We study the asymptotic dynamics of piecewise-contracting maps defined on a compact interval. For maps that are not necessarily injective, but have a finite number of local extrema and discontinuity points, we prove the existence of a decomposition of the support of the asymptotic dynamics into a finite number of minimal components. Each component is either a periodic orbit or a minimal Cantor set and such that the $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}$ -limit set of (almost) every point in the interval is exactly one of these components. Moreover, we show that each component is the $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}$ -limit set, or the closure of the orbit, of a one-sided limit of the map at a discontinuity point or at a local extremum.

We consider piecewise $C^{2}$ non-flat maps of the interval and show that, for Lebesgue almost every point, its omega-limit set is either a periodic orbit, a cycle of intervals or the closure of the orbits of a subset of the critical points. In particular, every piecewise $C^{2}$ non-flat map of the interval displays only a finite number of non-periodic attractors.

AbstractLet X be a dendrite, f : X → X be a monotone map. In the papers by I. Naghmouchi (2011, 2012) it is shown that ω-limit set ω(x, f ) of any point x ∈ X has the next properties: (1)\omega (x,f) \subseteq \overline {Per(f)} , where Per( f ) is the set of periodic points of f ;(2)ω(x, f ) is either a periodic orbit or a minimal Cantor set.In the paper by E. Makhrova, K. Vaniukova (2016 ) it is proved that (3)\Omega (f) = \overline {Per(f)} , where Ω( f ) is the set of non-wandering points of f.The aim of this note is to show that the above results (1) – (3) do not hold for monotone maps on dendroids.

Abstract We prove that Kleinian groups whose limit sets are Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension < 1 are free. On the other hand we construct for any ε > 0 an example of a non-free purely hyperbolic Kleinian group whose limit set is a Cantor set of Hausdorff dimension < 1 + ε.


A method for regularizing spectral determinants is developed which facilitates their computation from a finite number of eigenvalues. This is used to calcu­late the determinant ∆ for the hyperbola billiard over a range which includes 46 quantum energy levels. The result is compared with semiclassical periodic orbit evaluations of ∆ using the Dirichlet series, Euler product, and a Riemann-Siegel-type formula. It is found that the Riemann-Siegel-type expansion, which uses the least number of orbits, gives the closest approximation. This provides explicit numerical support for recent conjectures concerning the analytic proper­ties of semiclassical formulae, and in particular for the existence of resummation relations connecting long and short pseudo-orbits.

We construct purely loxodromic, geometrically finite, free Kleinian groups acting on S3 whose limit sets are wild Cantor sets. Our construction is closely related to the construction of the wild Fox–Artin arc.

For a non-generic, yet dense subset of$C^{1}$expanding Markov maps of the interval we prove the existence of uncountably many Lyapunov optimizing measures which are ergodic, fully supported and have positive entropy. These measures are equilibrium states for some Hölder continuous potentials. We also prove the existence of another non-generic dense subset for which the optimizing measure is unique and supported on a periodic orbit. A key ingredient is a new$C^{1}$perturbation theorem which allows us to interpolate between expanding Markov maps and the shift map on a finite number of symbols.

We investigate the dynamics of unimodal maps $f$ of the interval restricted to the omega limit set $X$ of the critical point for cases where $X$ is a Cantor set. In particular, many cases where $X$ is a measure attractor of $f$ are included. We give two classes of examples of such maps, both generalizing unimodal Fibonacci maps [LM, BKNS]. In all cases $f_{|X}$ is a continuous factor of a generalized odometer (an adding machine-like dynamical system), and at the same time $f_{|X}$ factors onto an irrational circle rotation. In some of the examples we obtain irrational rotations on more complicated groups as factors.

Let f be a continuous map from a compact interval into itself. Continuing the work begun by Schweizer and Smítal [1994], we prove that the restriction of f to any basic set (i.e. any nonsolenoidal, infinite, maximal ω-limit set) satisfies a generalization of the specification property. We apply this generalization to establish several conjectures made in the abovementioned paper, e.g. the fact that distributional chaos is stable.

We study the classification of the pairs (N, X) where N is a Stein surface and X is a ℂ-complete holomorphic vector field with isolated singularities on N. We describe the role of transverse sections in the classification of X and give necessary and sufficient conditions on X in order to have N biholomorphic to ℂ2. As a sample of our results, we prove that N is biholomorphic to ℂ2 if H2(N, ℤ) = 0, X has a finite number of singularities and exhibits a singularity with three separatrices or, equivalently, a singularity with first jet of the form [Formula: see text] where λ1/λ2 ∈ ℚ+. We also study flows with many periodic orbits (i.e. orbits diffeomorphic to ℂ*), in a sense we will make clear, proving they admit a meromorphic first integral or they exhibit some special periodic orbit, whose holonomy map is a non-resonant nonlinearizable diffeomorphism map.
