Monotonicity with respect to all arguments is fundamental to the definition of aggregation functions. It is also a limiting property that results in many important non-monotonic averaging functions being excluded from the theoretical…
In this paper we investigate the monotonicity properties related to the ratio of gamma functions, from which some related asymptotics and inequalities are established. Some special cases also confirm the conjectures of C.-P. Chen…
We consider the family of singular potentials $\psi_c = 2 \log(|\sin(\pi(x-c))|)$, $c\in \mathbb{T}$ over the doubling map and we examine the dependence of several thermodynamic and multifractal characteristics on the position of the…
This paper defines the pressure for asymptotically subadditive potentials under a mistake function, including the measuretheoretical and the topological versions. Using the advanced techniques of ergodic theory and topological dynamics, we…
In this paper, we investigate the monotonicity of the functions $t \mapsto \frac{\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_k w_k(t)}{\sum_{k=0}^\infty b_k w_k(t)}$ and $x \mapsto \frac{\int_\alpha^\beta f(t) w(t,x) \textrm{d} t}{\int_\alpha^\beta g(t) w(t,x)…
A Boolean $k$-monotone function defined over a finite poset domain ${\cal D}$ alternates between the values $0$ and $1$ at most $k$ times on any ascending chain in ${\cal D}$. Therefore, $k$-monotone functions are natural generalizations of…
Top monotonicity is a relaxation of various well-known domain restrictions such as single-peaked and single-crossing for which negative impossibility results are circumvented and for which the median-voter theorem still holds. We examine…
In this note, we study monotone dynamical systems with respect to polyhedral cones. Using the half-space representation and the vertex representation, we propose three equivalent conditions to certify monotonicity of a dynamical system with…
Recently, the authors studied the connection between each maximal monotone operator T and a family H(T) of convex functions. Each member of this family characterizes the operator and satisfies two particular inequalities. The aim of this…
The classical dynamics of a particle that is driven by a rapidly oscillating potential (with frequency $\omega$) is studied. The motion is separated into a slow part and a fast part that oscillates around the slow part. The motion of the…
In this article, we study the asymptotics of harmonic functions. A typical method is by proving monotonicity formulas of a version of rescaled Dirichlet energy, and use it to study the renormalized solution -- the Almgren's blowup. However,…
In a central force system the apsidal angle is the angle at the centre of force between two consecutive apsis and measures the precession rate of the line of apsis. The apsidal angle has applications in different fields and the Newton's…
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,…
We study the isochronicity of centers at $O\in \mathbb{R}^2$ for systems $\dot x=-y+A(x,y), \dot y=x+B(x,y)$, where $A, B\in \mathbb{R}[x,y]$, which can be reduced to the Lienard type equation. Using the so-called C-algorithm we have found…
This paper provides refined versions of some known functional central limit theorems for conditional Poisson sampling which are more suitable for applications. The theorems presented in this paper are generalizations of some results that…
In this paper, we demonstrate, first in literature known to us, that potential functions can be constructed in continuous dissipative chaotic systems and can be used to reveal their dynamical properties. To attain this aim, a Lorenz-like…
In this paper we derive new criterion for uniform stability assessment of the linear periodic time-varying systems $\dot x=A(t)x,$ $A(t+T)=A(t).$ As a corollary, the lower and upper bounds for the Floquet characteristic exponents are…
Time series in energy systems, such as solar irradiance, wind speed, or electrical load, are characterized by strong diurnal and seasonal periodicities. Accurate forecasting requires accounting for time varying statistical properties that…
We explore the possibility of obtaining unidirectional current in a symmetric (periodic) potential system without the application of any obvious (apparent) externally applied bias. There are many physical models proposed to accomplish this…
An imperative condition for the functioning of a power-grid network is that its power generators remain synchronized. Disturbances can prompt desynchronization, which is a process that has been involved in large power outages. Here we…
