Geometric rigidity of a class of fractal sets

2017

We study geometric rigidity of a class of fractals, which is slightly larger than the collection of self-conformal sets. Namely, using a new method, we shall prove that a set of this class is contained in a smooth submanifold or is totally spread out. (© 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

2018

Given a compact Hausdorff space X and a homeomorphism σ on X, denote by Σ=(X,σ) a topological dynamical system. Then the associated Banach ∗-algebra ℓ1(Σ) is defined as ℓ1(Σ)={a:Z→C(X), ∥a∥:=∑n∈Z∥a(n)∥<∞} with a crossed product–type product (aa′)(n)=∑k∈Za(k)⋅αk(a′(n−k)) and involution a∗(n)=αn(a(−n))¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, where C(X) denote the space of complex-valued continuous functions on X, and α(f):=f∘σ−1 for f∈C(X). If C∗(Σ) is the enveloping C∗-algebra of ℓ1(Σ), considering a primitive ideal I of ℓ1(Σ), the authors show that there exists a ∗-representation π of ℓ1(Σ) on Hilbert space such that the kernel is I, and that the closure in C∗(Σ) of an ideal of ℓ1(Σ) is an ideal of C∗(Σ).

Asymptotic properties of incoherent waves propagating in an all-optical regenerators line

2007

International audience; We present an original method to generate optical pulse trains with random time-interval values from incoherent broadband sources. More precisely, our technique relies on the remarkable properties of a line made of cascaded self-phase modulation-based optical regenerators. Depending on the regenerator parameters, various regimes with noticeably different physical behaviors can be reported.

A proof of bistability for the dual futile cycle

2014

Abstract The multiple futile cycle is an important building block in networks of chemical reactions arising in molecular biology. A typical process which it describes is the addition of n phosphate groups to a protein. It can be modelled by a system of ordinary differential equations depending on parameters. The special case n = 2 is called the dual futile cycle. The main result of this paper is a proof that there are parameter values for which the system of ODE describing the dual futile cycle has two distinct stable stationary solutions. The proof is based on bifurcation theory and geometric singular perturbation theory. An important entity built of three coupled multiple futile cycles is…

Separatrix reconstruction to identify tipping points in an eco-epidemiological model

2018

Many ecological systems exhibit tipping points such that they suddenly shift from one state to another. These shifts can be devastating from an ecological point of view, and additionally have severe implications for the socio-economic system. They can be caused by overcritical perturbations of the state variables such as external shocks, disease emergence, or species removal. It is therefore important to be able to quantify the tipping points. Here we present a study of the tipping points by considering the basins of attraction of the stable equilibrium points. We address the question of finding the tipping points that lie on the separatrix surface, which partitions the space of system traj…

Attractors for non-autonomous retarded lattice dynamical systems

2015

AbstractIn this paperwe study a non-autonomous lattice dynamical system with delay. Under rather general growth and dissipative conditions on the nonlinear term,we define a non-autonomous dynamical system and prove the existence of a pullback attractor for such system as well. Both multivalued and single-valued cases are considered.

Self-stabilizing processes: uniqueness problem for stationary measures and convergence rate in the small-noise limit

2011

In the context of self-stabilizing processes, that is processes attracted by their own law, living in a potential landscape, we investigate different properties of the invariant measures. The interaction between the process and its law leads to nonlinear stochastic differential equations. In [S. Herrmann and J. Tugaut. Electron. J. Probab. 15 (2010) 2087–2116], the authors proved that, for linear interaction and under suitable conditions, there exists a unique symmetric limit measure associated to the set of invariant measures in the small-noise limit. The aim of this study is essentially to point out that this statement leads to the existence, as the noise intensity is small, of one unique…

Dynamics of the Selkov oscillator.

2018

A classical example of a mathematical model for oscillations in a biological system is the Selkov oscillator, which is a simple description of glycolysis. It is a system of two ordinary differential equations which, when expressed in dimensionless variables, depends on two parameters. Surprisingly it appears that no complete rigorous analysis of the dynamics of this model has ever been given. In this paper several properties of the dynamics of solutions of the model are established. With a view to studying unbounded solutions a thorough analysis of the Poincar\'e compactification of the system is given. It is proved that for any values of the parameters there are solutions which tend to inf…

Modeling interactions between political parties and electors

2017

In this paper we extend some recent results on an operatorial approach to the description of alliances between political parties interacting among themselves and with a basin of electors. In particular, we propose and compare three different models, deducing the dynamics of their related {\em decision functions}, i.e. the attitude of each party to form or not an alliance. In the first model the interactions between each party and their electors are considered. We show that these interactions drive the decision functions towards certain asymptotic values depending on the electors only: this is the {\em perfect party}, which behaves following the electors' suggestions. The second model is an …
