Abstract

Pattern formation is a visual understanding of the dynamics of complex systems. Patterns arise in many ways, such as the segmentation of animals, bacterial colonies during growth, vegetation, chemical reactions, etc. In most cases, the long-range diffusion occurs, and the usual reaction-diffusion (RD) model can not capture such phenomena. The nonlocal RD model, on the other hand, can fill the gap. Analytical derivation of the amplitude equations (AE) for an RD system is a valuable tool to predict the pattern selections, in particular, the stationary Turing patterns when they occur. In this paper, we analyze the conditions for the Turing bifurcation for the nonlocal model and also derive the AE for the nonlocal RD model near the Turing bifurcation threshold to describe the reason behind the pattern selections. This derivation of the AE is not only limited to the nonlocal prey-predator model, as shown in our representative example but also can be applied to other nonlocal models near the Turing bifurcation threshold. The analytical prediction agrees with numerical simulation near the Turing bifurcation threshold. Moreover, the analytical and numerical results fit each other well even more remote from the Turing bifurcation threshold for the small values of the nonlocal parameter but not for the higher values.

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.
