When finding an original proof to a known result describing expansive mappings on compact metric spaces as surjective isometries, we reveal that relaxing the condition of compactness to total boundedness preserves the isometry property and…

Finite metric spaces are the object of study in many data analysis problems. We examine the concept of weak isometry between finite metric spaces, in order to analyse properties of the spaces that are invariant under strictly increasing…

We study the set of invariant idempotent probabilities for place dependent idempotent iterated function systems defined in compact metric spaces. Using well-known ideas from dynamical systems, such as the Ma\~{n}\'{e} potential and the…

In this paper we introduce a metrics on the space of idempotent probability measures on a given compactum, which extends the metrics on the compactum. It is proven the introduced metrics generates the pointwise convergence topology on the…

A class of piecewise affine hyperbolic maps on a bounded subset of the plane is considered. It is shown that if a map from this class is sufficiently area-expanding then almost surely this map has an absolutely continuous invariant measure.

Any ergodic measure of a smooth map on a compact manifold has a multifractal spectrum with one point - the dimension of the measure itself - at the diagonal. We will construct examples where this fails in the most drastic way for invariant…

Any measure $\mu$ on a CAT(k) space M that is stratified as a finite union of manifolds and has local exponential maps near the Fr\'echet mean $\bar\mu$ yields a continuous "tangential collapse" from the tangent cone of M at $\bar\mu$ to a…

The Bass trace conjectures are placed in the setting of homotopy idempotent selfmaps of manifolds. For the strong conjecture, this is achieved via a formulation of Geoghegan. The weaker form of the conjecture is reformulated as a comparison…

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…

In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, satisfying a general contractive inequality depending of two additional mappings.

We describe all linear operators which maps $n-1$-dimensional simplex of idempotent measures to itself. Such operators divided to two classes: the first class contains all $n\times n$-matrices with non-negative entries which has at least…

We present an exposition of contractive spaces and of relatively contractive maps. Contractive spaces are the natural opposite of measure-preserving actions and relatively contractive maps the natural opposite of relatively…

For a large class of nonuniformly expanding maps of $\Bbb R^m$, with indifferent fixed points and unbounded distorsion and non necessarily Markovian, we construct an absolutely continuous invariant measure. We extend to our case techniques…

In this paper, we focus on homogeneous spaces which are constructed from two strongly isotropy irreducible spaces, and prove that any geodesic orbit metric on these spaces is naturally reductive.

The first aim of this paper is to examine some important properties of soft metric spaces. Second is to introduce soft continuous mappings and investigate properties of soft continuous mappings. Third is to prove some fixed point theorems…

We present three equivalence classes of rational non-invertible multidimensional compatible maps. These maps turns out to be idempotent and by construction they admit birational partial inverses (companion maps) which are Yang-Baxter maps.…

Let $X,Y$ be algebraic varieties defined over $\Bbb R$. Assume $Y$ is smooth and $X$ is Gorenstein. Suppose $\varphi:X\to Y$ is a flat $\Bbb R$-morphism such that all the fibers have rational singularities. We show that the pushforward of…

For continuous maps on a compact manifold M, particularly for those that do not preserve the Lebesgue measure m, we define the observable invariant probability measures as a generalization of the physical measures. We prove that any…

This paper, originally motivated by a question raised by Wood and Hanna [Soft Matter, 15, 2411 (2019)], shows that pure measures of bending for soft plates can be defined by introducing the class of bending-neutral deformations, finite…

A measurable map between measure spaces is shown to have bounded compression if and only if its image via the measure-algebra functor is Lipschitz-continuous w.r.t. the measure-algebra distances. This provides a natural interpretation of…
