We describe the boundary of chaos separating regions of parameter space with positive topological entropy from those with zero topological entropy for a class of piecewise smooth maps. This coincides with the boundary of positive Hausdorff…
We study infinite graph-directed iterated function systems (GIFS) whose underlying graph is not strongly connected and has countably many vertices and edges. In addition to a summability condition for the physical potential, we provide…
We give a structural characterisation of linear operators from one $C^\ast$% -algebra into another whose adjoints map extreme points of the dual ball onto extreme points. We show that up to a $\ast$-isomorphism, such a map admits of a…
We consider some two-dimensional birational transformations. One of them is a birational deformation of the H\'enon map. For some of these birational mappings, the post critical set (i.e. the iterates of the critical set) is infinite and we…
We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…
We give an example of a totally disconnected set E in R^3 which is not removable for quasiconformal homeomorphisms, i.e., there is a homeomorphism f of R^3 to itself which is quasiconformal off E, but not quasiconformal on all of R^3. The…
We review the motivation and fundamental properties of the Hausdorff dimension of metric spaces and illustrate this with a number of examples, some of which are expected and well-known. We also give examples where the Hausdorff dimension…
We study circle maps with a flat interval where the critical exponents at the two boundary points of the flat spot might be different. The space of such systems is partitioned in two connected parts whose common boundary only depends on the…
We study bifurcations of invariant graphs in skew product dynamical systems driven by hyperbolic surface maps T like Anosov surface diffeomorphisms or baker maps and with one-dimensional concave fibre maps under multiplicative forcing when…
We study order-preserving C^1-circle diffeomorphisms driven by irrational rotations with a Diophantine rotation number. We show that there is a non-empty open set of one-parameter families of such diffeomorphisms where the ergodic measures…
The Epstein deformation space parameterizes marked rational maps with prescribed combinatorial and dynamical structure. For the family of quadratic rational maps with a periodic critical cycle of order 4 and an extra critical point not…
The classical Painlev\'e theorem tells that sets of zero length are removable for bounded analytic functions, while (some) sets of positive length are not. For general $K$-quasiregular mappings in planar domains the corresponding critical…
In this paper we consider maps on the plane which are similar to quadratic maps in that they are degree 2 branched covers of the plane. In fact, consider for $\alpha$ fixed, maps $f_c$ which have the following form (in polar coordinates):…
In this paper we study critical sets of solutions $u_\e$ of second-order elliptic equations in divergence form with rapidly oscillating and periodic coefficients. We show that the $(d-2)$-dimensional Hausdorff measures of the critical sets…
We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…
The present paper is devoted to the study of classes of mappings with non--bounded characteristics of quasiconformality. It is proved that the normal families of mappings distorting the families of mappings in ${\Bbb R}^n$ by special way,…
Quasiconformal maps in the complex plane are homeomorphisms that satisfy certain geometric distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses with bounded eccentricity. The local distortion properties of these maps give…
It is known that the famous Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser period doubling universality has a counterpart for area-preserving maps of ${\fR}^2$. A renormalization approach has been used in \cite{EKW1} and \cite{EKW2} in a computer-assisted…
As a model to provide a hands-on, elementary understanding of chaotic dynamics in dimension three, we introduce a $C^2$-open set of diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb R^3$ having two horseshoes with different dimensions of instability. We prove…
Random systems of curves exhibiting fluctuating features on arbitrarily small scales ($\delta$) are often encountered in critical models. For such systems it is shown that scale-invariant bounds on the probabilities of crossing events imply…
