Hyperbolic discount curves: a reply to Ainslie
2013
Published version of an article in the journal: Theory and Decision. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11238-013-9361-8 Ainslie (Theory and Decision, 73, 3-34, 2012) challenges our interpretation of the properties of hyperbolic discount curves in an iterated prisoners' dilemma (IPD) model. In this reply, we discuss the emergence of hyperbolic discount functions in the behavioral economics literature and evaluate their properties. Furthermore, we present a summarized version of our IPD model and evaluate Ainslie's points of contention.
Dryland vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal
2022
This manuscript tackles the study of vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal. To achieve this goal, an hyperbolic extension of the classical parabolic Klausmeier model of vegetation, generally used to predict the formation of banded vegetation along the slopes of semiarid environments, has been here considered together with an additional advective term mimicking the downslope motion of seeds. Linear stability analyses have been carried out to inspect the dependence of the wave instability locus on the model parameters, with particular emphasis on the role played by inertial time and seed advection speed. Moreover, periodic travelling wave solution…
Some Theoretical Results About Stability for IMEX Schemes Applied to Hyperbolic Equations with Stiff Reaction Terms
2010
In this work we are concerned with certain numerical difficulties associated to the use of high order Implicit–Explicit Runge–Kutta (IMEX-RK) schemes in a direct discretization of balance laws with stiff source terms. We consider a simple model problem, introduced by LeVeque and Yee in [J. Comput. Phys 86 (1990)], as the basic test case to explore the ability of IMEX-RK schemes to produce and maintain non-oscillatory reaction fronts.
Building Anosov flows on $3$–manifolds
2014
We prove a result allowing to build (transitive or non-transitive) Anosov flows on 3-manifolds by gluing together filtrating neighborhoods of hyperbolic sets. We give several applications; for example: 1. we build a 3-manifold supporting both of a transitive Anosov vector field and a non-transitive Anosov vector field; 2. for any n, we build a 3-manifold M supporting at least n pairwise different Anosov vector fields; 3. we build transitive attractors with prescribed entrance foliation; in particular, we construct some incoherent transitive attractors; 4. we build a transitive Anosov vector field admitting infinitely many pairwise non-isotopic trans- verse tori.
INSTABILITY OF HAMILTONIAN SYSTEMS IN THE SENSE OF CHIRIKOV AND BIFURCATION IN A NON LINEAR EVOLUTION PROBLEM EMANATING FROM PHYSICS
2004
We prove the existence of a minimal geometrico-dynamical condition to create hyperbolicity in section in the vicinity of a transversal homoclinic partially hyperbolic torus in a near integrable Hamiltonian system with three degrees of freedom. We deduce in this context a generalization of the Easton's theorem of symbolic dynamics. Then we give the optimal estimation of the Arnold diffusion time along a transition chain in the initially hyperbolic Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom with a surrounding chain of hyperbolic periodic orbits .In a second part, we describe geometrically a mechanism of diffusion studied by Chirikov in a near integrable Hamiltonian system with three de…
Dynamic instability in absence of dominated splittings.
2006
We want to understand the dynamics in absence of dominated splittings. A dominated splitting is a weak form of hyperbolicity where the tangent bundle splits into invariant subbundles, each of them is more contracted or less expanded by the dynamics than the next one. We first answer an old question from Hirsch, Pugh and Shub, and show the existence of adapted metrics for dominated splittings.Mañé found on surfaces a $C^1$-generic dichotomy between hyperbolicity and Newhouse phenomenons (infinitely many sinks/sources). For that purpose, he showed that without a strong enough dominated splitting along one periodic orbit, a $C^1$-perturbation creates a sink or a source. We generalise that last…
Finite quotients of the Picard group and related hyperbolic tetrahedral and Bianchi groups
2001
There is an extensive literature on the fi{}nite index subgroups and the fi{}nite quotient groups of the Picard group $PSL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid i\mid\right)$. The main result of the present paper is the classifi{}cation of all linear fractional groups $PSL\left(2,p^{m}\right)$ which occur as fi{}nite quotients of the Picard group. We classify also the fi{}nite quotients of linear fractional type of various related hyperbolic tetrahedral groups which uniformize the cusped orientable hyperbolic 3-orbifolds of minimal volumes. Also these cusped tetrahedral groups are of Bianchi type, that is of the form $PSL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid\omega\mid\right)$ or $PGL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid\omega\mid\right…
Quasi-isometrically embedded subgroups of braid and diffeomorphism groups
2005
We show that a large class of right-angled Artin groups (in particular, those with planar complementary defining graph) can be embedded quasi-isometrically in pure braid groups and in the group of area preserving diffeomorphisms of the disk fixing the boundary (with respect to the $L^2$-norm metric); this extends results of Benaim and Gambaudo who gave quasi-isometric embeddings of $F\_n$ and $\Z^n$ for all $n>0$. As a consequence we are also able to embed a variety of Gromov hyperbolic groups quasi-isometrically in pure braid groups and in the diffeomorphism group of the disk. Examples include hyperbolic surface groups, some HNN-extensions of these along cyclic subgroups and the fundame…
Teichmuller Space and Related Topics : Proceedings of the workshop on Geometry, January 20, 2011, JOSAI UNIVERSITY
2012
The theory of geometric structures on a surface with nonempty boundary can be developed by using a decomposit,ion of such a surface into hexagons, in the same way as the theory of geometric structures on a surface without boundary is developed using the decomposition of such a surface into pairs of pants. The basic elements of the theory for surfaces with boundary include the study of measured foliations and of hyperbolic structures on hexagons. It turns out that there is an interesting space of measured foliations on a hexagon, which is equipped with a piecewise-Iinear structure (in fact, a natural cell-decomposition), and this space is a natural boundary for the space of hyperbolic struct…
Hyperbolic isometries versus symmetries of links
2009
We prove that every finite group is the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complement of a hyperbolic link in the 3-sphere.
