AbstractWe consider the multifractal analysis of Birkhoff averages of continuous potentials on a self-affine Sierpiński sponge. In particular, we give a variational principle for the packing dimension of the level sets. Furthermore, we prove that the packing spectrum is concave and continuous. We give a sufficient condition for the packing spectrum to be real analytic, but show that for general Hölder continuous potentials, this need not be the case. We also give a precise criterion for when the packing spectrum attains the full packing dimension of the repeller. Again, we present an example showing that this is not always the case.

The topological pressure is defined for subadditive sequence of potentials in bundle random dynamical systems. A variational principle for the topological pressure is set up in a very weak condition. The result may have some applications in the study of multifractal analysis for random version of nonconformal dynamical systems.

In a previous work, we classified weakly complete surfaces which admit a real analytic plurisubharmonic exhaustion function; we showed that, if they are not proper over a Stein space, then they admit a pluriharmonic function, with compact Levi-flat level sets foliated with dense complex leaves. We called these Grauert type surfaces. In this note, we investigate some properties of these surfaces. Namely, we prove that the only compact curves that can be contained in them are negative in the sense of Grauert and that the level sets of the pluriharmonic function are connected, thus completing the analogy with the Cartan–Remmert reduction of a holomorphically convex space. Moreover, in our classification theorem, we had to pass to a double cover to produce the pluriharmonic function; the last part of the present paper is devoted to the construction of an example where passing to a double cover cannot be avoided.

This paper deals with the spreading speeds in the classical Lotka–Volterra cooperative system, of which the bounds have been studied earlier. By introducing an auxiliary cooperative system and constructing an upper solution, we obtain a sufficient condition to confirm two distinct spreading speeds of unknown functions. Due to the different average moving speeds of different level sets, we find the existence of propagation terraces in such a cooperative system with constant coefficients. We also present some numerical results to illustrate our results.

We study the thermodynamic formalism of a $C^{\infty }$ non-uniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphism on the 2-torus, known as the Katok map. We prove for a Hölder continuous potential with one additional condition, or geometric $t$ -potential $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}_{t}$ with $t<1$ , the equilibrium state exists and is unique. We derive the level-2 large deviation principle for the equilibrium state of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}_{t}$ . We study the multifractal spectra of the Katok map for the entropy and dimension of level sets of Lyapunov exponents.

AbstractIn this article, we give a normal form for real-analytic, Levi-nondegenerate submanifolds of{\mathbb{C}^{N}}of codimension{d\geq 1}under the action of formal biholomorphisms. We find a very general sufficient condition on the formal normal form that ensures that the normalizing transformation to this normal form is holomorphic. In the case{d=1}our methods in particular allow us to obtain a new and direct proof of the convergence of the Chern–Moser normal form.

AbstractThe paper is devoted to the study of the multifractal structure of disintegrations of Gibbs measures and conditional (random) Birkhoff averages. Our approach is based on the relativized thermodynamic formalism, convex analysis and, especially, the delicate constructions of Moran-like subsets of level sets.

A complementary energy principle for dynamic analysis due to Toupin is critically examined. It is found that the variational principle is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for geometric compatibility and that consequently it allows the occurrence of spurious solutions. A necessary and sufficient condition of compatibility is obtained through the reciprocal form of Hamilton’s principle which is derived for discrete and continuous systems. Additional terms appearing in the derived principle insure that spurious solutions cannot occur. The derived variational principle can be expressed in terms of stresses and velocities or in terms of impulses.

AbstractThe relationship between the local growth of a continuous function and the packing measure of its level sets and of its graph is studied. For the Weierstrass function with b an integer such that b ≥ 2 and with 0 < α < 1, and for x ∈ Range (W) outside a set of first category, the level set W−1(x) has packing dimension at least 1 − α. Furthermore, for almost all x ∈ Range (W), the packing dimension of f is at most 1 − α. Finer results on the occupation measure and the size of the graph of a continuous function satisfying the Zygmund Λ-condition are obtained.

AbstractLet f define a baker's transformation (Tf, Pf). We find necessary and sufficient conditions on f for (Tf, Pf) to be an N(ω)-step random Markov chain. Using this result, we give a simplified proof of Bose's results on Holder continuous baker's transformations where f is bounded away from zero and one. We extend Bose's results to show that, for the class of baker's transformations which are random Markov chains where TV has finite expectation, a sufficient condition for weak Bernoullicity is that the Lebesgue measure λ{x f(x) = 0 or f(x) = 1} = 0. We also examine random Markov chains satisfying a strictly weaker condition, those for which the differences between the entropy of the process and the conditional entropy given the past to time n form a summable sequence; and we show that a similar result holds. A condition is given on/ which is weaker than Holder continuity, but which implies that the entropy difference sequence is summable. Finally, a particular baker's transformation is exhibited as an easy example of a weakly Bernoulli transformation on which the supremum of the measure of atoms indexed by n-strings decays only as the reciprocal of n.

Since the 1970s there has been a rich theory of equilibrium states over shift spaces associated to Hölder-continuous real-valued potentials. The construction of equilibrium states associated to matrix-valued potentials is much more recent, with a complete description of such equilibrium states being achieved by Feng and Käenmäki [Equilibrium states of the pressure function for products of matrices.Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst.30(3) (2011), 699–708]. In a recent article [Ergodic properties of matrix equilibrium states.Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.(2017), to appear] the author investigated the ergodic-theoretic properties of these matrix equilibrium states, attempting in particular to give necessary and sufficient conditions for mixing, positive entropy, and the property of being a Bernoulli measure with respect to the natural partition, in terms of the algebraic properties of the semigroup generated by the matrices. Necessary and sufficient conditions were successfully established for the latter two properties, but only a sufficient condition for mixing was given. The purpose of this note is to complete that investigation by giving a necessary and sufficient condition for a matrix equilibrium state to be mixing.
