Under some mild assumptions, an orientation-preserving branched covering map of marked $2$-spheres induces a pullback map between the corresponding Teichm\"uller spaces. By analyzing the associated pushforward operator acting on integrable…

In [6], a constraint on invariant measures of bi-permutative cellular automata has been observed: fixed values at the positive indices determine almost-surely a uniform conditional probability on the subset of values of positive conditional…

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…

We analyze a one-dimensional piecewise continuous discrete model proposed originally in studies on population ecology. The map is composed of a linear part and a power-law decreasing piece, and has three parameters. The system presents both…

We consider rational maps $f$ on the Riemann sphere $\widehat {\mathbb{C}}$ with an $f$-invariant set $P\subset \widehat {\mathbb{C}}$ of four marked points containing the postcritical set of $f$. We show that the dynamics of the…

The role of non-inertial frames in a class of models of general relativity is clarified by means of Dirac's theory of constraints. The identification of a York canonical basis allows to give the interpretation of the gauge variables as…

We consider multimodal C^3 interval maps f satisfying a summability condition on the derivatives D_n along the critical orbits which implies the existence of an absolutely continuous f -invariant probability measure mu. If f is…

For each integer $m \geq 1$, we construct a finite-dimensional family of rational maps, given by Blaschke-type products, whose restriction to the unit circle consists of $2m$-multimodal maps. We show that every post-critically finite…

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…

Reactivity, contractivity, and Lyapunov exponents are powerful tools for studying the stability properties of dynamical systems and have been extensively investigated in the literature for decades. In this paper, we review and extend the…

We prove the existence of invariant curves for a $T$--periodic Hamiltonian system which models a fluid stirring in a cylindrical tank, when $T$ is small and the assigned stirring protocol is piecewise constant. Furthermore, using the…

We show that for any irrational number $\a$ and a sequence of integers $\{m_l\}_{l\in \N}$ such that $\displaystyle{\lim_{l\to \infty} \norm{m_l \a} = 0}$, there exists a continuous measure $\mu$ on the circle such that…

In this paper, we present a new method for the analysis of piecewise dynamical systems that are similar to the Collatz conjecture in regard to certain properties of the commutator of their sub-functions. We use the fact that the commutator…

We analyze the two-point motions of iterated function systems on the unit interval generated by expanding and contracting affine maps, where the expansion and contraction rates are determined by a pair $(M,N)$ of integers. This dynamics…

The paper deals with dynamics of expanding Lorenz maps, which appear in a natural way as Poincar\`e maps in geometric models of well-known Lorenz attractor. Using both analytical and symbolic approaches, we study connections between…

Suppose that T is a map of the Wiener space into itself, of the following type: T=I+u where u takes its values in the Cameron-Martin space H. Assume also that u is a finite sum of H-valued multiple Ito-Wiener integrals. In this work we…

This paper is aim to extend Kenneth R. Berg's findings on the maximal entropy theorem and the ergodicity of measure convolution to the case of surjective homomorphisms. We further explores dynamical systems under surjective homomorphism in…

We prove the following converse of the passivity theorem. Consider a causal system given by a sum of a linear time-invariant and a passive linear time-varying input-output map. Then, in order to guarantee stability (in the sense of finite…

We investigate the quantum mechanics of the doubled torus system, introduced by Hull [1] to describe T-folds in a more geometric way. Classically, this system consists of a world-sheet Lagrangian together with some constraints, which reduce…

We develop new local $T1$ theorems to characterize Calder\'on-Zygmund operators that extend boundedly or compactly on $L^{p}(\mathbb R^{n},\mu)$ with $\mu$ a measure of power growth. The results, whose proofs do not require random grids,…
