In this paper we investigate translated cone exchange transformations, a new family of piecewise isometries and renormalize its first return map to a subset of its partition. As a consequence we show that the existence of an embedding of an…
In this paper we study the family of the Lozi maps $L_{a,b} : {\mathbb R}^2 \to {\mathbb R}^2$, $L_{a,b} = (1 + y - a|x|, bx)$, and their strange attractors $\Lambda_{a,b}$. We introduce the set of kneading sequences for the Lozi map and…
The aim of these lectures is the study of bifurcations within holomorphic families of polynomials or rational maps by mean of ergodic and pluripotential theoretic tools.
Following the ideas of [AGG11] about Zt x Z2,2-cocyclic Hadamard matrices, we introduce the notion of diagram, which visually represents any set of coboundaries. Diagrams are a very useful tool for the description and the study of paths and…
A new functional model for pairs of commuting isometries is described. Intertwining operators between such models are then studied in order to approach the classification of invariant subspaces of such pairs.
We study the statistical properties of piecewise expanding maps in the general setting of metric measure spaces. We provide sufficient conditions for exponential mixing of such systems with explicit estimates on the constants. We also…
We discuss the bifurcation structure of homoclinic orbits in bimodal one dimensional maps. The universal structure of these bifurcations with singular bifurcation points and the web of bifurcation lines through the parameter space are…
This paper is concerned with the local bifurcation analysis around typical singularities of piecewise smooth planar dynamical systems. Three-parameter families of a class of non$-$smooth vector fields are studied and the tridimensional…
We describe Gauss-type maps as geometric realizations of certain codes in the monoid of nonnegative matrices in the extended modular group. Each such code, together with an appropriate choice of unimodular intervals in P^1R, determines a…
It is shown that a coupled map model for open flow may exhibit spatial chaos and spatial quasiperiodicity with temporal periodicity. The locations of these patterns, which cover a substantial part of parameter space, are indicated in a…
In this paper we investigate the crossing-sliding bifurcations of planar Filippov systems with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetry. Such bifurcations are triggered by the perturbations of a critical crossing cycle and constitute an important class of…
Motivated by a uniform boundedness conjecture of Morton and Silverman, we study the graphs of pre-periodic points for maps in three families of dynamical systems, namely the collections of rational functions of degree two having a periodic…
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…
We introduce the concept of 2-cyclicity for families of one-dimensional maps with a non-hyperbolic fixed point by analogy to the cyclicity for families of planar vector fields with a weak focus. This new concept is useful in order to study…
We extend the hyperplane arrangement framework for neural network expressivity from the braid to discriminantal arrangements. Compatible piecewise linear functions are characterized by circuit relations and admit a matroidal description via…
We study some special classes of piecewise continuous maps on a finite smooth partition of a compact manifold and look for invariant measures for such maps. We show that in the simplest one-dimensional case (so-called interval translation…
Numerical computations of bifurcation maps for one dimensional maps show patterns (regular jumps in point density) in the zones of chaotic behaviour. In this work, empiric formulas are given for these patterns for an entire class of maps.
Self-inducing structure of pentagonal piecewise isometry is applied to show detailed description of periodic and aperiodic orbits, and further dynamical properties. A Pisot number appears as a scaling constant and plays a crucial role in…
We address the problem of giving necessary and sufficient conditions in order to have robustly transitive endomorphisms admitting persistent critical sets. We exhibit different type of open examples of robustly transitive maps in any…
