General hyperbolicity conditions for set-valued mappings

A definition of hyperbolicity for dynamical systems generated by set-valued mappings of general form in terms of local selectors is given. It is shown that a system hyperbolic in this sense has the shadowing and inverse shadowing properties. It is also shown that the hyperbolicity property holds true for a certain class of set-valued mappings where images of points are convex polytopes. Bibliography: 13 titles.     

Generalizations of the notion of hyperbolicity

We describe several generalizations of the classical notion of hyperbolicity for a sequence of linear mappings. It is shown that the following three statements are equivalent: (i) the corresponding linear non-homogeneous system has a bounded solution for any bounded nonhomogeneity, (ii) the sequence has a (C, λ)-structure, (iii) the sequence is piecewise hyperbolic with long enough intervals of hyperbolicity.     

On growth and covering theorems of quasi-convex mappings in the unit ball of a complex banach space

A class of biholomorphic mappings named “quasi-convex mapping” is introduced in the unit ball of a complex Banach space. It is proved that this class of mappings is a proper subset of the class of starlike mappings and contains the class of convex mappings properly, and it has the same growth and covering theorems as the convex mappings. Furthermore, when the Banach space is confined to ℂⁿ, the “quasi-convex mapping” is exactly the “quasi-convex mapping of type A” introduced by K. A. Roper and T. J. Suffridge.     

Gromov Hyperbolicity of Riemann Surfaces

We study the hyperbolicity in the Gromov sense of Riemann surfaces. We deduce the hyperbolicity of a surface from the hyperbolicity of its ＂building block components＂. We also prove the equivalence between the hyperbolicity of a Riemann surface and the hyperbolicity of some graph associated with it. These results clarify how the decomposition of a Riemann surface into Y-pieces and funnels affects the hyperbolicity of the surface. The results simplify the topology of the surface and allow us to obtain global results from local information.     

Hyperbolicity criterion for periodic solutions of functional-differential equations with several delays

In this paper, a hyperbolicity criterion for periodic solutions of nonlinear functional-differential equations is constructed in terms of zeros of the characteristic function. In the earlier papers in this area, necessary and sufficient conditions were different from each other. Moreover, it was assumed that if the period of the investigated solution is irrational, then that solution admits a rational approximation. In this paper, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions of the hyperbolicity. It is proved (and the proof is constructive) that a rational approximation exists for any irrational period. All the results are obtained for the case of several rational delays. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika. Fundamental’nye Napravleniya (Contemporary Mathematics.

On Metric and Calmness Qualification Conditions in Subdifferential Calculus

The paper contains two groups of results. The first are criteria for calmness/subregularity for set-valued mappings between finite-dimensional spaces. We give a new sufficient condition whose subregularity part has the same form as the coderivative criterion for “full” metric regularity but involves a different type of coderivative which is introduced in the paper. We also show that the condition is necessary for mappings with convex graphs. The second group of results deals with the basic calculus rules of nonsmooth subdifferential calculus. For each of the rules we state two qualification conditions: one in terms of calmness/subregularity of certain set-valued mappings and the other as a metric estimate (not necessarily directly associated with aforementioned calmness/subregularity property). The conditions are shown to be weaker than the standard Mordukhovich–Rockafellar subdifferential qualification condition; in particular they cover the cases of convex polyhedral set-valued mappings and, more generally, mappings with semi-linear graphs. Relative strength of the conditions is thoroughly analyzed. We also show, for each of the calculus rules, that the standard qualification conditions are equivalent to “full” metric regularity of precisely the same mappings that are involved in the subregularity version of our calmness/subregularity condition.

Coupled coincidence point theorems in ordered metric spaces

In this paper we extend the coupled contraction mapping theorem proved in partially ordered metric spaces by Gnana Bhaskar and Lakshmikantham (Nonlinear Anal. TMA 65:1379–1393, 2006) to a coupled coincidence point result for a pair of compatible mappings. A control function has been used in our theorem. The mappings are assumed to satisfy a weak contractive inequality. Our theorem improves the results of Harjani et al. (Nonlinear Anal. TMA 74:1749–1760, 2011). The result we have established is illustrated with an example which also shows that the improvement is actual.     

On the theory of mappings with finite area distortion

It is shown that mappings in ℝⁿ with finite distortion of area in all dimensions 1 ≤ k ≤ n − 1 satisfy certain modulus inequalities in terms of inner and outer dilatations of the mappings; in particular, generalizations of the well-known Poletskii inequality for quasiregular mappings are proved. The theory developed is applicable, for example, to the class of finitely bi-Lipschitz mappings, which is a natural generalization of the bi-Lipschitz mappings, as well as isometries and quasi-isometries in ℝⁿ.     

Complete Quasiconvex Mappings in Polydisc

In this paper, a class of biholomorphic mappings called complete quasiconvex mappings is introduced and studied in bounded convex Reinhardt domains of ℂ ⁿ . Through a detailed analysis of the analytic characterization for this class of mappings, it is shown that this class of mappings contains the convex mappings and is also a subset of the class of starlike mappings. In the special case of the polydisc, a decomposition theorem is established for the complete quasiconvex mappings, which in turn is used to derive an improved sufficient condition for the convex mappings.

Critical sets and unimodal mappings of the square

A lower estimate for the number of different invariant subsets of the set of nonwandering points for a class of unimodal mappings is given. Sufficient conditions for such a mapping to have periodic points of arbitrarily large period are described. The machinery of the appearance of such points may be of very different nature. The existence of mappings with trajectory behavior chaotic in the Li-York sense is established. Conditions for the domain of these trajectories to be arbitrary small are given. Therefore, such trajectories cannot be found by numerical methods. Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 58, No. 5, pp. 669–680, November, 1995.     

Gromov hyperbolicity through decomposition of metrics spaces II

In this article we study the hyperbolicity in the Gromov sense of metric spaces. We deduce the hyperbolicity of a space from the hyperbolicity of its “building block components,” which can be joined following an arbitrary scheme. These results are especially valuable since they simplify notably the topology and allow to obtain global results from local information. Some interesting theorems about the role of punctures and funnels on the hyperbolicity of Riemann surfaces can be deduced from the conclusions of this article.     

Uniformly Separated Sets and Gromov Hyperbolicity of Domains with the Quasihyperbolic Metric

In this article we prove comparative results on the Gromov hyperbolicity of plane domains equipped with the quasihyperbolic metric. By a comparative result we mean one which assumes hyperbolicity in one domain and obtains it in a different domain somehow related to the original one. We derive a characterization (simple to check in practical cases) of the Gromov hyperbolicity of a plane domain Ω* obtained by deleting from the original domain Ω any uniformly separated union of compact sets. We present as well a result about stability of hyperbolicity.     

Reflection Ideals and mappings between generic submanifolds in complex space

Results on finite determination and convergence of formal mappings between smooth generic submanifolds in ℂ ^N are established in this article. The finite determination result gibes sufficient conditions to guarantee that a formal map is uniquely determined by its jet, of a preassigned order, at a point. Convergence of formal mappings for real-analytic generic submanifolds under appropriate assumptions is proved, and natural geometric conditions are given to assure that if two germs of such submanifolds are formally equivalent, then, they are necessarily biholomorphically equivalent. It is also shown that if two real-algebraic hypersurfaces in ℂ ^N are biholomorphically equivalent, then, they are algebraically equivalent. All the results are first proved in the more general context of “reflection ideals” associated to formal mappings between formal as well as real-analytic and real-algebraic manifolds.     

On quasi-convex mappings of order α in the unit ball of a complex Banach space

In this paper, a class of biholomorphic mappings named quasi-convex mapping of order α in the unit ball of a complex Banach space is introduced. When the Banach space is confined to ℂ ⁿ , we obtain the relation between this class of mappings and the convex mappings. Furthermore, the growth and covering theorems of this class of mappings are given on the unit ball of a complex Banach space X. Finally, we get the second order terms coefficient estimations of the homogeneous expansion of quasi-convex mapping of order α defined on the polydisc in ℂ ⁿ and on the unit ball in a complex Banach space, respectively.

A Remark on Finite-Time Hyperbolicity

We discuss two notions of hyperbolicity for finite–time linear differential equations. The first notion (D–hyperbolicity) is based on the dynamic (or EPH) partition, the second (M–hyperbolicity) is motivated by exponential dichotomies. We study conditions under which D–hyperbolicity implies M–hyperbolicity. (© 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

An extended Gauss–Seidel method for a class of multi-valued complementarity problems

The complementarity problem is one of the basic topics in nonlinear analysis; however, the methods for solving complementarity problems are usually developed for problems with single-valued mappings. In this paper we examine a class of complementarity problems with multi-valued mappings and propose an extension of the Gauss–Seidel algorithm for finding its solution. Its convergence is proved under off-diagonal antitonicity assumptions. Applications to Walrasian type equilibrium problems and to nonlinear input–output problems are also given.
