Several attractive properties of hydrocarbon-linked mesogenic dimers have been discovered, a major feature of these has been the ability of dimers under confinement to form periodic patterns. At least six different types of stripe-like…

When a periodic 1D system described by a tight-binding model is uniformly initialized with equal amplitudes at all sites, yet with completely random phases, it evolves into a thermal distribution with no spatial correlations. However, when…

Let M be a compact manifold of dimension at least 2, Diff^r(M) be the space of C^r diffeomorphisms of M. Define for any diffeomorphism f in Diff^r(M) number of isolated periodic points of period n by P_n(f)=# {isolated x in M: f^n(x)=x}.…

This work is motivated by the following question in data-driven study of dynamical systems: given a dynamical system that is observed via time series of persistence diagrams that encode topological features of solutions snapshots, what…

In this article, we study the periodic points for continuous self-maps on the wedge sum of topological manifolds, exhibiting a particular combinatorial structure. We compute explicitly the Lefschetz numbers, the Dold coefficients and…

By studying various rational integrable maps on $\mathbf{\hat C}^d$ with $p$ invariants, we show that periodic points form an invariant variety of dimension $\ge p$ for each period, in contrast to the case of nonintegrable maps in which…

In this paper we present a uniform way to derive families of maps from the corresponding differential equations describing systems which experience periodic kicks. The families depend on a single parameter - the order of a differential…

This work is devoted to study the existence of periodic solutions for a family of discontinuous differential systems $Z(x,y;\epsilon)$ with many zones. We show that for $\epsilon$ sufficiently small the averaged functions at any order…

In this paper, we establish a coupling lemma for standard families in the setting of piecewise expanding interval maps with countably many branches. Our method merely requires that the expanding map satisfies Chernov's one-step expansion at…

We introduce "logically contractive mappings" nonexpansive self-maps that contract along a subsequence of iterates and prove a fixed-point theorem that extends Banach's principle. We obtain event-indexed convergence rates and, under bounded…

In this paper we consider a class of nonlinear periodic differential systems perturbed by two nonlinear periodic terms with multiplicative different powers of a small parameter $e>0$. For such a class of systems we provide conditions which…

We study a class of square matrices with non-negative elements which have cyclically monotone rows in the sense that each row of a matrix from the class consists of a cyclically non-increasing sequence of numbers starting from a maximal…

A shift-periodic map is a one-dimensional map from the real line to itself which is periodic up to a linear translation and allowed to have singularities. It is shown that iterative sequences $x_{n+1}=F(x_n)$ generated by such maps display…

Let {f_t} be any algebraic family of rational maps of a fixed degree, with a marked critical point c(t). We first prove that the hypersurfaces of parameters for which c(t) is periodic converge as a sequence of positive closed (1,1) currents…

A continuum $X$ is a dendrite if it is locally connected and contains no simple closed curve, a self mapping $f$ of $X$ is called monotone if the preimage of any connected subset of $X$ is connected. If $X$ is a dendrite and $f:X\to X$ is a…

Periodic orbit action correlations are studied for the piecewise linear, area-preserving Baker map. Semiclassical periodic orbit formulae together with universal spectral statistics in the corresponding quantum Baker map suggest the…

Nonexpansive mappings play a central role in modern optimization and monotone operator theory because their fixed points can describe solutions to optimization or critical point problems. It is known that when the mappings are sufficiently…

Dynamical systems generated by $d\ge2$ commuting homeomorphisms (topological $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions) contain within them structures on many scales, and in particular contain many actions of $\mathbb{Z}^k$ for $1\le k\le d$. Familiar…

We study the dependence of the topological entropy of piecewise monotonic maps with holes under perturbations, for example sliding a hole of fixed size at uniform speed or expanding a hole with uniform expansion. We show that under suitable…
