Thick attractors of step skew products

A diffeomorphism is said to have a thick attractor provided that its Milnor attractor has positive but not full Lebesgue measure. We prove that there exists an open set in the space of boundary preserving step skew products with a fiber [0,1], such that any map in this set has a thick attractor.     

Diffeomorphism classification of finite group actions on disks

In this paper we discuss the diffeomorphism classification of finite group actions on disks. We answer the question when an action on a space M can be extended to an action on a disk such that the action is free away from M. Let the singular set consist of the points with nontrivial isotropy group. We show (under some dimension assumptions) that disks with diffeomorphic neighborhoods of the singular set can be imbedded into each other. As a consequence we find a classification of group actions on disks in terms of the neighborhood of the singular set and an element in the Whitehead group of G.     

Strange attractors in higher dimensions

We consider generic one-parameter families of diffeomorphisms on a manifold of arbitrary dimension, unfolding a homoclinic tangency associated to a sectionally dissipative saddle point (the product of any pair of eigenvalues has norm less than 1). We prove that such families exhibit strange attractors in a persistent way: for a positive Lebesgue measure set of parameter values. In the two-dimensional case this had been obtained in a joint work with L. Mora, based on and extending the results of Benedicks-Carleson on the quadratic family in the plane.     

Breaking hyperbolicity for smooth symplectic toral diffeomorphisms

We study a smooth symplectic 2-parameter unfolding of an almost hyperbolic diffeomorphism on two-dimensional torus. This diffeomorphism has a fixed point of the type of the degenerate saddle. In the parameter plane there is a bifurcation curve corresponding to the transition from the degenerate saddle into a saddle and parabolic fixed point, separatrices of these latter points form a channel on the torus. We prove that a saddle period-2 point exists for all parameter values close to the co-dimension two point whose separatrices intersect transversely the boundary curves of the channel that implies the existence of a quadratic homoclinic tangency for this period-2 point which occurs along a sequence of parameter values accumulating at the co-dimension 2 point. This leads to the break of stable/unstable foliations existing for almost hyperbolic diffeomorphism. Using the results of Franks [1] on π ₁-diffeomorphisms, we discuss the possibility to get an invariant Cantor set of a positive measure being non-uniformly hyperbolic.     

CR singular images of generic submanifolds under holomorphic maps

The purpose of this paper is to organize some results on the local geometry of CR singular real-analytic manifolds that are images of CR manifolds via a CR map that is a diffeomorphism onto its image. We find a necessary (sufficient in dimension 2) condition for the diffeomorphism to extend to a finite holomorphic map. The multiplicity of this map is a biholomorphic invariant that is precisely the Moser invariant of the image, when it is a Bishop surface with vanishing Bishop invariant. In higher dimensions, we study Levi-flat CR singular images and we prove that the set of CR singular points must be large, and in the case of codimension 2, necessarily Levi-flat or complex. We also show that there exist real-analytic CR functions on such images that satisfy the tangential CR conditions at the singular points, yet fail to extend to holomorphic functions in a neighborhood. We provide many examples to illustrate the phenomena that arise.     

Quasiperiodicity,strange non-chaotic and chaotic attractors in a forced two degrees-of-freedom system

Strange non-chaotic, strange chaotic and quasiperiodic attractors are demonstrated to exist for a system of two non-linear coupled oscillators with almost periodic excitations. For same parameter values a transition from a strange non-chaotic to a quasiperiodic attractor is presented, whereas for other parameter values a shift from the strange chaotic attractor to a quasiperiodic one is found.     

Micro-chaos in digital control

Summary In this paper we analyze a model for the effect of digital control on one-dimensional, linearly unstable dynamical systems. Our goal is to explain the existence of small, irregular oscillations that are frequently observed near the desired equilibrium. We derive a one-dimensional map that captures exactly the dynamics of the continuous system. Using thismicro-chaos map, we prove the existence of a hyperbolic strange attractor for a large set of parameter values. We also construct an “instability chart” on the parameter plane to describe how the size and structure of the chaotic attractor changes as the parameters are varied. The applications of our results include the stick-and-slip motion of machine tools and other mechanical problems with locally negative dissipation.     

Diffeomorphisms with intermingled attracting basins

We construct a diffeomorphism F of a manifold with boundary into itself with the following property. The attractor of F has two components, and the attracting basins of these components are dense in the phase space and have positive measure. We prove that the class of examples constructed in the paper has codimension infinity in the space of all diffeomorphisms of the same manifold.     

Robust exponential attractors for Cahn‐Hilliard type equations with singular potentials

Our aim in this article is to study the long time behaviour of a family of singularly perturbed Cahn‐Hilliard equations with singular (and, in particular, logarithmic) potentials. In particular, we are able to construct a continuous family of exponential attractors (as the perturbation parameter goes to 0). Furthermore, using these exponential attractors, we are able to prove the existence of the finite dimensional global attractor which attracts the bounded sets of initial data for all the possible values of the spatial average of the order parameter, hence improving previous results which required strong restrictions on the size of the spatial domain and to work on spaces on which the average of the order parameter is prescribed. Finally, we are able, in one and two space dimensions, to separate the solutions from the singular values of the potential, which allows us to reduce the problem to one with a regular potential. Unfortunately, for the unperturbed problem in three space dimensions, we need additional assumptions on the potential, which prevents us from proving such a result for logarithmic potentials.

Strange attractors in saddle-node cycles: prevalence and globality

 We consider parametrized families of diffeomorphisms bifurcating through the creation of critical saddle-node cycles. We show that they always exhibit Hénon-like strange attractors for a set of parameter values with positive Lebesgue density at the bifurcation value. In open classes of such families the strange attractors are of global type: their basins contain an a priori defined neighbourhood of the cycle. Furthermore, the bifurcation parameter may also be a point of positive density of hyperbolic dynamics. Oblatum VIII-1993 & 23-II-1995     

Multidimensional bony attractors

In this paper we study attractors of skew products, for which the following dichotomy is ascertained. These attractors either are not asymptotically stable or possess the following two surprising properties. The intersection of the attractor with some invariant submanifold does not coincide with the attractor of the restriction of the skew product to this submanifold but contains this restriction as a proper subset. Moreover, this intersection is thick on the submanifold, that is, both the intersection and its complement have positive relative measure. Such an intersection is called a bone, and the attractor itself is said to be bony. These attractors are studied in the space of skew products. They have the important property that, on some open subset of the space of skew products, the set of maps with such attractors is, in a certain sense, prevalent, i.e., ??big.?? It seems plausible that attractors with such properties also form a prevalent subset in an open subset of the space of diffeomorphisms.     

On anisotropic caginalp phase-field type models with singular nonlinear terms

Our aim in this paper is to study the well-posedness and the existence of the global attractor of anisotropic Caginalp phase-field type models with singular nonlinear terms. The main difficulty is to prove, in one and two space dimensions, that the order parameter remains in the physically relevant range and this is achieved by deriving proper a priori estimates.     

A periodically forced,piecewise linear system,Part II: The fragmentation mechanism of strange attractors and grazing

In the first part of this work, the local singularity of non-smooth dynamical systems was discussed and the criteria for the grazing bifurcation were presented mathematically. In this part, the fragmentation mechanism of strange attractors in non-smooth dynamical systems is investigated. The periodic motion transition is completed through grazing. The concepts for the initial and final grazing, switching manifolds are introduced for six basic mappings. The fragmentation of strange attractors in non-smooth dynamical systems is described mathematically. The fragmentation mechanism of the strange attractor for such a non-smooth dynamical system is qualitatively discussed. Such a fragmentation of the strange attractor is illustrated numerically. The criteria and topological structures for the fragmentation of the strange attractor need to be further developed as in hyperbolic strange attractors. The fragmentation of the strange attractors extensively exists in non-smooth dynamical systems, which will help us better understand chaotic motions in non-smooth dynamical systems.     

The liapunov dimension of strange attractors

Many papers have been published recently on studies of dynamical processes in which the attracting sets appear quite strange. In this paper the question of estimating the dimension of the attractor is addressed. While more general conjectures are made here, particular attention is paid to the idea that if the Jacobian determinant of a map is greater than one and a ball is mapped into itself, then generically, the attractor will have positive two-dimensional measure, and most of this paper is devoted to presenting cases with such Jacobians for which the attractors are proved to have non-empty interior.     

The basic attractor and the remainder of homo- and heteroclinic orbits

In this paper, we discuss some issues in the dynamical systems theory of dissipative nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), on a bounded domain. A decomposition theorem says that attractors of PDEs can be decomposed into a basic attractor (a core) that attracts sets of positive measure, it attracts a prevalent set in phase space, and a remainder whose basin, up to sets that are attracted to the basic attractor, is shy, or of zero (infinite-dimensional) measure. If the basic attractor is low-dimensional and the remainder high-dimensional, then the dynamics can still be analyzed up to transients that are exponentially decaying toward the attractor in time. We focus on (ODE) examples of homo- and heteroclinic connections and show that generically these connections lie in the remainder but there exist exceptional cases where they lie in the basic attractor.     

Pullback attractors for a class of extremal solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes system

In this paper we construct a dynamical process (in general, multivalued) generated by the set of solutions of an optimal control problem for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes system. We prove the existence of a pullback attractor for such multivalued process. Also, we establish the existence of a uniform global attractor containing the pullback attractor. Moreover, under the unproved assumption that strong globally defined solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes system exist, which guaranties the existence of a global attractor for the corresponding multivalued semiflow, we show that the pullback attractor of the process coincides with the global attractor of the semiflow.     

High dimension diffeomorphisms exhibiting infinitely many strange attractors

In this work we show, on a manifold of any dimension, that arbitrarily near any smooth diffeomorphism with a homoclinic tangency associated to a sectionally dissipative fixed or periodic point (i.e. the product of any pair of eigenvalues has norm less than 1), there exists a diffeomorphism exhibiting infinitely many Hénon-like strange attractors. In the two-dimensional case this has been proved in [E. Colli, Infinitely many coexisting strange attractors, Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Anal. Non Linéaire 15 (1998) 539–579]. We also show that a parametric version of this result is true.

Invariant measures for parabolic IFS with overlaps and random continued fractions

We study parabolic iterated function systems (IFS) with overlaps on the real line. An ergodic shift-invariant measure with positive entropy on the symbolic space induces an invariant measure on the limit set of the IFS. The Hausdorff dimension of this measure equals the ratio of entropy over Lyapunov exponent if the IFS has no ``overlaps.' We focus on the overlapping case and consider parameterized families of IFS, satisfying a transversality condition. Our main result is that the invariant measure is absolutely continuous for a.e. parameter such that the entropy is greater than the Lyapunov exponent. If the entropy does not exceed the Lyapunov exponent, then their ratio gives the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant measure for a.e. parameter value, and moreover, the local dimension of the exceptional set of parameters can be estimated. These results are applied to a family of random continued fractions studied by R. Lyons. He proved singularity above a certain threshold; we show that this threshold is sharp and establish absolute continuity for a.e. parameter in some interval below the threshold.
