Since the Hadamard Theorem, several metric and topological conditions have emerged in the literature to date, yielding global inversion and implicit theorems for functions in different settings. Relevant examples are the mappings between…

We study the stable behaviour of discrete dynamical systems where the map is convex and monotone with respect to the standard positive cone. The notion of tangential stability for fixed points and periodic points is introduced, which is…

Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…

This paper considers continuously differentiable functions of two vector variables that have (possibly a continuum of) min-max saddle points. We study the asymptotic convergence properties of the associated saddle-point dynamics…

We introduce a new method for determining the global stability of synchronization in systems of coupled identical maps. The method is based on the study of invariant measures. Besides the simplest non-trivial example, namely two…

We prove that the system resulting of coupling the standard map with a fast hyperbolic system is robustly non-uniformly hyperbolic.

This paper continues our investigation of the dynamics of polynomial diffeomorphisms of C^2. We introduce a dynamical property of polynomial diffeomorphisms that generalizes hyperbolicity in the way that semi-hyperbolicity generalizes…

This paper provides a fixed point theorem and iterative construction of a common fixed point for a general class of nonlinear mappings in the setup of uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces. We translate a multi-step iteration, essentially due…

We show that for any closed surface of genus greater than one and for any finite weighted graph filling the surface, there exists a hyperbolic metric which realizes the least Dirichlet energy harmonic embedding of the graph among a fixed…

We prove that for a polynomial diffeomorphism of C^2 , the support of any invariant measure, apart from a few obvious cases, is contained in the closure of the set of saddle periodic points.

In this paper, we extend the concept of generalized entropy to uniform spaces, allowing computations beyond metrizable settings. We apply this to parabolic dynamics - systems with a unique fixed point uniformly attracting all compact…

We determine the image of the (strongly) parabolic Hitchin map for all parabolics in classical groups and $G_2$. Surprisingly, we find that the image is isomorphic to an affine space in all cases, except for certain "bad parabolics" in type…

This paper provides a fixed point theorem for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in uniformly convex hyperbolic spaces as well as new effective results on the Krasnoselski-Mann iterations of such mappings. The latter were found using…

This paper is an extension of an earlier paper that dealt with global dynamics in autonomous triangular maps. In the current paper, we extend the results on global dynamics of autonomous triangular maps to periodic non-autonomous triangular…

This paper provides a theoretical background for Lagrangian Descriptors (LDs). The goal of achieving rigourous proofs that justify the ability of LDs to detect invariant manifolds is simplified by introducing an alternative definition for…

Two planar embedded circle patterns with the same combinatorics and the same intersection angles can be considered to define a discrete conformal map. We show that two locally finite circle patterns covering the unit disc are related by a…

In this paper we generalize the results shown by Das and Peterson. Let $M$ be a ${\rm II}_1$-factor acting on $L^2(M)$. We consider certain unital normal completely positive maps on $B(L^2(M))$ which are identity on $M$. We investigate…

In this article, we present a landing theorem for periodic dynamic rays for transcendental entire maps which have bounded post-singular sets, by using standard hyperbolic geometry results.

The group of conformal diffeomorphisms and the group of causal automorphisms on two-dimensional globally hyperbolic spacetimes are clarified. It is shown that if spacetimes have non-compact Cauchy surfaces, then the groups are subgroups of…

We show the existence of a local stable manifold for a bidirectional discrete-time nondiffeomorphic nonlinear Hamiltonian dynamics. This is the case where zero is a closed loop eigenvalue and therefore the Hamiltonian matrix is not…
