Two kinds of maps that describe evolution of states of a subsystem coming from dynamics described by a unitary operator for a larger system, maps defined for fixed mean values and maps defined for fixed correlations, are found to be quite…

We say that $f:[0,1]\to [0,1]$ is a {\it piecewise continuous interval map} if there exists a partition $0=x_0<x_1<\cdots<x_{d}<x_{d+1}=1$ of $[0,1]$ such that $f\vert_{(x_{i-1},x_i)}$ is continuous and the lateral limits $w_0^+=\lim_{x\to…

The Hamiltonian Hopf bifurcation has an integrable normal form that describes the passage of the eigenvalues of an equilibrium through the 1: -1 resonance. At the bifurcation the pure imaginary eigenvalues of the elliptic equilibrium turn…

The key result of this article is key lemma: if a Jordan curve $\gamma$ is invariant by a given C 1+$\alpha$ -diffeomorphism f of a surface and if $\gamma$ carries an ergodic hyperbolic probability $\mu$, then $\mu$ is supported on a…

For a nonorientable surface, the twist subgroup is an index 2 subgroup of the mapping class group. It is generated by Dehn twists about two-sided simple closed curves. In this paper, we study involution generators of the twist subgroup. We…

Assume that the interval $I=[0,1)$ is partitioned into finitely many intervals $I_1,\dots,I_r$ and consider a map $T\colon I\to I$ so that $T_{\vert I_s}$ is a translation for each $1 \le s \le r$. We do not assume that the images of these…

One of the most basic, longstanding open problems in the theory of dynamical systems is whether reachability is decidable for one-dimensional piecewise affine maps with two intervals. In this paper we prove that for injective maps, it is…

For area-preserving twist maps on the annulus, we consider the problem on quantitative destruction of invariant circles with a given frequency $\omega$ of an integrable system by a trigonometric polynomial of degree $N$ perturbation $R_N$…

Let t_a be the Dehn twist about a circle a on an orientable surface. It is well known that for each circle b and an integer n, I(t_a^n(b),b)=|n|I(a,b)^2, where I(,) is the geometric intersection number. We prove a similar formula for…

Consider the two-parameter family of real analytic maps $F_{a,b}:x \mapsto x+ a+{b\over 2\pi} \sin(2\pi x)$ which are lifts of degree one endomorphisms of the circle. The purpose of this paper is to provide a proof that for any closed…

We explore the dynamics of graph maps with zero topological entropy. It is shown that a continuous map $f$ on a topological graph $G$ has zero topological entropy if and only if it is locally mean equicontinuous, that is the dynamics on…

We show that the fibred rotation number associated to an indifferent invariant curve for a fibred holomorphic map is a topological invariant.

The lowest order resonant bifurcations of a periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom have frequency ratio 1:1 (saddle-centre) and 1:2 (period-doubling). The twist, which is the derivative of the rotation number…

We prove that for continuous maps on the interval, the existence of an n-cycle, implies the existence of n-1 points which interwind the original ones and are permuted by the map. We then use this combinatorial result to show that piecewise…

We study the asymptotical behaviour of iterates of piecewise contractive maps of the interval. It is known that Poincar\'e first return maps induced by some Cherry flows on transverse intervals are, up to topological conjugacy, piecewise…

We provide an equivalent characterisation for the existence of one-dimensional irrational rotation factors of conservative torus homeomorphisms that are not eventually annular. It states that an area-preserving non-annular torus…

We prove that for a large and important class of $C^1$ twist maps of the torus periodic and quasi-periodic orbits of a new type exist, provided that there are no rotational invariant circles (R.I.C's). These orbits have a non-zero…

Inspired by the work of Katznelson and Ornstein, we present a short way to achieve the almost optimal regularity in Moser's twist theorem. Specifically, for an integrable area-preserving twist map, the invariant circle with a given constant…

In this note, continuous transitive maps $f$ on the interval $I$ are re-addressed, where $I$ denotes one of the intervals: $(-\infty, \infty)$, $(-\infty, a]$, $[b, \infty)$, $[a, b]$, where $a < b$ are real numbers. Such maps must have a…

We consider a family of Pomeau-Manneville type interval maps $T_\alpha$, parametrized by $\alpha \in (0,1)$, with the unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measures $\nu_\alpha$, and rate of correlations decay $n^{1-1/\alpha}$.…
