An S-approximation space is a novel approach to study systems with uncertainty that are not expressible in terms of inclusion relations. In this work, we further examined these spaces, mostly from a topological point of view by a…
The dynamics by iteration of a function on a compact metric space, sometimes called a cascade, can be extended to the dynamics of a closed relation on such a space. Here we apply this relation dynamics to study semiflows (and their relation…
We introduce an extension of hamiltonian dynamics, defined on hyperkahler manifolds, which we call ``hyperhamiltonian dynamics''. We show that this has many of the attractive features of standard hamiltonian dynamics. We also discuss the…
This paper surveys some results and methods in topological transformation groups.
This article gives a brief overview of the status of attempts to constrain inflation using observations, and examines prospects for future developments.
We prove that generically and modulo a topological conjugacy there is only one dynamical system.
Let $T\times X\rightarrow X, (t,x)\mapsto tx$, be a topological semiflow on a topological space $X$ with phase semigroup $T$. We introduce and discuss in this paper various transitivity dynamics of $(T,X)$.
These notes aim to give an introduction to a few aspects of noncommutative geometry.
This paper provides an elementary introduction to the basic concepts used in describing epitaxial crystal growth in terms of the thermodynamics and kinetics of atomic steps. Selected applications to morphological instabilities of stepped…
We formulate a dynamical system based on many-index objects. These objects yield a generalization of the Heisenberg's equation. Systems describing harmonic oscillators are given.
Let a finite set of interacting particles be given, together with a symmetry Lie group $G$. Here we describe all possible dynamics that are jointly equivariant with respect to the action of $G$. This is relevant e.g., when one aims to…
We introduce some tools of symbolic dynamics to study the hyperbolic directions of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, emulating the well known methods available for uniformly hyperbolic systems.
This article investigates the homotopy theory of simplicial commutative algebras with a view to homological applications.
This is the first chapter in our "Toric Topology" book project. Further chapters are coming. Comments and suggestions are very welcome.
This short note is an "elementary'' introduction to the conjectural theory of motives.
In this paper we show how almost cosymplectic structures are a natural framework to study thermodynamical systems. Indeed, we are able to obtain the same evolution equations obtained previously by Gay-Balmaz and Yoshimura (see Entropy,…
This article summarises a Web-book on "Complexity" that was developed to introduce undergraduate students to interesting complex systems in the biological, physical and social sciences, and the common tools, principles and concepts used for…
This is a self-contained tour of the Conley index and connection matrices. The starting point is Conley's fundamental theorem of dynamical systems. There is a short stop at the necessary topological background, before we proceed to the…
This is an informal discussion on one of the basic problems in the theory of empirical processes, addressed in our preprint "Combinatorics of random processes and sections of convex bodies", which is available at ArXiV and from our web…
This paper focuses on rotational phenomena of rigid body kinematics. It discusses them in a group-theoretic approach as completely as possible, using methods and notations as intuitive as possible. With a review of current literature, this…
