Correlation Decay and Recurrence Asymptotics for Some Robust Nonuniformly Hyperbolic Maps

We study a robust class of multidimensional non-uniformly hyperbolic transformations considered by Oliveira and Viana (Ergod. Theory Dyn. Syst. 28:501–533, 2008). For an open class of Hölder continuous potentials with small variation we show that the unique equilibrium state has exponential decay of correlations and that the distribution of hitting times is asymptotically exponential. Furthermore, using that the equilibrium states satisfy a weak Gibbs property we also prove log-normal fluctuations of the return times around their average.     

A Nonlinear Transfer Operator Theorem

In recent papers, Kenyon et al. (Ergod Theory Dyn Syst 32:1567–1584 2012), and Fan et al. (C R Math Acad Sci Paris 349:961–964 2011, Adv Math 295:271–333 2016) introduced a form of non-linear thermodynamic formalism based on solutions to a non-linear equation using matrices. In this note we consider the more general setting of Hölder continuous functions.     

The Quest for the Ultimate Anisotropic Banach Space

We present a new scale \(\mathcal {U}^{t,s}_p\) (\(s<-t<0\) and \(1\le p <\infty \)) of anisotropic Banach spaces, defined via Paley–Littlewood, on which the transfer operator \(\mathcal {L}_g \varphi = (g \cdot \varphi ) \circ T^{-1}\) associated to a hyperbolic dynamical system T has good spectral properties. When \(p=1\) and t is an integer, the spaces are analogous to the “geometric” spaces \(\mathcal {B}^{t,|s+t|}\) considered by Gouëzel and Liverani (Ergod Theory Dyn Syst 26:189–217, 2006). When \(p>1\) and \(-1+1/p<s<-t<0<t<1/p\), the spaces are somewhat analogous to the geometric spaces considered by Demers and Liverani (Trans Am Math Soc 360:4777–4814, 2008). In addition, just like for the “microlocal” spaces defined by Baladi and Tsujii (Ann Inst Fourier 57:127–154, 2007) (or Faure–Roy–Sjöstrand in Open Math J 1:35–81, 2008), the transfer operator acting on \(\mathcal {U}^{t,s}_p\) can be decomposed into \(\mathcal {L}_{g,b}+\mathcal {L}_{g,c}\), where \(\mathcal {L}_{g,b}\) has a controlled norm while a suitable power of \(\mathcal {L}_{g,c}\) is nuclear. This “nuclear power decomposition” enhances the Lasota–Yorke bounds and makes the spaces \(\mathcal {U}^{t,s}_p\) amenable to the kneading approach of Milnor–Thurson (Dynamical Systems (Maryland 1986–1987), Springer, Berlin, 1988) (as revisited by Baladi–Ruelle, Baladi in Dynamical Zeta Functions and Dynamical Determinants for Hyperbolic Maps, Monograph, 2016; Baladi and Ruelle in Ergod Theory Dyn Syst 14:621–632, 1994; Baladi and Ruelle in Invent Math 123:553–574, 1996) to study dynamical determinants and zeta functions.     

Computing Topological Entropy in a Space of Quartic Polynomials

This paper adds a computational approach to a previous theoretical result illustrating how the complexity of a simple dynamical system evolves under deformations. The algorithm targets topological entropy in the 2-dimensional family P ^Q of compositions of two logistic maps. Estimation of the topological entropy is made possible by the correspondence between P ^Q and a subfamily of sawtooth maps P ^T , and is based on the well-known fact that the kneading-data of a map determines its entropy. A complex search for kneading-data in P ^T turns out to be computationally fast and reliable, delivering good entropy estimates. Finally, the algorithm is used to produce a picture of the entropy level-sets in P ^Q , as illustration to theoretical results such as Hu (Ph.D. thesis, CUNY, 1995) and Radulescu (Discrete Cont. Dyn. Syst. 19(1):139–175, 2007).     

Relaxation length of a polymer chain in a quenched disordered medium

Using Monte Carlo simulations, we study the relaxation and short-time diffusion of polymer chains in two-dimensional periodic arrays of obstacles with random point defects. The displacement of the center of mass follows the anomalous scaling law r(c.m.)(t)(2)=4D(*)t(beta), with beta<1, for times t相似文献   

Slow Rates of Mixing for Dynamical Systems with Hyperbolic Structures

We consider invertible discrete-time dynamical systems having a hyperbolic product structure in some region of the phase space with infinitely many branches and variable return time. We show that the decay of correlations of the SRB measure associated to that hyperbolic structure is related to the tail of the recurrence times. We also give sufficient conditions for the validity of the Central Limit Theorem. This extends previous results by Young in (Ann. Math. 147: 585–650, [1998]; Israel J. Math. 110: 153–188, [1999]).

High temperature limit of the order parameter correlation functions in the quantum Ising model

In this paper we use the exact results for the anisotropic two-dimensional Ising model obtained by Bugrii and Lisovyy [A.I. Bugrii, O.O. Lisovyy, Theor. Math. Phys. 140 (2004) 987] to derive the expressions for dynamical correlation functions for the quantum Ising model in one dimension at high temperatures.     

LAGRANGIANS FOR DISSIPATIVE NONLINEAR OSCILLATORS: THE METHOD OF JACOBI LAST MULTIPLIER

We present a method devised by Jacobi to derive Lagrangians of any second-order differential equation: it consists in finding a Jacobi Last Multiplier. We illustrate the easiness and the power of Jacobi's method by applying it to several equations, including a class of equations recently studied by Musielak with his own method [Z. E. Musielak, Standard and non-standard Lagrangians for dissipative dynamical systems with variable coefficients J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 41 (2008) 055205], and in particular a Liènard type nonlinear oscillator and a second-order Riccati equation. Also, we derive more than one Lagrangian for each equation.     

Quantum Information Entropies on Hyperbolic Single Potential Wells

In this work, we study the quantum information entropies for two different types of hyperbolic single potential wells. We first study the behaviors of the moving particle subject to two different hyperbolic potential wells through focusing on their wave functions. The shapes of these hyperbolic potentials are similar, but we notice that their momentum entropy densities change along with the width of each potential and the magnitude of position entropy density decreases when the momentum entropy magnitude increases. On the other hand, we illustrate the behaviors of their position and momentum entropy densities. Finally, we show the variation of position and momentum entropies Sx and Sp with the change of the potential well depth u and verify that their sum still satisfies the BBM inequality relation.     

Generalized fractional derivatives generated by a class of local proportional derivatives

Recently, Anderson and Ulness [Adv. Dyn. Syst. Appl. 10, 109 (2015)] utilized the concept of the proportional derivative controller to modify the conformable derivatives. In parallel to Anderson’s work, Caputo and Fabrizio [Progr. Fract. Differ. Appl. 1, 73 (2015)] introduced a fractional derivative with exponential kernel whose corresponding fractional integral does not have a semi-group property. Inspired by the above works and based on a special case of the proportional-derivative, we generate Caputo and Riemann-Liouville generalized proportional fractional derivatives involving exponential functions in their kernels. The advantage of the newly defined derivatives which makes them distinctive is that their corresponding proportional fractional integrals possess a semi-group property and they provide undeviating generalization to the existing Caputo and Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives and integrals. The Laplace transform of the generalized proportional fractional derivatives and integrals are calculated and used to solve Cauchy linear fractional type problems.     

Kinetic Models with Randomly Perturbed Binary Collisions

We introduce a class of Kac-like kinetic equations on the real line, with general random collisional rules which, in some special cases, identify models for granular gases with a background heat bath (Carrillo et al. in Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. 24(1):59–81, 2009), and models for wealth redistribution in an agent-based market (Bisi et al. in Commun. Math. Sci. 7:901–916, 2009). Conditions on these collisional rules which guarantee both the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium profiles and their main properties are found. The characterization of these stationary states is of independent interest, since we show that they are stationary solutions of different evolution problems, both in the kinetic theory of rarefied gases (Cercignani et al. in J. Stat. Phys. 105:337–352, 2001; Villani in J. Stat. Phys. 124:781–822, 2006) and in the econophysical context (Bisi et al. in Commun. Math. Sci. 7:901–916, 2009).     

Hyperbolification of dynamical systems: The case of continuous-time systems

We present a new method to generate chaotic hyperbolic systems. The method is based on the knowledge of a chaotic hyperbolic system and the use of a synchronization technique. This procedure is called hyperbolification of dynamical systems. The aim of this process is to create or enhance the hyperbolicity of a dynamical system. In other words, hyperbolification of dynamical systems produces chaotic hyperbolic (structurally stable) behaviors in a system that would not otherwise be hyperbolic. The method of hyperbolification can be outlined as follows. We consider a known n-dimensional hyperbolic chaotic system as a drive system and another n-dimensional system as the response system plus a feedback control function to be determined in accordance with a specific synchronization criterion. We then consider the error system and apply a synchronization method, and find sufficient conditions for the errors to converge to zero and hence the synchronization between the two systems to be established. This means that we construct a 2n-dimensional continuous-time system that displays a robust hyperbolic chaotic attractor. An illustrative example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed hyperbolification method.

Quantum transmission processes and their entropies

In classical information theory, one of the most important theorems are the coding theorems, which were discussed by calculating the mean entropy and the mean mutual entropy defined by the classical dynamical entropy (Kolmogorov-Sinai). The quantum dynamical entropy was first studied by Emch [13] and Connes-Stormer [11]. After that, several approaches for introducing the quantum dynamical entropy are done [10, 3, 8, 39, 15, 44, 9, 27, 28, 2, 19, 45]. The efficiency of information transmission for the quantum processes is investigated by using the von Neumann entropy [22] and the Ohya mutual entropy [24]. These entropies were extended to S- mixing entropy by Ohya [26, 27] in general quantum systems. The mean entropy and the mean mutual entropy for the quantum dynamical systems were introduced based on the S- mixing entropy. In this paper, we discuss the efficiency of information transmission to calculate the mean mutual entropy with respect to the modulated initial states and the connected channel for the quantum dynamical systems.     

Sequential Gibbs Measures and Factor Maps

We define the notion of sequential Gibbs measures, inspired by on the classical notion of Gibbs measures and recent examples from the study of non-uniform hyperbolic dynamics. Extending previous results of Kempton and Pollicott (Factors of Gibbs measures for full shifts, entropy of hidden Markov processes and connections to dynamical systems, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2011) and Chazottes and Ugalde (On the preservation of Gibbsianness under symbol amalgamation, entropy of hidden Markov processes and connections to dynamical systems, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2011), we show that the images of one block factor maps of a sequential Gibbs measure are also a sequential Gibbs measure, with the same sequence of Gibbs times. We obtain some estimates on the regularity of the potential of the image measure at almost every point.     

Nonlinear electric field effects at a continuous mott-hubbard transition

We characterize the non-Ohmic portion of the conductivity at temperatures T<1 K in the highly correlated transition metal chalcogenide Ni(S,Se)(2). Pressure tuning of the T = 0 metal-insulator transition reveals the influence of the quantum critical point and permits a direct determination of the dynamical critical exponent z = 2.7(+0.3)(-0.4). Within the framework of finite temperature scaling, we find that the spatial correlation length exponent nu and the conductivity exponent &mgr; differ.     

Stable Sets and \epsilon-Stable Sets in Positive-Entropy Systems

In this paper, the chaoticity appearing in the stable and unstable sets of a dynamical system with positive entropy is investigated. It is shown that in any positive-entropy system, there is a measure-theoretically “rather big” set such that the closure of the stable or unstable set of any point from the set contains a weak mixing set. Moreover, the Bowen entropy of these weak mixing sets are also estimated. At the same time, it is proved that the topological entropy of any topological system can be calculated in terms of the dispersion of the pre-images of -stable sets, which answers an open question posed by D. Fiebig, U.R. Fiebig and Z.H. Nitecki (Ergod. Th & Dynam. Sys. 23, 1785-1806 (2003)). The author is supported by NSFC, 973 project and FANEDD (200520).     

Universal features of hydrodynamic Lyapunov modes in extended systems with continuous symmetries

Numerical and analytical evidence is presented to show that hydrodynamic Lyapunov modes (HLMs) do exist in lattices of coupled Hamiltonian and dissipative maps. More importantly, we find that HLMs in these two classes of systems are different with respect to their spatial structure and their dynamical behavior. To be concrete, the corresponding dispersion relations of Lyapunov exponent versus wave number are characterized by lambda approximately k and lambda approximately k2, respectively. The HLMs in Hamiltonian systems are propagating, whereas those of dissipative systems show only diffusive motion. Extensive numerical simulations of various systems confirm that the existence of HLMs is a very general feature of extended dynamical systems with continuous symmetries and that the above-mentioned differences between the two classes of systems are universal in large extent.     

Influence of Different Connectivity Topologies in Small World Networks Modeling Earthquakes

We introduce the Olami-Feder-Christensen (OFC) model on a square lattice with some “rewired“ longrange connections having the properties of small world networks. We find that our model displays the power-law behavior, and connectivity topologies are very important to model‘s avalanche dynamical behaviors. Our model has some behaviors different from the OFC model on a small world network with “added“ long-range connections in our previous work [LIN Min, ZHAO Xiao-Wei, and CHEN Tian-Lun, Commun. Theor. Phys. (Beijing, China) 41 (2004) 557.].
