Given any natural number $k$ and any dense point sequence $(t_n)$ on the torus $\mathbb T$, we prove that the corresponding periodic orthonormal spline system of order $k$ is an unconditional basis in $L^p$ for $1<p<\infty$.

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a number field. An important geometric-dynamical invariant of f is its (first) dynamical degree d_f= lim SpecRadius((f^n)^*)^{1/n}. For algebraic points P of X…

We revisit the equilibrium one-dimensional $\phi^4$ model from the dynamical systems point of view. We find an infinite number of periodic orbits which are computationally stable. At the same time some of the orbits are found to exhibit…

The orbits about Lagrangian equilibrium points are important for scientific investigations. Since, a number of space missions have been completed and some are being proposed by various space agencies. In light of this, we consider a more…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number and $K$ a number field having a primitive $p$-th root of unity $\zeta.$ We prove that Nikshych's non-group theoretical Hopf algebra $H_p$, which is defined over $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta)$, admits a Hopf order over…

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group in which every element is of finite order, and let P(G) denote the class of all regular probability measures on G. In this note, it is observed that a characterization of algebraically regular…

A map $f{:}\,[0,1)\to [0,1)$ is a {\it piecewise contraction of $n$ intervals} ($n$-PC) if there exist $0<\lambda<1$ and a partition of $[0,1)$ into intervals $I_1,\ldots,I_n$ such that $f\vert_{I_i}$ is $\lambda$-Lipschitz for every $1\le…

Let $K$ be a number field, let $\phi \in K(t)$ be a rational map of degree at least 2, and let $\alpha, \beta \in K$. We show that if $\alpha$ is not in the forward orbit of $\beta$, then there is a positive proportion of primes ${\mathfrak…

In [FJJK] the Sharkovski\u{i} Theorem was extended to periodic orbits of strips of quasiperiodic skew products in the cylinder. In this paper we deal with the following natural question that arises in this setting: Does Sharkovski\u{i}…

In this paper we propose some continuation theorems for the periodic problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \, x_{i}' = g_{i}(t,x_{i+1}), &i=1,\ldots,n-1, \\ \, x_{n}' = h(t,x_{1},\ldots,x_{n}), \\ \, x_{i}(0)=x_{i}(T), &i=1,\ldots,n,…

Floquet's Theorem is a celebrated result in the theory of ordinary differential equations. Essentially, the theorem states that, when studying a linear differential system with $T$-periodic coefficients, we can apply a, possibly complex,…

Let K be a number field, let f: P_1 --> P_1 be a nonconstant rational map of degree greater than 1, let S be a finite set of places of K, and suppose that u, w in P_1(K) are not preperiodic under f. We prove that the set of (m,n) in N^2…

A poset $\bfp$ is well-partially ordered (WPO) if all its linear extensions are well orders~; the supremum of ordered types of these linear extensions is the {\em length}, $\ell(\bfp)$ of $\bfp$. We prove that if the vertex set $X$ of…

A well known theorem of Lagrange states that the simple continued fraction of a real number $\alpha$ is periodic if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational. We examine non-periodic and non-simple continued fractions formed by two…

For a morphism $f:\P^N \to \P^N$, the points whose forward orbit by $f$ is finite are called preperiodic points for $f$. This article presents an algorithm to effectively determine all the rational preperiodic points for $f$ defined over a…

A study of the set N_p of positive integers which occur as orders of nonsingular derivations of finite-dimensional non-nilpotent Lie algebras of characteristic p>0 was initiated by Shalev and continued by the present author. The main goal…

Let $K$ be a function field over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$, let $\varphi\in K(z)$ be a rational function of degree at least equal to $2$ for which there is no point at which $\varphi$ is totally ramified, and…

Fix an odd prime $p$. If $r$ is a positive integer and $f$ a polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, let $P_{p,r}(f)$ be the proportion of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_{p^r})$ that is periodic with respect to $f$. We show that as…

By varying a parameter of a one-dimensional piecewise smooth map, stable periodic orbits are observed. In this paper, complete analytic characterization of these stable periodic orbits is obtained. An interesting relationship between the…

This study analyzes the Collatz map through nonlinear dynamics. By embedding integers in Sharkovsky's ordering, we show that odd initial values suffice for full dynamical characterization. We introduce ``direction phases'' to partition…
