The Conley index theory is a powerful topological tool for obtaining information about invariant sets in continuous dynamical systems. A key feature of Conley theory is that the index is robust under perturbation; given a continuous family…
For a continuous flow on a compact metric space, the aim of this paper is to prove a Conley-type decomposition of the strong chain recurrent set. We first discuss in details the main properties of strong chain recurrent sets. We then…
By studying spaces of flow graphs in a closed oriented manifold, we construct operations on its cohomology, parametrized by the homology of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces with boundary marked points. We show that the…
We prove a theorem on structural stability of smooth attractor-repellor endomorphisms of compact manifolds, with singularities. By attractor-repellor, we mean that the non-wandering set of the dynamics $f$ is the disjoint union of a…
In~\cite{rotvandervorst} a homology theory --Morse-Conley-Floer homology-- for isolated invariant sets of arbitrary flows on finite dimensional manifolds is developed. In this paper we investigate functoriality and duality of this homology…
For a simply connected closed orientable manifold of dimension $6$, we show its homotopy decomposition after double suspension. This allows us to determine its $K$- and $KO$-groups easily. Moreover, for a special case we refine the…
We relate stability properties (i.e. moment exponents) of a stochastic dynamical system on a compact manifold $M$ to the homotopy and integral homology groups of $M$. In the special case of gradient Brownian systems associated to isometric…
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…
We construct a stable infinity category with objects flow categories and morphisms flow bimodules; our construction has many flavors, related to a choice of bordism theory, and we discuss in particular framed bordism and the bordism theory…
We find attractor equations describing moduli stabilization for heterotic compactifications with generic SU(3)-structure. Complex structure and K\"ahler moduli are treated on equal footing by using SU(3)xSU(3)-structure at intermediate…
In this paper we provide a dynamical characterization of isolated invariant continua which are global attractors for planar dissipative flows. As a consequence, a sufficient condition for an isolated invariant continuum to be either an…
Let $M$ be a smooth, orientable, closed, connected $4$-manifold and suppose that $H_1(M;\mathbb{Z})$ is finitely generated and has no $2$-torsion. We give a homotopy decomposition of the suspension of $M$ in terms of spheres, Moore spaces…
We study in this paper global properties, mainly of topological nature, of attractors of discrete dynamical systems. We consider the Andronov-Hopf bifurcation for homeomorphisms of the plane and establish some robustness properties for…
We study the homotopy decompositions of the suspension $\Sigma M$ of an $(n-1)$-connected $(2n+2)$ dimensional Poincar\'{e} duality complex $M$, $n\geq 2$. In particular, we completely determine the homotopy types of $\Sigma M$ of a…
Using Conley theory we show that local attractors remain (past) attractors under small non-autonomous perturbations. In particular, the attractors of the perturbed systems will have positive invariant neighborhoods and converge upper…
The homotopy theory of small functors is a useful tool for studying various questions in homotopy theory. In this paper, we develop the homotopy theory of small functors from spectra to spectra, and study its interplay with…
Continuing the study of Hamiltonian pseudo-rotations of projective spaces, we focus on the conjecture that the fixed-point data set (the actions and the linearized flows at one-periodic orbits) of a pseudo-rotation exactly matches that data…
We show that attractors are semicontinuous for closed relations on compact Hausdorff spaces. Semicontinuity is what guarantees that small changes to a system do not result in massive growth of certain features, notably attractors. That is,…
In this paper we develop homology and cohomology theories which play the same role for real projective varieties that Lawson homology and morphic cohomology play for projective varieties respectively. They have nice properties such as the…
In this paper we study the Lorenz equations using the perspective of the Conley index theory. More specifically, we examine the evolution of the strange set that these equations posses throughout the different values of the parameter. We…
