The topic of this note is the Riesz decomposition of excessive functions for a “nice” strong Markov process X. I.e. an excessive function is decomposed into a sum of a potential of a measure and a “harmonic” function. Originally such decompositions were studied by G.A. Hunt [8]. In [1] a Riesz decomposition is given assuming that the state space E is locally compact with a countable base and X is a transient standard process in strong duality with another standard process having a strong Feller resolvent. Recently R.K. Getoor and J. Glover extended the theory to the case of transient Borei right processes in weak duality [6].

Freudenthal [5, 7] defined a compactification of a rim-compact space, that is, a space having a base of open sets with compact boundary. The additional points are called ends and Freudenthal showed that a connected locally compact non-compact group having a countable base has one or two ends. Later, Freudenthal [8], Zippin [16], and Iwasawa [11] showed that a connected locally compact group has two ends if and only if it is the direct product of a compact group and the reals.

The decomposition of state spaces into dynamically different components is helpful for understanding dynamics of complex systems. A Conley-type decomposition theorem is proved for non-autonomous dynamical systems defined on a non-compact but separable state space. Specifically, the state space can be decomposed into a chain-recurrent part and a gradient-like part. This result applies to both non-autonomous ordinary differential equations on a Euclidean space (which is only locally compact), and to non-autonomous partial differential equations on an infinite-dimensional function space (which is not even locally compact). This decomposition result is demonstrated by discussing a few concrete examples, such as the Lorenz system and the Navier–Stokes system, under time-dependent forcing.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of higher-order weak adjacent epiderivative for a set-valued map without lower-order approximating directions and obtain existence theorem and some properties of the epiderivative. Then by virtue of the epiderivative and Benson proper efficiency, we establish the higher-order Mond-Weir type dual problem for a set-valued optimization problem and obtain the corresponding weak duality, strong duality and converse duality theorems, respectively.

Abstract We prove that, under certain restrictions, every locally compact group equipped with a nonzero, σ-finite, regular left Haar measure can be decomposed into two small sets, one of which is small in the sense of measure and the other is small in the sense of category, and all such decompositions originate from a generalised notion of a Lebesgue point. Incidentally, such class of topological groups for which this happens turns out to be metrisable. We also observe an interesting connection between Luzin sets in such spaces and decompositions of the above type.

Abstract We consider a class of impulse control problems for general underlying strong Markov processes on the real line, which allows for an explicit solution. The optimal impulse times are shown to be of a threshold type and the optimal threshold is characterised as a solution of a (typically nonlinear) equation. The main ingredient we use is a representation result for excessive functions in terms of expected suprema.

AbstractTricot [27] provided apparently dual representations of the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of any analytic subset of Euclidean d-space in terms of, respectively, the lower and upper pointwise dimension maps of the finite Borel measures on ℝd. In this paper we show that Tricot's two representations, while similar in appearance, are in fact not duals of each other, but rather the duals of two other ‘missing’ representations. The key to obtaining these missing representations lies in extended Frostman and antiFrostman lemmas, both of which we develop in this paper. This leads to the formulation of two distinct characterizations of dim (A) and Dim (A), one which we call the weak duality principle and the other the strong duality principle. In particular, the strong duality principle is concerned with the existence, for each analytic set A, of measures on A that are (almost) of the same exact dimension (Hausdorff or packing) as A. The connection with Rényi (or information) dimension and a variational principle of Cutler and Olsen[12] is also established.
