We argue that simple dynamical systems are factors of finite automata, regarded as dynamical systems on discontinuum. We show that any homeomorphism of the real interval is of this class. An orientation preserving homeomorphism of the…
We study a two-parameter family of one-dimensional maps and related (a,b)-continued fractions suggested for consideration by Don Zagier. We prove that the associated natural extension maps have attractors with finite rectangular structure…
We consider a specific %piecewise rotation of the plane that is continuous on two half-planes, class of piecewise rotations of the plane that are continuous on two half-planes, as studied in \cite{Bosh.Goet.03}, \cite{Goet.Quas.09} and…
We give a hierarchy of many-parameter families of maps of the interval [0,1] with an invariant measure and using the measure, we calculate Kolmogorov--Sinai entropy of these maps analytically. In contrary to the usual one-dimensional maps…
A set $A$ in a finite dimensional Euclidean space is \emph{monovex} if for every two points $x,y \in A$ there is a continuous path within the set that connects $x$ and $y$ and is monotone (nonincreasing or nondecreasing) in each coordinate.…
For each $n > 0$ there is a one complex parameter family of homeomorphisms of the circle consisting of linear fractional transformations `conjugated by $z \to z^n$'. We show that these families are free of relations, which determines the…
Semitoric systems are a type of four-dimensional integrable system for which one of the integrals generates a global $S^1$-action; these systems were classified by Pelayo and Vu Ngoc in terms of five symplectic invariants. We introduce and…
We consider the real dynamics of a two parameter family of plane birational maps, focusing especially on an open subset of parameter space on which the real and complex dynamics are in close agreement. On the complex side, we find a…
It is well known that topological classification of dynamical systems with hyperbolic dynamics is significantly defined by dynamics on nonwandering set. F. Przytycki generalized axiom $A$ for smooth endomorphisms that was previously…
Iterations of odd piecewise continuous maps with two discontinuities, i.e., symmetric discontinuous bimodal maps, are studied. Symbolic dynamics is introduced. The tools of kneading theory are used to study the homology of the discrete…
It is well-known and easy to show that even the following version of the directed travelling salesman problem is NP-complete: Given a strongly connected complete digraph $D=(V,A)$, a cost function $w: A\rightarrow \{0,1\}$ and a natural…
A one-dimensional confined Nonlinear Random Walk is a tuple of $N$ diffeomorphisms of the unit interval driven by a probabilistic Markov chain. For generic such walks, we obtain a geometric characterization of their ergodic stationary…
We recently introduced the notion of an idempotent system. This linear algebraic object is motivated by the structure of an association scheme. There is a type of idempotent system, said to be symmetric. In the present paper we classify up…
Let $E_{\la}(z)=\la {\rm exp}(z), \ \lambda\in \mathbb C$ be the complex exponential family. For all functions in the family there is a unique asymptotic value at 0 (and no critical values). For a fixed $\la$, the set of points in $\mathbb…
We give hierarchy of one-parameter family F(a,x) of maps of the interval [0,1] with an invariant measure. Using the measure, we calculate Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy, or equivalently Lyapunov characteristic exponent, of these maps…
We discuss how the presence of a suitable symmetry can guarantee the perturbative linearizability of a dynamical system - or a parameter dependent family - via the Poincar\'e Normal Form approach. We discuss this at first formally, and…
We introduce a family of piecewise isometries $f_s$ parametrized by $s \in [0,1)$ on the surface of a regular tetrahedron, which we call the tetrahedral twists. This family of maps is similar to the PETs constructed by Patrick Hooper. We…
Tables of the currently known parameters of symmetric configurations are given. Formulas for parameters of the known infinite families of symmetric configurations are presented as well. The results of the recent paper [18] are used. This…
We classify those rational maps $f: \mathbb{P}^1 \to \mathbb{P}^1$ for which there exists a contravariant tensor $q$ which is parallel, i.e. such that $f^*q // q$, by proving that such maps preserve a parabolic orbifold.
A (closed) dynamical system is a notion of how things can be, together with a notion of how they may change given how they are. The idea and mathematics of closed dynamical systems has proven incredibly useful in those sciences that can…
