Abstract

In this paper we propose two fully discrete Finite Elements (FE) schemes for a repulsive chemotaxis model with quadratic production term. The first one (called scheme UV) corresponds to the backward Euler in time with FE in space approximation; while the second one (called scheme US$_\varepsilon$) is obtained as a modification of the scheme US proposed by [Guill\'en-Gonz\'alez et al.], by applying a regularization procedure. We prove that the schemes UV and US$_\varepsilon$ have better properties than the FE scheme US. Specifically, we prove that, unlike the scheme US, the scheme UV is energy-stable in the primitive variables of the model, under a "compatibility" condition on the FE spaces. On the other hand, the scheme US$_\varepsilon$ is energy-stable with respect to the same modified energy of the scheme US, and an "approximated positivity" property holds (which is not possible to prove for the schemes US and UV). Additionally, we study the well-posedness of the schemes and the long time behaviour obtaining exponential convergence to constant states. Finally, we compare the numerical schemes throughout several numerical simulations.

Admissible Fourier Lengths, KAM Reducibility, and Spectral Applications

We develop a perturbative KAM reducibility theory for one-frequency $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ cocycles based on an admissible Fourier length $\ell$. The regularity relevant to the iteration is measured by positive adapted Fourier width rather than ordinary smoothness in the Euclidean length $|n|$. The same length governs Fourier decay, truncation and resonance scales, and the arithmetic condition controlling the small divisors. This framework contains the classical analytic and Gevrey settings, while non-monotone choices of $\ell$ allow classical nowhere differentiable Weierstrass-type perturbations and continuous perturbations outside every positive H\"older class. As spectral applications, we obtain purely absolutely continuous spectrum for every phase and $1/2$-H\"older continuity of the integrated density of states for the associated quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators. The Aubry dual has pure point spectrum for Lebesgue almost every dual phase, with eigenfunctions exponentially localized in the metric induced by $\ell$. We also construct nowhere differentiable quasiperiodic potentials with purely absolutely continuous Cantor spectrum.

Dynamics inside the attracting basins of some skew products

Polynomial skew products in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are maps of the form $F(z,w)=(P(z),Q(z,w))$, where $P$ and $Q$ are polynomials. Their local dynamics have been widely investigated. In this paper, we study the global dynamics inside Fatou components of some skew products. We consider all the inverse images in a Fatou component of a given point and use the Kobayashi metric to measure the distance between points. In the cases we consider, there are always arbitrarily large Kobayashi balls in the complement of these inverse sets.

Ergodicity of dynamical systems without uniqueness of orbits

Recently, there has been considerable interest in the study of non-deterministic dynamical systems. To analyze the chaotic behavior of such systems from a measure-theoretic viewpoint, it is desirable to consider ergodicity. However, the classical definition of ergodicity involves invariant sets, whose definition is not unique for non-deterministic dynamical systems. Thus, we are led to the question of which invariance yields an interesting definition of ergodicity. Here, we propose a definition based on the strong backward invariance and show that analogs of classical results hold. We also consider implications of the Birkhoff ergodic theorem for systems without uniqueness of orbits.
