Existence of Solutions for Hybrid Dynamical Systems on Graph State-Space

Abstract

This paper proposes a framework to ensure the existence of dynamical system trajectories in the state space of labeled, weighted, and attributed graphs. The evolution of such a system exhibits hybrid behavior: discrete jumps affecting the topology-the emergence and disappearance of vertices and edges over time-as well as vertex attributes and edge weights, combined with a continuous evolution of these same attributes and weights. To address the discrete behavior, an appropriate algebraic structure for the graph space is proposed; the analysis of its properties shows the existence of a new mathematical structure: a semi-vector space over the field of real numbers, whereas the literature only describes semi-vector spaces over semi-fields. The continuous behavior is modeled by differential equations. To facilitate formal treatment, the graph space is embedded, via a semi-linear mapping, into a new space, called variable-basis space, introduced in this work. The system's evolution model is then formulated within this space-the image of the graph space in the variable-basis space-under the framework of hybrid dynamical systems theory. A general result on the existence of solutions is established. Finally, this framework is applied to model and simulate the dynamics of the gut microbiota under antibiotic treatment followed by bacteriotherapy, where a generalized Lotka-Volterra (gLV) model describes the evolution of species abundances.

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.
