Structural properties of universal minimal dynamical systems for discrete semigroups

We show that for a discrete semigroup there exists a uniquely determined complete Boolean algebra - the algebra of clopen subsets of . is the phase space of the universal minimal dynamical system for and it is an extremally disconnected compact Hausdorff space. We deal with this connection of semigroups and complete Boolean algebras focusing on structural properties of these algebras. We show that is either atomic or atomless; that is weakly homogenous provided has a minimal left ideal; and that for countable semigroups is semi-Cohen. We also present a class of what we call group-like semigroups that includes commutative semigroups, inverse semigroups, and right groups. The group reflection of a group-like semigroup can be constructed via universal minimal dynamical system for and, moreover, and are the same.

     

Traces of semigroups associated with interacting particle systems

Witten Laplacians associated with interacting particle systems on infinite coverings of compact manifolds are considered. The probabilistic representations of the corresponding heat kernels are given. Von Neumann traces of the corresponding semigroups are computed.     

Tent spaces associated with semigroups of operators

We study tent spaces on general measure spaces (Ω,μ). We assume that there exists a semigroup of positive operators on Lp(Ω,μ) satisfying a monotone property but do not assume any geometric/metric structure on Ω. The semigroup plays the same role as integrals on cones and cubes in Euclidean spaces. We then study BMO spaces on general measure spaces and get an analogue of Fefferman's H¹-BMO duality theory. We also get a H¹-BMO duality inequality without assuming the monotone property. All the results are proved in a more general setting, namely for noncommutative Lp spaces.     

Level shift operators for open quantum systems

Level shift operators describe the second-order displacement of eigenvalues under perturbation. They play a central role in resonance theory and ergodic theory of open quantum systems at positive temperatures. We exhibit intrinsic properties of level shift operators, properties which stem from the structure of open quantum systems at positive temperatures and which are common to all such systems. They determine the geometry of resonances bifurcating from eigenvalues of positive temperature Hamiltonians and they relate the Gibbs state, the kernel of level shift operators, and zero energy resonances. We show that degeneracy of energy levels of the small part of the open quantum system causes the Fermi Golden Rule Condition to be violated and we analyze ergodic properties of such systems.     

Quantum random walks and their convergence to Evans-Hudson flows

Using coordinate-free basic operators on toy Fock spaces, quantum random walks are defined following the ideas of Attal and Pautrat. Extending the result for one dimensional noise, strong convergence of quantum random walks associated with bounded structure maps to Evans-Hudson flow is proved under suitable assumptions. Starting from the bounded generator of a given uniformly continuous quantum dynamical semigroup on a von Neumann algebra, we have constructed quantum random walks which converges strongly and the strong limit gives an Evans-Hudson dilation for the semigroup.     

Quantum extensions of semigroups generated by Bessel processes

We construct a quantum extension of the Markov semigroup of the classical Bessel process of orderv≥1 to the noncommutative von Neumann algebra ß(L ²(0, +∞)) of bounded operators onL ²(0, +∞).     

Stopping times for quantum Markov chains

In the paper we introduce stopping times for quantum Markov states. We study algebras and maps corresponding to stopping times, give a condition of strong Markov property and give classification of projections for the property of accessibility. Our main result is a new recurrence criterium in terms of stopping times (Theorem 1 and Corollary 2). As an application of the criterium we study how, in Section 6, the quantum Markov chain associated with the one-dimensional Heisenberg (usually non-Markovian) process, obtained from this quantum Markov chain by restriction to a diagonal subalgebra, is such that all its states are recurrent. We were not able to obtain this result from the known recurrence criteria of classical probability.Supported by GNAFA-CNR, Bando n. 211.01.25.     

Exponential attractors for first-order lattice dynamical systems

In l², we investigate the existence of an exponential attractor for the solution semigroup of a first-order lattice dynamical system acting on a closed bounded positively invariant set which needs not to be compact since l² is infinite dimensional. Up to our knowledge, this is the first time to examine the existence of exponential attractors for lattice dynamical systems.

Second fundamental form and gradient of Neumann semigroups

The second fundamental form for the boundary of a compact Riemannian manifold is described by a short time behavior for the gradient of Neumann semigroups. As an application, we prove that the manifold is convex if and only if the Neumann heat semigroup Pt satisfies the gradient estimate |∇Ptf|?eKtPt|∇f| for some constant K∈R and all t?0, f∈C¹.     

Three-dimensional dynamical systems with four-dimensional Vessiot-Guldberg-Lie algebras

Dynamical systems attract much attention due to their wide applications. Many significant results have been obtained in this field from various points of view. The present paper is devoted to an algebraic method of integration of three-dimensional nonlinear time dependent dynamical systems admitting nonlinear superposition with four-dimensional Vessiot-Guldberg-Lie algebras $L_4.$ The invariance of the relation between a dynamical system admitting nonlinear superposition and its Vessiot-Guldberg-Lie algebra is the core of the integration method. It allows to simplify the dynamical systems in question by reducing them to \textit{standard forms}. We reduce the three-dimensional dynamical systems with four-dimensional Vessiot-Guldberg-Lie algebras to 98 standard types and show that 86 of them are integrable by quadratures.     

Poincare''s recurrence theorems for set-valued dynamical systems

In this paper, we introduce a new concept called ‘a pair of coincident invariant measures’ and establish the existence of coincident invariant measures for set-valued dynamical systems. As applications, we first give the existence of minimal invariant measures (see definition below) for a set-valued mapping, and then set-valued versions of Poincare's recurrence theorems are also derived.

Regularization for Ill-posed Cauchy problems associated with generators of analytic semigroups

This paper is concerned with the ill-posed Cauchy problem associated with a densely defined linear operator A in a Banach space. Our main result is that if −A is the generator of an analytic semigroup, then there exists a family of regularizing operators for such an ill-posed Cauchy problem by using the quasi-reversibility method, fractional powers and semigroups of linear operators. The applications to ill-posed partial differential equations are also given.

Structure of Quantum Doubles of Finite Clifford Monoids

Abstract

In this paper, over a field k, we give the structure theorem of the quantum double of a finite Clifford monoid through bicrossed products and quantum doubles of groups. By this result, it is shown that the quantum double of a finite Clifford monoid is semisimple (resp. von Neumann regular) if and only if the semigroup is a finite group and the characteristic p of k does not divide the order of this group.     

Combinatorics of sequential dynamical systems

In this paper we study sequential dynamical systems (SDS) over words. Our main result is the classification of SDS over words for fixed graph Y and family of local maps (F_vi) by means of a novel notion of SDS equivalence. This equivalence arises from a natural group action on acyclic orientations. An SDS consists of: (a) a graph Y, (b) a family of vertex indexed Y-local maps F_vi:Kⁿ→Kⁿ, where K is a finite field and (c) a word w, i.e. a family (w₁,…,w_k), where w_j is a Y-vertex. A map F_vi(x_v1,…,x_vn) is called Y-local iff it fixes all variables x_vj≠x_vi and depends exclusively on the variables x_vj, for v_j∈B₁(v_i). The SDS-map is obtained by composing the local maps F_vi according to the word w: . Mutual dependencies of the local maps arising from their sequential application are expressed in the graph G(w,Y) having vertex set {1,…,k} (the indices of the word w) and in which r,s are adjacent iff w_s,w_r are adjacent in Y. We prove a bijection from equivalence classes of SDS-words into equivalence classes of acyclic orientations of G(w,Y). We show that within these equivalence classes the induced SDS are equivalent in the sense that their respective phase spaces are isomorphic as digraphs.
