Bounds for compact invariant sets of the system describing dynamics of the nuclear spin generator

This paper is concerned with the localization problem of compact invariant sets of the system describing dynamics of the nuclear spin generator. We establish that all compact invariant sets of this system are located in the intersection of a ball with two frusta and compute its parameters. In addition, localization by using the two-parameter set of parabolic cylinders is described. Our results are obtained with help of the iteration theorem concerning a localization of compact invariant sets. One numerical example illustrating a localization of a chaotic attractor is presented as well.     

Bounding a domain containing all compact invariant sets of the permanent-magnet motor system

In this paper we characterize a locus of compact invariant sets of the system describing dynamics of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). We establish that all compact invariant sets of this system are contained in the intersection of one-parameter set of ellipsoids and compute its parameters. In addition, localizations by using a parabolic cylinder, an elliptic paraboloid and a hyperbolic cylinder are obtained. Simple polytopic bounds are derived with help of these localizations. Most of localizations mentioned above remain valid for more specific motor systems; namely, for the interior magnet PMSM and for the surface magnet PMSM. Yet another localization set for the interior magnet PMSM is described. Examples of localization of chaotic attractors existing for some values of parameters of PMSMs are presented as well.     

Bounds for a new chaotic system and its application in chaos synchronization

This paper has investigated the localization problem of compact invariant sets of a new chaotic system with the help of the iteration theorem and the first order extremum theorem. If there are more iterations, then the estimation for the bound of the system will be more accurate, because the shape of the chaotic attractor is irregular. We establish that all compact invariant sets of this system are located in the intersection of a ball with two frusta and we also compute its parameters. It is a great advantage that we can attain a smaller bound of the chaotic attractor compared with the classical method. One numerical example illustrating a localization of a chaotic attractor is presented as well.     

Localization of compact invariant sets and global stability in analysis of one tumor growth model

In this paper, we study some features of global behavior of the four‐dimensional superficial bladder cancer model with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) immunotherapy described by Bunimovich‐Mendrazitsky et al. in 2007 with the help of localization analysis of its compact invariant sets. Its dynamics is defined by the BCG treatment and by densities of three cells populations: effector cells, tumor infected cells by BCG, and tumor uninfected cells. We find upper bounds for ultimate dynamics of the whole state vector in the positive orthant and also under condition that there are no uninfected tumor cells. Further, we prove the existence of the bounded positively invariant domain in both of these two situations. Finally, by using these assertions, we derive our main result: sufficient conditions of global asymptotic stability of the tumor‐free equilibrium point in the positive orthant.

Lipschitzian retracts and curves as invariant sets

By an invariant set in a metric space we mean a non-empty compact set K such that K = ⋃ _i=1 ⁿ T _i (K) for some contractions T ₁, …, T _n of the space. We prove that, under not too restrictive conditions, the union of finitely many invariant sets is an invariant set. Hence we establish collage theorems for non-affine invariant sets in terms of Lipschitzian retracts. We show that any rectifiable curve is an invariant set though there is a simple arc which is not an invariant set.      

Aubry‐Mather theory and periodic solutions of the forced Burgers equation

Consider a Hamiltonian system with Hamiltonian of the form H(x, t, p) where H is convex in p and periodic in x, and t and x ∈ ℝ¹. It is well‐known that its smooth invariant curves correspond to smooth Z²‐periodic solutions of the PDE u_t + H(x, t, u)_x = 0. In this paper, we establish a connection between the Aubry‐Mather theory of invariant sets of the Hamiltonian system and Z²‐periodic weak solutions of this PDE by realizing the Aubry‐Mather sets as closed subsets of the graphs of these weak solutions. We show that the complement of the Aubry‐Mather set on the graph can be viewed as a subset of the generalized unstable manifold of the Aubry‐Mather set, defined in (2.24). The graph itself is a backward‐invariant set of the Hamiltonian system. The basic idea is to embed the globally minimizing orbits used in the Aubry‐Mather theory into the characteristic fields of the above PDE. This is done by making use of one‐ and two‐sided minimizers, a notion introduced in [12] and inspired by the work of Morse on geodesics of type A [26]. The asymptotic slope of the minimizers, also known as the rotation number, is given by the derivative of the homogenized Hamiltonian, defined in [21]. As an application, we prove that the Z²‐periodic weak solution of the above PDE with given irrational asymptotic slope is unique. A similar connection also exists in multidimensional problems with the convex Hamiltonian, except that in higher dimensions, two‐sided minimizers with a specified asymptotic slope may not exist. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Bounds for a domain containing all compact invariant sets of the system describing the laser–plasma interaction

In this paper we consider the localization problem of compact invariant sets of the system describing the laser–plasma interaction. We establish that this system has an ellipsoidal localization for simple restrictions imposed on its parameters. Then we improve this localization by applying other localizing functions. In addition, we give sufficient conditions under which the origin is the unique compact invariant set.     

Rotationally invariant hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the Heisenberg group ℍ n

In this article we study sets in the (2n + 1)-dimensional Heisenberg group ℍ ⁿ which are critical points, under a volume constraint, of the sub-Riemannian perimeter associated to the distribution of horizontal vector fields in ℍ ⁿ .We define a notion of mean curvature for hypersurfaces and we show that the boundary of a stationary set is a constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurface. Our definition coincides with previous ones. Our main result describes which are the CMC hypersurfaces of revolution in ℍ ⁿ .The fact that such a hypersurface is invariant under a compact group of rotations allows us to reduce the CMC partial differential equation to a system of ordinary differential equations. The analysis of the solutions leads us to establish a counterpart in the Heisenberg group of the Delaunay classification of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces of revolution in the Euclidean space. Hence, we classify the rotationally invariant isoperimetric sets in ℍ ⁿ .     

Invariant Subspaces of Collectively Compact Sets of Linear Operators

In this paper, we first give some invariant subspace results for collectively compact sets of operators in connection with the joint spectral radius of these sets. We then prove that any collectively compact set M in algΓ satisfies Berger-Wang formula, where Γ is a complete chain of subspaces of X.      

Global asymptotic stability analysis by the localization method of invariant compact sets

We study the asymptotic stability and the global asymptotic stability of equilibria of autonomous systems of differential equations. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the global asymptotic stability of an equilibrium in terms of invariant compact sets and positively invariant sets. To verify these conditions, we use some results of the localization method for invariant compact sets of autonomous systems. These results are related to finding sets that contain all invariant compact sets of the system (localizing sets) and to the behavior of trajectories of the system with respect to localizing sets. We consider an example of a system whose equilibrium belongs to the critical case.     

Normed algebras of differentiable functions on compact plane sets

We investigate the completeness and completions of the normed algebras (D ⁽¹⁾(X), ‖ · ‖) for perfect, compact plane sets X. In particular, we construct a radially self-absorbing, compact plane set X such that the normed algebra (D ⁽¹⁾(X), ‖ · ‖) is not complete. This solves a question of Bland and Feinstein. We also prove that there are several classes of connected, compact plane sets X for which the completeness of (D ⁽¹⁾(X), ‖ · ‖) is equivalent to the pointwise regularity of X. For example, this is true for all rectifiably connected, polynomially convex, compact plane sets with empty interior, for all star-shaped, compact plane sets, and for all Jordan arcs in ℂ.     

Spectral invariance of smooth crossed products, and rapid decay locally compact groups

We show that all rapid-decay locally compact groups are unimodular and that the set of rapid-decay functions on a locally compact rapidly decaying group forms a dense and spectral invariant Fréchet *-subalgebra of the reduced group C ^*-algebra. In general, the set of rapid-decay functions on a locally compact strongly rapid-decay group with values in a commutative C ^*-algebra forms a dense and spectral invariant Fréchet *-subalgebra of the twisted crossed product C ^*-algebra. The spectral invariance property implies that the K-theories of both algebras are naturally isomorphic under inclusion.This project is supported in part by the National Science Foundation Grant #DMS 92-04005.     

Ned sets on a hyperplane

Under study are the sets in ℝ ⁿ (NED sets) each of which does not affect the conformal capacity of any condenser with connected plates disjoint from this set. These sets are removable singularities of quasiconformal mappings, which explains our interest in them. For compact sets on a hyperplane we obtain a geometric criterion of the NED property; we point out a simple sufficient condition for an NED set in terms of the connected attainability of its points from its complement in the hyperplane. For compact sets on a hypersphere we obtain a criterion for an NED set in terms of the reduced module at a pair of points in its complement. We establish that a compact set on a hypersphere S, removable for the capacity in at least one spherical ring concentric with S and containing S, is an NED set.     

Localization of periodic orbits of the Rössler system under variation of its parameters

The localization problem of compact invariant sets of the Rössler system is considered in this paper. The main interest is attracted to a localization of periodic orbits. We establish a number of algebraic conditions imposed on parameters under which the Rössler system has no compact invariant sets contained in half-spaces z > 0; z < 0 and in some others. We prove that if parameters (a, b, c) of the Rössler system are such that this system has no equilibrium points then it has no periodic orbits as well. In addition, we give localization conditions of compact invariant sets by using linear functions and one quadratic function.     

Localizing sets for invariant compact sets of discrete dynamical systems with perturbation and control

We consider the localization problem for the invariant compact sets of a discrete dynamical system with perturbation and control, that is, the problem of constructing domains in the system state space that contain all invariant compact sets of the system. The problem is solved on the basis of a functional method used earlier in localization problems for time-invariant continuous and discrete systems and also for control systems. The properties of the corresponding localizing sets are described.     

Density of hyperbolicity and tangencies in sectional dissipative regions

In this paper we extend the notion of sectionally dissipative periodic points to arbitrarily compact invariant sets. We show that given a sectionally dissipative and attracting region for a diffeomorphisms f, there is a neighborhood of f and a dense subset of it such that any diffeomorphism g in this dense subset either exhibits a sectional dissipative homoclinic tangency or the part of the limit set of g in this attracting region is a hyperbolic compact set. The proof goes extending some results on dominated splitting obtained for compact surfaces maps.     

On Polynomials Sharing Preimages of Compact Sets, and Related Questions

In this paper we give a solution of the following problem: under what conditions on infinite compact sets and polynomials f ₁, f ₂ do the preimages f ₁⁻¹{K ₁} and f ₂⁻¹{K ₂} coincide. Besides, we investigate some related questions. In particular, we show that polynomials sharing an invariant compact set distinct from a point have equal Julia sets.

Enveloppes polynômiales d'ensembles compacts invariants

We consider the following problem: let V^? be a finite dimensional vector space, and U be a compact group of ?‐linear automorphisms of V^?. The polynomial envelope of a compact set Q ? V^? is defined as where ??(V^?) denotes the space of holomorphic polynomial functions on V^?. The problem is to determine the polynomial envelope of a compact set which is U‐invariant. We solve the problem when U is the isotropy subgroup at the origin of the automorphism group of a bounded symmetric domain of tube type. The case of a domain of type II has been solved by C. Sacré [1992], and, for a domain of type IV, it has been solved by L. Bou Attour [1993]. (© 2004 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Localization of invariant compacta of autonomous systems

A class of problems that may be characterized as localization problems are becoming increasingly popular in qualitative theory of differential equations [1–15]. The specific formulations differ, but geometrically all search for phase space subsets with desired properties, e.g., contain certain solutions of the system of differential equations. Such problems include construction of positive invariant sets that contain certain separatrices of the Lorenz system [1], analysis of asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Lorenz system and determination of sets that contain the Lorenz attractor [2–5, 14], as well as determination of sets containing all periodic trajectories [6–13], separatrices, and other trajectories [10, 11]. Such sets may be naturally called localizing sets and it is obviously interesting to study methods and results that produce exact or nearly exact localizing sets for each phase space structure. In this article we focus on localization of the invariant compact sets in the phase space of a differential equation system, specifically the problem of finding phase space subsets that contain all the invariant compacta of the system. Invariant compact sets are equilibria, periodic trajectories, separatrices, limit cycles, invariant tori, and other sets and their finite unions. These sets and their properties largely determine the phase space structure and the qualitative behavior of solutions of the differential equation system.     

Global random attractors are uniquely determined by attracting deterministic compact sets

It is shown that for continuous dynamical systems an analogue of the Poincaré recurrence theorem holds for Ω-limit sets. A similar result is proved for Ω-limit sets of random dynamical systems (RDS) on Polish spaces. This is used to derive that a random set which attracts every (deterministic) compact set has full measure with respect to every invariant probability measure for theRDS. Then we show that a random attractor coincides with the Ω-limit set of a (nonrandom) compact set with probability arbitrarily close to one, and even almost surely in case the base flow is ergodic. This is used to derive uniqueness of attractors, even in case the base flow is not ergodic. Entrata in Redazione il 10 marzo 1997.
