In the study of dynamical systems perturbed by noise, it is important to know whether the stochastic process of interest has a stationary distribution. Four necessary and sufficient conditions are formulated for the existence of a finite invariant measure for a Feller process on a σ-compact metric (state) space. These conditions link together stability notions from several fields. The first uses a Lyapunov function reminiscent of Lagrange stability in differential equations; the second depends on Prokhorov's condition for sequential compactness of measures; the third is a recurrence condition on the ergodic averages of the transition operator; and the fourth is analogous to a condition of Ulam and Oxtoby for the nonstochastic case.

We study ergodic finite and infinite measures defined on the path space $X_{B}$ of a Bratteli diagram $B$ which are invariant with respect to the tail equivalence relation on $X_{B}$. Our interest is focused on measures supported by vertex and edge subdiagrams of $B$. We give several criteria when a finite invariant measure defined on the path space of a subdiagram of $B$ extends to a finite invariant measure on $B$. Given a finite ergodic measure on a Bratteli diagram $B$ and a subdiagram $B^{\prime }$ of $B$, we find the necessary and sufficient conditions under which the measure of the path space $X_{B^{\prime }}$ of $B^{\prime }$ is positive. For a class of Bratteli diagrams of finite rank, we determine when they have maximal possible number of ergodic invariant measures. The case of diagrams of rank two is completely studied. We also include an example which explicitly illustrates the proven results.

AbstractLet ℝ denote the real line. Let {Tt}tєℝ be a measure preserving ergodic flow on a non atomic finite measure space (X, ℱ, μ). A nonnegative function φ on ℝ is called a weight function if ∫ℝ φ(t)dt = 1. Consider the weighted ergodic averagesof a function f X —> ℝ, where {θk} is a sequence of weight functions. Some sufficient and some necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the a.e. convergence of Akf, in particular for a special case in whichwhere φ is a fixed weight function and {(ak, rk)} is a sequence of pairs of real numbers such that rk > 0 for all k. These conditions are obtained by a combination of the methods of Bellow-Jones-Rosenblatt, developed to deal with moving ergodic averages, and the methods of Broise-Déniel-Derriennic, developed to deal with unbounded weight functions.

The purpose of this paper is to obtain a set of sufficient conditions for “global asymptotic stability” of the trivial solution x = 0 of the differential equation1.1using a Lyapunov function which is substantially different from similar functions used in [2], [3] and [4], for similar differential equations. The functions f1, f2 and f3 are real - valued and are smooth enough to ensure the existence of the solutions of (1.1) on [0, ∞). The dot indicates differentiation with respect to t. We are taking a and b to be some positive parameters.

AbstractLet (X, ν) be a finite measure space and let T: X → X be a measurable transformation. In this paper we prove that the averages converge a.e. for every f in Lp(dν), 1 < p < ∞, if and only if there exists a measure γ equivalent to ν such that the averages apply uniformly Lp(dν) into weak-Lp(dγ). As a corollary, we get that uniform boundedness of the averages in Lp(dν) implies a.e. convergence of the averages (a result recently obtained by Assani). In order to do this, we first study measures v equivalent to a finite invariant measure μ, and we prove that supn≥0An(dν/dμ)−1/(p−1) a.e. is a necessary and sufficient condition for the averages to converge a.e. for every f in Lp(dν).

AbstractThis paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of solutions of nonlinear differential equations of the third-order with quasiderivatives. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing the existence of bounded nonoscillatory solutions. Sufficient conditions are proved via a topological approach based on the Banach fixed point theorem.
