Let $A$ be a finite alphabet and $f:~A^{\ast }\rightarrow A^{\ast }$ be a morphism with an iterative fixed point $f^{{\it\omega}}({\it\alpha})$, where ${\it\alpha}\in A$. Consider the subshift $({\mathcal{X}},T)$, where ${\mathcal{X}}$ is the shift orbit closure of $f^{{\it\omega}}({\it\alpha})$ and $T:~{\mathcal{X}}\rightarrow {\mathcal{X}}$ is the shift map. Let $S$ be a finite alphabet that is in bijective correspondence via a mapping $c$ with the set of non-empty suffixes of the images $f(a)$ for $a\in A$. Let ${\mathcal{S}}\subset S^{\mathbb{N}}$ be the set of infinite words $\mathbf{s}=(s_{n})_{n\geq 0}$ such that ${\it\pi}(\mathbf{s}):=c(s_{0})f(c(s_{1}))f^{2}(c(s_{2}))\cdots \in {\mathcal{X}}$. We show that if $f$ is primitive, $f^{{\it\omega}}({\it\alpha})$ is aperiodic, and $f(A)$ is a suffix code, then there exists a mapping $H:~{\mathcal{S}}\rightarrow {\mathcal{S}}$ such that $({\mathcal{S}},H)$ is a topological dynamical system and ${\it\pi}:~({\mathcal{S}},H)\rightarrow ({\mathcal{X}},T)$ is a conjugacy; we call $({\mathcal{S}},H)$ the suffix conjugate of $({\mathcal{X}},T)$. In the special case where $f$ is the Fibonacci or Thue–Morse morphism, we show that the subshift $({\mathcal{S}},T)$ is sofic, that is, the language of ${\mathcal{S}}$ is regular.

Given a relatively prime pair of integers, $n\geq m>1$, there is associated a topological dynamical system which we refer to as an $n/m$-solenoid. It is also a Smale space, as defined by David Ruelle, meaning that it has local coordinates of contracting and expanding directions. In this case, these are locally products of the real and various $p$-adic numbers. In the special case, $m=2,n=3$ and for $n>3m$, we construct Markov partitions for such systems. The second author has developed a homology theory for Smale spaces and we compute this in these examples, using the given Markov partitions, for all values of $n\geq m>1$ and relatively prime.

Abstract Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system. Given a continuous vector-valued function $F \in C(X, \mathbb {R}^{d})$ called a potential, we define its rotation set $R(F)$ as the set of integrals of F with respect to all T-invariant probability measures, which is a convex body of $\mathbb {R}^{d}$ . In this paper we study the geometry of rotation sets. We prove that if T is a non-uniquely ergodic topological dynamical system with a dense set of periodic measures, then the map $R(\cdot )$ is open with respect to the uniform topologies. As a consequence, we obtain that the rotation set of a generic potential is strictly convex and has $C^{1}$ boundary. Furthermore, we prove that the map $R(\cdot )$ is surjective, extending a result of Kucherenko and Wolf.

We investigate various aspects of a geometric flow defined using the Bach tensor. First, using a well-known split of the Bach tensor components for (2, 2) unwarped product manifolds, we solve the Bach flow equations for typical examples of product manifolds like S2 × S2, R2 × S2. In addition, we obtain the fixed-point condition for general (2, 2) manifolds and solve it for a restricted case. Next, we consider warped manifolds. For Bach flows on a special class of asymmetrically warped 4-manifolds, we reduce the flow equations to a first-order dynamical system, which is solved exactly to find the flow characteristics. We compare our results for Bach flow with those for Ricci flow and discuss the differences qualitatively. Finally, we conclude by mentioning possible directions for future work.

Abstract The transverse vibrating motion of a simple beam with one end fixed while driven harmonically along its axial direction from the other end is investigated. For a special case of zero value for the rigidity of the beam, the system reduces to that of a vibrating string with the corresponding equation of its motion. The sufficient condition for the periodic solution of the beam is then derived by means of the Green’s function and Schauder’s fixed point theorem. The criteria for the stability of the system is well defined and the condition for which the performance of the beam behaves as a nonlinear function is stated.

A one-dimensional Gaussian map defined by a Gaussian function describes a discrete-time dynamical system. Chaotic behavior can be observed in both Gaussian and logistic maps. This study analyzes the bifurcation structure corresponding to the fixed and periodic points of a coupled system comprising two Gaussian maps. The bifurcation structure of a mutually coupled Gaussian map is more complex than that of a mutually coupled logistic map. In a coupled Gaussian map, it was confirmed that after a stable fixed point or stable periodic points became unstable through the bifurcation, the points were able to recover their stability while the system parameters were changing. Moreover, we investigated a parameter region in which symmetric and asymmetric stable fixed points coexisted. Asymmetric unstable fixed point was generated by the [Formula: see text]-type branching of a symmetric stable fixed point. The stability of the unstable fixed point could be recovered through period-doubling and tangent bifurcations. Furthermore, a homoclinic structure related to the occurrence of chaotic behavior and invariant closed curves caused by two-periodic points was observed. The mutually coupled Gaussian map was merely a two-dimensional dynamical system; however, chaotic itinerancy, known to be a characteristic property associated with high-dimensional dynamical systems, was observed. The bifurcation structure of the mutually coupled Gaussian map clearly elucidates the mechanism of chaotic itinerancy generation in the two-dimensional coupled map. We discussed this mechanism by comparing the bifurcation structures of the Gaussian and logistic maps.

In this paper the notion of sub-exponential measure complexity for an invariant Borel probability measure of a topological dynamical system is introduced. Then a minimal distal skew product map on the torus with sub-exponential measure complexity is constructed.

We study the lexicographically least infinite $a/b$-power-free word on the alphabet of non-negative integers. Frequently this word is a fixed point of a uniform morphism, or closely related to one. For example, the lexicographically least $7/4$-power-free word is a fixed point of a $50847$-uniform morphism. We identify the structure of the lexicographically least $a/b$-power-free word for three infinite families of rationals $a/b$ as well many "sporadic" rationals that do not seem to belong to general families. To accomplish this, we develop an automated procedure for proving $a/b$-power-freeness for morphisms of a certain form, both for explicit and symbolic rational numbers $a/b$. Finally, we establish a connection to words on a finite alphabet. Namely, the lexicographically least $27/23$-power-free word is in fact a word on the finite alphabet $\{0, 1, 2\}$, and its sequence of letters is $353$-automatic.

Many combinatorial and arithmetical properties have been studied for infinite words ub associated with ß-integers. Here, new results describing return words and recurrence function for a special case of ub will be presented. The methods used here can be applied to more general infinite words, but the description then becomes rather technical.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of orthogonal $m$-metric spaces and by using $F_m$-contraction in orthogonal $m$-metric spaces, we give the concept of orthogonal $F_m$-contraction (briefly, $\bot_{F_m}$-contraction) and investigate fixed point results for such mappings. Many existing results in the literature appear to be special case of results proved in this paper. An example to support our main results is also mentioned.
