Integrability via Reversibility
2017
Abstract A class of left-invariant second order reversible systems with functional parameter is introduced which exhibits the phenomenon of robust integrability: an open and dense subset of the phase space is filled with invariant tori carrying quasi-periodic motions, and this behavior persists under perturbations within the class. Real-analytic volume preserving systems are found in this class which have positive Lyapunov exponents on an open subset, and the complement filled with invariant tori.
Self-affine sets with fibered tangents
2016
We study tangent sets of strictly self-affine sets in the plane. If a set in this class satisfies the strong separation condition and projects to a line segment for sufficiently many directions, then for each generic point there exists a rotation $\mathcal O$ such that all tangent sets at that point are either of the form $\mathcal O((\mathbb R \times C) \cap B(0,1))$, where $C$ is a closed porous set, or of the form $\mathcal O((\ell \times \{ 0 \}) \cap B(0,1))$, where $\ell$ is an interval.
A C1-generic dichotomy for diffeomorphisms: Weak forms of hyperbolicity or infinitely many sinks or sources
2003
We show that, for every compact n-dimensional manifold, n > 1, there is a residual subset of Diff (M) of diffeomorphisms for which the homoclinic class of any periodic saddle of f verifies one of the following two possibilities: Either it is contained in the closure of an infinite set of sinks or sources (Newhouse phenomenon), or it presents some weak form of hyperbolicity called dominated splitting (this is a generalization of a bidimensional result of Mafine [Ma3]). In particular, we show that any Cl-robustly transitive diffeomorphism admits a dominated splitting.
Stability of Hamiltonian Systems of Two Degrees of Freedom and of Formally Conservative Mappings Near a Singular Point
1985
We restrict ourselves to the stability problems considered in our lecture because the length of this paper is limited. In contrast to the lecture, however, we consider here not only area preserving mappings but a more general class of mappings.
Devroye Inequality for a Class of Non-Uniformly Hyperbolic Dynamical Systems
2005
In this paper, we prove an inequality, which we call "Devroye inequality", for a large class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems (M,f). This class, introduced by L.-S. Young, includes families of piece-wise hyperbolic maps (Lozi-like maps), scattering billiards (e.g., planar Lorentz gas), unimodal and H{\'e}non-like maps. Devroye inequality provides an upper bound for the variance of observables of the form K(x,f(x),...,f^{n-1}(x)), where K is any separately Holder continuous function of n variables. In particular, we can deal with observables which are not Birkhoff averages. We will show in \cite{CCS} some applications of Devroye inequality to statistical properties of this class…
Weakly controlled Moran constructions and iterated functions systems in metric spaces
2011
We study the Hausdorff measures of limit sets of weakly controlled Moran constructions in metric spaces. The separation of the construction pieces is closely related to the Hausdorff measure of the corresponding limit set. In particular, we investigate different separation conditions for semiconformal iterated function systems. Our work generalizes well known results on self-similar sets in metric spaces as well as results on controlled Moran constructions in Euclidean spaces.
Existence of common zeros for commuting vector fields on 3‐manifolds II. Solving global difficulties
2020
We address the following conjecture about the existence of common zeros for commuting vector fields in dimension three: if $X,Y$ are two $C^1$ commuting vector fields on a $3$-manifold $M$, and $U$ is a relatively compact open such that $X$ does not vanish on the boundary of $U$ and has a non vanishing Poincar\'e-Hopf index in $U$, then $X$ and $Y$ have a common zero inside $U$. We prove this conjecture when $X$ and $Y$ are of class $C^3$ and every periodic orbit of $Y$ along which $X$ and $Y$ are collinear is partially hyperbolic. We also prove the conjecture, still in the $C^3$ setting, assuming that the flow $Y$ leaves invariant a transverse plane field. These results shed new light on t…
SURVEY Towards a global view of dynamical systems, for the C1-topology
2011
AbstractThis paper suggests a program for getting a global view of the dynamics of diffeomorphisms, from the point of view of the C1-topology. More precisely, given any compact manifold M, one splits Diff1(M) into disjoint C1-open regions whose union is C1-dense, and conjectures state that each of these open sets and their complements is characterized by the presence of: •either a robust local phenomenon;•or a global structure forbidding this local phenomenon. Other conjectures state that some of these regions are empty. This set of conjectures draws a global view of the dynamics, putting in evidence the coherence of the numerous recent results on C1-generic dynamics.
Finiteness properties of pseudo-hyperbolic varieties
2019
Motivated by Lang-Vojta's conjecture, we show that the set of dominant rational self-maps of an algebraic variety over a number field with only finitely many rational points in any given number field is finite by combining Amerik's theorem for dynamical systems of infinite order with properties of Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal models. We also prove a similar result in the geometric setting by using again Amerik's theorem and Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal model, but also Weil's regularization theorem for birational self-maps and properties of dynamical degrees. Furthermore, in the geometric setting, we obtain an analogue of Kobayashi-Ochiai's finiteness result for…
Equilibrium measures for uniformly quasiregular dynamics
2012
We establish the existence and fundamental properties of the equilibrium measure in uniformly quasiregular dynamics. We show that a uniformly quasiregular endomorphism $f$ of degree at least 2 on a closed Riemannian manifold admits an equilibrium measure $\mu_f$, which is balanced and invariant under $f$ and non-atomic, and whose support agrees with the Julia set of $f$. Furthermore we show that $f$ is strongly mixing with respect to the measure $\mu_f$. We also characterize the measure $\mu_f$ using an approximation property by iterated pullbacks of points under $f$ up to a set of exceptional initial points of Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. These dynamical mixing and approximation resu…
