A pair of linearly independent asymptotic solutions are constructed for the second-order linear difference equation {equation*} P_{n+1}(x)-(A_{n}x+B_{n})P_{n}(x)+P_{n-1}(x)=0, {equation*} where $A_n$ and $B_n$ have asymptotic expansions of…

Examples are given of tent maps $T$ for which there exist non-trivial sets $B \subset [0,1]$ such that $T:B \to B$ is a homeomorphism.

If a probability density p(\x) (\x\in\R^k) is bounded and R(t) := \int \exp(t\ell(\x)) \d\x < \infty for some linear functional \ell and all t\in(0,1), then, for each t\in(0,1) and all large enough n, the n-fold convolution of the t-tilted…

We show that for the standard map family, for all values of the parameter, except one, the mapping has positive topological entropy. The main tool is the following result. Let $S$ be a compact connected orientable surface and $f:S…

Let $I\subset\mathbb{R}$ be an interval and $T_a:[0,1]\to[0,1]$, $a\in I$, a one-parameter family of piecewise expanding maps such that for each $a\in I$ the map $T_a$ admits a unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measure…

Linear response theory asserts that sufficiently small external biases produce currents proportional to the applied force and forms the theoretical foundation of nonequilibrium transport. Here we demonstrate that linear response can break…

We consider the question of existence of a unique invariant probability distribution which satisfies some evolutionary property. The problem arises from the random graph theory but to answer it we treat it as a dynamical system in the…

We use porosity to study differentiability of Lipschitz maps on Carnot groups. Our first result states that directional derivatives of a Lipschitz function act linearly outside a $\sigma$-porous set. The second result states that irregular…

Exponential families encompass the distributions central to modern machine learning -- softmax, Gaussians, and Boltzmann distributions -- and underlie the theory of variational inference, entropy-regularized reinforcement learning, and…

Concentrated forces acting at the tip of a two-dimensional wedge give rise to the classical Flamant solution to linear elasticity, whose displacement and strain are singular at the tip of the wedge. Starting from nonlinear elasticity, we…

A positive function (conductivity) on the edges of a graph induces the Dirichlet-to- Neumann map between boundary values of harmonic functions. The inverse conductivity problem is to find the conductivity from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map.…

For area-preserving H\'enon-like maps and their compositions, we consider smooth perturbations that keep the reversibility of the initial maps but destroy their conservativity. For constructing such perturbations, we use two methods, the…

Given a closed, orientable surface of constant negative curvature and genus $g \ge 2$, we study a family of generalized Bowen-Series boundary maps and prove the following rigidity result: in this family the topological entropy is constant…

When a linear model is adjusted to control for additional explanatory variables the sign of a fitted coefficient may reverse. Here these reversals are studied using coefficients of determination. The resulting theory can be used to…

It has been known for some time that the topological entropy is a nondecreasing function of the parameter in the real quadratic family, which corresponds to the intuitive idea that more nonlinearity induces more complex dynamical behavior.…

We provide a general framework to study differentiability of SRB measures for one dimensional non-uniformly expanding maps. Our technique is based on inducing the non-uniformly expanding system to a uniformly expanding one, and on showing…

In this paper we prove that the monotonicity of kneading sequences and topological entropy, a fundamental structural property of the quadratic family, extends to the class of power-law unimodal maps $f_a(x)=a-|x|^r$ for arbitrary critical…

In this paper we show that the group of automorphisms of a non-recurrent tent map inverse limit is very simple by demonstrating that every homeomorphism of such a space is isotopic to a power of the induced shift homeomorphism.

Let $g:\, [0, 1]\rightarrow [0, 1]$ be piecewise linear unimodal map. We say that $g$ has non-trivial piecewise linear commutator, if there is a continuous piecewise linear $\psi:\, [0, 1]\rightarrow [0, 1]$ such that $g\circ \psi =…

For a certain parametrized family of maps on the circle, with critical points and logarithmic singularities where derivatives blow up to infinity, a positive measure set of parameters was constructed in [19], corresponding to maps which…
