the asymptotic behaviour of nonexpansive maps. Using metric functionals, we make a connection to the invariant subspace problem and prove a new result for nonexpansive maps of $\ell^{1}$. We also point…
For any real number $x \in [0,1)$, we denote by $q_n(x)$ the denominator of the $n$-th convergent of the continued fraction expansion of $x$ $(n \in \mathbb{N})$. It is well-known that the Lebesgue measure of the set of points $x \in [0,1)$…
We can approximate a continuous self-map $f$ of a compact metric space by discretizing the space into a grid. Through either the map itself or a time series, $f$ induces a multivalued grid map $\mathcal F$. The dynamical properties of…
