We prove a generalization of the Conley conjecture: Every Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed symplectic manifold has infinitely many periodic orbits if the first Chern class vanishes over the second fundamental group. In particular, we…
In this work we study homeomorphisms of closed orientable surfaces homotopic to the identity, focusing on the existence of non-contractible periodic orbits. We show that, if $g$ is such a homeomorphism, and if $\hat g$ is its lift to the…
In this paper we define and study the billiard problem on bounded regions on surfaces of constant curvature. We show that this problem defines a 2-dimensional conservative and reversible dynamical system, defined by a Twist diffeomorphism,…
We consider the rotation set $\rho(F)$ for a lift $F$ of an area preserving homeomorphism $f: \t^2\to \t^2$, which is homotopic to the identity. The relationship between this set and the existence of periodic points for $f$ is least well…
We investigate global continuation of periodic orbits of a differential equation depending on a parameter, assuming that a closed 1-form satisfying certain properties exists. We begin by extending the global continuation theory of…
We will show that if a dynamical system has enough constants of motion then a Moser-Weinstein type theorem can be applied for proving the existence of periodic orbits in the case when the linearized system is degenerate.
This paper concerns the existence of multiple rotating periodic solutions for $2n$ dimensional convex Hamiltonian systems. For the symplectic orthogonal matrix $Q$, the rotating periodic solution has the form of $z(t+T)=Qz(t)$, which might…
We prove that for a dynamical system on an algebraic variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ generated by finitely many unramified endomorphisms, it is decidable whether a given point has a finite orbit. This is achieved by establishing an…
We study dynamics and bifurcations of two-dimensional reversible maps having non-transversal heteroclinic cycles containing symmetric saddle periodic points. We consider one-parameter families of reversible maps unfolding generally the…
We prove that for a generic family of circle diffeomorphisms every parameter value that corresponds to an irrational rotation number is approximated by parameter values for which the diffeomorphisms have arbitrarily large finite numbers of…
Let $K$ be the Cantor set. We prove that arbitrarily close to a homeomorphism $T:K\rightarrow K$ there exists a homeomorphism $\widetilde T:K\rightarrow K$ such that the $\alpha$-limit and the $\omega$-limit of every orbit is a periodic…
The famous conjecture of V.Ya.Ivrii (1978) says that {\it in every billiard with infinitely-smooth boundary in a Euclidean space the set of periodic orbits has measure zero}. In the present paper we study the complex version of Ivrii's…
An orientation-preserving recurrent homeomorphism of the two-sphere which is not the identity is shown to admit exactly two fixed points. A recurrent homeomorphism of a compact surface with negative Euler characteristic is periodic.
Given a polynomial or a rational map f we associate to it a space of maps. We introduce local coordinates in this space, which are essentially the set of critical values of the map. Then we consider an arbitrary periodic orbit of f with…
In this article, we give two refinements of Franks' theorem: For orientation and area preserving homeomorphisms of the closed or open annulus, the existence of $k$-periodic orbits ($(k,n_0)=1$) forces the existence of infinitely many…
Ruitenburg's Theorem says that every endomorphism f of a finitely generated free Heyting algebra is ultimately periodic if f fixes all the generators but one. More precisely, there is N $\ge$ 0 such that f N +2 = f N , thus the period…
We study a class of maps having the Collatz function (famously related to the Collatz Conjecture) as an example, under the topological and ergodic perspectives, including an approach with thermodynamic formalism. By introducing a key…
We prove that any Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed symplectic manifold equipped with an atoroidal symplectic form has simple non-contractible periodic orbits of arbitrarily large period, provided that the diffeomorphism has a…
This paper is about the existence of periodic orbits near an equilibrium point of a two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian system. The equilibrium is supposed to be a nondegenerate minimum of the Hamiltonian. Every sphere-like component of the…
We show that all bounded trajectories in the two dimensional classical system with the potential $V(r,\phi)=\omega^2 r^2+ \frac{\al k^2}{r^2 \cos^2 {k \phi}}+ \frac{\beta k^2}{r^2 \sin^2 {k \phi}}$ are closed for all integer and rational…
