Spectral Properties of Interval Exchange Maps

 In [7], Nogueira and Rudolph proved that for irreducible permutations not of rotation class almost every (a.e.) interval exchange transformation (i.e.t.) is topological weak mixing. It is conjectured that the claim holds if topological weak mixing is replaced by weak mixing. Here we study the behaviour of eigenfunctions of i.e.t. Our analysis gives alternative proofs of results due to Katok and Stepin [4] and Veech [10]: for certain permutations a.e. i.e.t. is weak mixing and for irreducible permutations a.e. i.e.t. is totally ergodic.

Linear Maps Preserving Invertibility or Related Spectral Properties

We survey some recent results on linear maps on operator algebras that preserve invertibility. We also consider related problems such as the problem of the characterization of linear maps preserving spectrum, various parts of spectrum, spectral radius, quasinilpotents, etc. We present some results on elementary operators and additive operators preserving invertibility or related properties. In particular, we give a negative answer to a problem posed by Gao and Hou on characterizing spectrumpreserving elementary operators. Several open problems are also mentioned.

On C*-Algebras from Interval Maps

Given a unimodal interval map f, we construct partial isometries acting on Hilbert spaces associated to the orbit of each point. Then we prove that such partial isometries give rise to representations of a C*-algebra associated to the subshift encoding the kneading sequence of the critical point. This construction has the advantage of incorporating maps with a non necessarily Markov partition (e.g. Fibonacci unimodal map). If we are indeed in the presence of a finite Markov partition, then we prove that these new representations coincide with the (previously considered by the authors) representations arising from the Cuntz–Krieger algebra of the underlying (finite) transition matrix.     

On Iterated Maps of the Interval with Holes

A kneading theory is generalized to maps of the interval with several discontinuity points and holes. Alternative methods to evaluate topological entropy are introduced and related. Also we study the parametrization of families of maps with holes and the monotonicity properties of the topological entropy.

Statistical Properties of Unimodal Maps

We consider typical analytic unimodal maps which possess a chaotic attractor. Our main result is an explicit combinatorial formula for the exponents of periodic orbits. Since the exponents of periodic orbits form a complete set of smooth invariants, the smooth structure is completely determined by purely topological data (“typical rigidity”), which is quite unexpected in this setting. It implies in particular that the lamination structure of spaces of analytic unimodal maps (obtained by the partition into topological conjugacy classes, see [ALM]) is not transversely absolutely continuous. As an intermediate step in the proof of the formula, we show that the distribution of the critical orbit is described by the physical measure supported in the chaotic attractor.     

Additive Maps Preserving Nilpotent Operators or Spectral Radius

Let X be a （real or complex） Banach space with dimension greater than 2 and let B0（X） be the subspace of B（X） spanned by all nilpotent operators on X. We get a complete classification of surjective additive maps Ф on B0（X） which preserve nilpotent operators in both directions. In particular, if X is infinite-dimensional, we prove that Ф has the form either Ф（T） = cATA^-1 or Ф（T） = cAT＇A^-1, where A is an invertible bounded linear or conjugate linear operator, c is a scalar, T＇ denotes the adjoint of T. As an application of these results, we show that every additive surjective map on B（X） preserving spectral radius has a similar form to the above with ｜c｜ = 1.     

Linear Maps Preserving Operators of Local Spectral Radius Zero

Let X be a complex Banach space and let B(X){\mathcal{B}(X)} be the space of all bounded linear operators on X. For x ? X{x \in X} and T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X)}, let r_T(x) = limsup_{n ? ￥} || Tⁿx|| ^1/n{r_{T}(x) =\limsup_{n \rightarrow \infty} \| T^{n}x\| ^{1/n}} denote the local spectral radius of T at x. We prove that if j: B(X) ? B(X){\varphi : \mathcal{B}(X) \rightarrow \mathcal{B}(X)} is linear and surjective such that for every x ? X{x \in X} we have r _T (x) = 0 if and only if r_j(T)(x) = 0{r_{\varphi(T)}(x) = 0}, there exists then a nonzero complex number c such that j(T) = cT{\varphi(T) = cT} for all T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X) }. We also prove that if Y is a complex Banach space and j:B(X) ? B(Y){\varphi :\mathcal{B}(X) \rightarrow \mathcal{B}(Y)} is linear and invertible for which there exists B ? B(Y, X){B \in \mathcal{B}(Y, X)} such that for y ? Y{y \in Y} we have r _T (By) = 0 if and only if r_{j( T)} (y)=0{ r_{\varphi ( T) }(y)=0}, then B is invertible and there exists a nonzero complex number c such that j(T) = cB^-1TB{\varphi(T) =cB^{-1}TB} for all T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X)}.     

Enumerative Properties of Rooted Circuit Maps

In 1966, Barnette introduced a set of graphs, called circuit graphs, which are obtained from 3-connected planar graphs by deleting a vertex. Circuit graphs and 3-connected planar graphs share many interesting properties which are not satisfied by general 2-connected planar graphs. Circuit graphs have nice closure properties which make them easier to deal with than 3-connected planar graphs for studying some graph-theoretic properties. In this paper, we study some enumerative properties of circuit graphs. For enumeration purpose, we define rooted circuit maps and compare the number of rooted circuit maps with those of rooted 2-connected planar maps and rooted 3-connected planar maps.

An Exceptional Set in the Ergodic Theory of Markov Maps of the Interval

It is known that a Markov map T of the unit interval preservesa measure µ, say, equivalent to Lebesgue measure, andthat almost every point of the interval has a forward orbitunder T that is uniformly distributed with respect to µ.In the opposite direction the main result of this paper statesthat there is a set of points having Hausdorff dimension 1 whoseforward orbits are in a certain sense very far from being sodistributed. 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification: 58F08,28A80.
