We establish a Perron-type result for the perturbations of a linear cocycle in the context of ergodic theory. More precisely, we show that the Lyapunov exponents of a linear cocycle are preserved under sufficiently small nonautonomous perturbations. Our approach is based on the Lyapunov theory of regularity.

AbstractWe show that any evolution family with a strong nonuniform exponential dichotomy can always be transformed by a topological equivalence to a canonical form that contracts and/or expands the same in all directions. We emphasize that strong nonuniform exponential dichotomies are ubiquitous in the context of ergodic theory. The main novelty of our work is that we are able to control the asymptotic behaviour of the topological conjugacies at the origin and at infinity.

AbstractIn this paper we will study the dynamics of the periodic asymmetric oscillator xʺ + qdoes exist for each non-zero solution x(t) of the oscillator. The properties of these rates, or the Lyapunov exponents, will be given using the induced circle di®eomorphism of the oscillator. The proof is extensively based on the Denjoy theorem in topological dynamics and the unique ergodicity theorem in ergodic theory.

AbstractWe prove the following dichotomy for vector fields in a $C^1$-residual subset of volume-preserving flows: for Lebesgue-almost every point, either all of its Lyapunov exponents are equal to zero or its orbit has a dominated splitting. Moreover, we prove that a volume-preserving and $C^1$-stably ergodic flow can be $C^1$-approximated by another volume-preserving flow which is non-uniformly hyperbolic.

The flexibility and low damping of the long span suspended cables in suspension bridges makes them prone to vibrations due to wind and moving loads which affect the dynamic responses of the suspended cables and the bridge deck. This paper investigates the control of vibrations of a suspension bridge due to a vertical load moving on the bridge deck with a constant speed. A vertical cable between the bridge deck and the suspended cables is used to install a hydraulic actuator able to generate an active control force on the bridge deck. Two control schemes are proposed to generate the control force needed to reduce the vertical vibrations in the suspended cables and in the bridge deck. The proposed controllers, whose design is based on Lyapunov theory, guarantee the asymptotic stability of the system. The MATLAB software is used to simulate the performance of the controlled system. The simulation results indicate that the proposed controllers work well. In addition, the performance of the system with the proposed controllers is compared to the performance of the system controlled with a velocity feedback controller.
