Abstract

We derive the bifurcation set for a not previously considered three-parametric Bogdanov-Takens unfolding, showing that it is possible express its vector field as two different perturbed cubic Hamiltonians. By using several first-order Melnikov functions, we obtain for the first time analytical approximations for the bifurcation curves corresponding to homoclinic and heteroclinic connections, which along with the curves associated to local bifurcations organize the parametric regions with different structures of periodic orbits. As an application of these results, we study a family of 3D memristor oscillators, for which the characteristic function of the memristor is a cubic polynomial. We show that these systems have an infinity number of invariant manifolds, and by adding one parameter that stratifies the 3D dynamics of the family, it is shown that the dynamics in each stratum is topologically equivalent to a representant of the above unfolding. Also, based upon the bifurcation set obtained, we show the existence of closed surfaces in the 3D state space which are foliated by periodic orbits. Finally, we clarify some misconceptions that arise from the numerical simulations of these systems, emphasizing the important role played by the existence of invariant manifolds.

Measures of maximal entropy for $C^\infty$ three-dimensional flows

We prove that every $C^\infty$ non-singular flow with positive entropy on a compact three-dimensional manifold without boundary admits finitely many ergodic measures of maximal entropy. This result extends the notable work of Buzzi-Crovisier-Sarig (\emph{Ann. of Math.}, 2022) on surface diffeomorphisms. Our approach differs by addressing the continuity of Lyapunov exponents and the uniform largeness of Pesin sets for measures of maximal entropy. Furthermore, it provides an alternative proof for the case of surface diffeomorphisms.

Multistationarity in semi-open Phosphorylation-Dephosphorylation Cycles

Multistationarity underlies biochemical switching and cellular decision-making. We study how multistationarity in the sequential $n$-site phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle is affected when only some species are open, meaning allowed to exchange with the environment (so-called semi-open networks). Working under mass action kinetics, we obtain two complementary structural results for $n\geq$2. First, opening any nonempty subset of the substrate species preserves the network's capacity for nondegenerate multistationarity. Second, opening the enzyme species (both kinase and phosphatase), possibly together with any subset of substrates, always destroys multistationarity. The latter result is proved by a general reduction framework combining the detection of absolute concentration robustness (ACR) with projection onto the remaining species; when the projection produces a monostationary network, the full semi-open system is monostationary. We also illustrate the general method on multi-layer cascade variants and discuss biological implications.

Propagation of regularity along unstable manifolds

Let $φ_t : M \to M$ be a flow on a smooth closed connected manifold $M$ that preserves and expands a foliation $F$. We establish a theorem of propagation of regularity along the leaves of $F$ for sections of vector bundles satisfying a transport equation involving the generator of a cocycle over $φ_t$. As a consequence, we prove a regularity result for Pollicott-Ruelle resonant states: if such state is smooth in restriction to a piece of an unstable leaf, then it is in fact smooth over the entire manifold. We also announce further applications related to joint integrability of extreme bundles of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. The proofs rely on a leafwise semiclassical pseudodifferential calculus adapted to a foliated space, which may be of independent interest.
