We consider the dynamics of `nonlinear tent maps': piecewise smooth unimodal maps with nowhere vanishing derivative. We show that if a nonlinear tent map $f$ is not infinitely renormalizable, then all its periodic orbits of sufficiently…

In this paper we show that every homeomorphism of the plane with the topological shadowing property has a fixed point. Also, we show that a linear isomorphism of an Euclidean space has the topological shadowing property if and only if the…

Given a two--dimensional mapping $U$ whose components solve a divergence structure elliptic equation, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on the boundary so that $U$ is a global diffeomorphism.

An area-preserving homeomorphism isotopic to the identity is said to have rational rotation direction if its rotation vector is a real multiple of a rational class. We give a short proof that any area-preserving homeomorphism of a compact…

Let phi be a Dubins-Freedman random homeomorphism on [0,1] derived from the base measure uniform on the vertical line x=1/2, and let f be a periodic function satisfying that |f(x)-f(0)| = o(1/log log log 1/x). Then the Fourier expansion of…

The study of the dynamics of a surface homeomorphism in the neighbourhood of an isolated fixed point leads us to the following results. If the fixed point index is greater than 1, a family of attractive and repulsive petals is constructed,…

Let $f,g\in\mathbb{C}[z]\setminus\mathbb{C}$ and $c\in\mathbb{C}[z]$. Suppose that $\mathrm{deg}(c)=1$ if $\mathrm{deg}(f)=\mathrm{deg}(g)=1$. Using the theory of Presburger arithmetic, we prove that the rank-two recurrence set…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the existence and Hausdorff dimension as well as fractal dimension of global attractors for a delayed reaction-diffusion equation on an unbounded domain. The noncompactness of the domain causes…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a homeomorphism on $X$. We show that if $f$ is both pointwise recurrent and expansive, then the dynamical system $(X, f)$ is topologically conjugate to a subshift of some…

We study the long-time behavior of solutions of the one dimensional wave equation with nonlinear damping coefficient. We prove that if the damping coefficient function is strictly positive near the origin then this equation possesses a…

Let $E$ be a linear space and suppose that $A$ is the global attractor of either (i) a homeomorphism $F:E\rightarrow E$ or (ii) a semigroup $S(\cdot)$ on $E$ that is injective on $A$. In both cases $A$ has trivial shape, and the dynamics on…

Well known Simpson's paradox is puzzling and surprising for many, especially for the empirical researchers and users of statistics. However there is no surprise as far as mathematical details are concerned. A lot more is written about the…

The irrationality exponent of a real number measures how well that number can be approximated by rationals. Real numbers with irrationality exponent strictly greater than $2$ are transcendental numbers, and form a set with rich fractal…

For a hyperbolic map f on a saddle type fractal Lambda with self-intersections, the number of f- preimages of a point x in Lambda may depend on x. This makes estimates of the stable dimensions more difficult than for diffeomorphisms or for…

Planar polynomial automorphisms are polynomial maps of the plane whose inverse is also a polynomial map. A map is reversible if it is conjugate to its inverse. Here we obtain a normal form for automorphisms that are reversible by an…

Let $M$ be a connected compact orientable surface, $f:M\to \mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function, and $h:M\to M$ be a diffeomorphism which preserves $f$ in the sense that $f\circ h = f$. We will show that if $h$ leaves invariant each regular…

Some known relativistic paradoxes are reconsidered for closed spaces, using a simple geometric model. For two twins in a closed space, a real paradox seems to emerge when the traveling twin is moving uniformly along a geodesic and returns…

The purpose of this paper is to study the limiting distribution of special {\it additive functionals} on random planar maps, namely the number of occurrences of a given {\it pattern}. The main result is a central limit theorem for these…

In one complex variable it is well known that if we consider the family of all holomorphic functions on the unit disc that fix the origin and with first derivative equal to 1 at the origin, then there exists a constant $\rho$, independent…

We consider the general second order difference equation $x_{n+1}=F(x_n,x_{n-1})$ in which $F$ is continuous and of mixed monotonicity in its arguments. In equations with negative terms, a persistent set can be a proper subset of the…
