A Symplectic Kovacic's Algorithm in Dimension 4
2018
Let $L$ be a $4$th order differential operator with coefficients in $\mathbb{K}(z)$, with $\mathbb{K}$ a computable algebraically closed field. The operator $L$ is called symplectic when up to rational gauge transformation, the fundamental matrix of solutions $X$ satisfies $X^t J X=J$ where $J$ is the standard symplectic matrix. It is called projectively symplectic when it is projectively equivalent to a symplectic operator. We design an algorithm to test if $L$ is projectively symplectic. Furthermore, based on Kovacic's algorithm, we design an algorithm that computes Liouvillian solutions of projectively symplectic operators of order $4$. Moreover, using Klein's Theorem, algebraic solution…
Tame dynamics and robust transitivity
2011
One main task of smooth dynamical systems consists in finding a good decomposition into elementary pieces of the dynamics. This paper contributes to the study of chain-recurrence classes. It is known that $C^1$-generically, each chain-recurrence class containing a periodic orbit is equal to the homoclinic class of this orbit. Our result implies that in general this property is fragile. We build a C1-open set U of tame diffeomorphisms (their dynamics only splits into finitely many chain-recurrence classes) such that for any diffeomorphism in a C-infinity-dense subset of U, one of the chain-recurrence classes is not transitive (and has an isolated point). Moreover, these dynamics are obtained…

On a quadratic form associated with the nilpotent part of the monodromy of a curve
2021
Minor correction on the metadata of one of the authors. The rest is exactly the same; We study the nilpotent part of certain pseudoperiodic automorphisms of surfaces appearing in singularity theory. We associate a quadratic form $\tilde{Q}$ defined on the first (relative to the boundary) homology group of the Milnor fiber $F$ of any germ analytic curve on a normal surface. Using the twist formula and techniques from mapping class group theory, we prove that the form $\tilde{Q}$ obtained after killing ${\ker N}$ is definite positive, and that its restriction to the absolute homology group of $F$ is even whenever the Nielsen-Thurston graph of the monodromy automorphism is a tree. The form $\t…
Statistical consequences of the Devroye inequality for processes. Applications to a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems
2005
In this paper, we apply Devroye inequality to study various statistical estimators and fluctuations of observables for processes. Most of these observables are suggested by dynamical systems. These applications concern the co-variance function, the integrated periodogram, the correlation dimension, the kernel density estimator, the speed of convergence of empirical measure, the shadowing property and the almost-sure central limit theorem. We proved in \cite{CCS} that Devroye inequality holds for a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems introduced in \cite{young}. In the second appendix we prove that, if the decay of correlations holds with a common rate for all pairs of functio…
Reversible inhibition excluses the coexistence at continuous culture
2010
We consider a simple chemostat model involving two species feeding on limiting substrate with reversible inhibition. Systems of differential equations are proposed as models of this association. A detailed qualitative analysis is carried out.We proved, under general and naturel assumptions of monotony on the response functions that the persistence of the two species is impossible.
Extending existential feeling through sensory substitution
2023
AbstractIn current philosophy of mind, there is lively debate over whether emotions, moods, and other affects can extend to comprise elements beyond one’s organismic boundaries. At the same time, there has been growing interest in the nature and significance of so-called existential feelings, which, as the term suggests, are feelings of one’s overall being in the world. In this article, I bring these two strands of investigation together to ask: can the material underpinnings of existential feelings extend beyond one’s skull and skin? To begin, I introduce and adopt a componential-systemic view of extended affectivity. In doing so, I specify the vehicle externalist criteria for extension em…
Information Decomposition in Bivariate Systems: Theory and Application to Cardiorespiratory Dynamics
2015
In the framework of information dynamics, the temporal evolution of coupled systems can be studied by decomposing the predictive information about an assigned target system into amounts quantifying the information stored inside the system and the information transferred to it. While information storage and transfer are computed through the known self-entropy (SE) and transfer entropy (TE), an alternative decomposition evidences the so-called cross entropy (CE) and conditional SE (cSE), quantifying the cross information and internal information of the target system, respectively. This study presents a thorough evaluation of SE, TE, CE and cSE as quantities related to the causal statistical s…
Interfaces between coexisting phases in polymer mixtures: What can we learn from Monte Carlo simulations?
1999
Symmetric binary polymer mixtures are studied by Monte Carlo simulation of the bond fluctuation model, considering both interfaces between coexisting bulk phases and interfaces confined in thin films. It is found that the critical behavior of interfacial tension and width is compatible with that of the Ising model, as expected from the universality principle. In the strong segregation limit, only qualitative but not quantitative agreement with the self-consistent field (SCF) theory is found. It is argued that the SCF theory requires √ 6 X √D for short-range forces, in agreement with experiment.
