Pluripotency of wandering dynamics

Abstract

This paper isolates a perturbative mechanism, which we call \emph{pluripotency}, by which the symbolic and statistical behavior of prescribed orbits in a uniformly hyperbolic set can be realized, after an arbitrarily small perturbation, along the forward orbits of all points in a set of positive Lebesgue measure. In this sense, pluripotency provides a way of reprogramming dynamics from both statistical and geometric viewpoints: the empirical measures of all points in a positive-measure set can be made to asymptotically follow those of a prescribed orbit in the hyperbolic set. We first give an abstract criterion, formulated in terms of symbolic itinerary descriptions, which is equivalent to a strong form of pluripotency. We then prove that this mechanism occurs robustly in higher-dimensional non-hyperbolic dynamics. More precisely, for every $2\le r<\infty$ and $\dim M\ge 3$, there exists a $C^r$-open set of diffeomorphisms with wild blender-horseshoes such that every diffeomorphism in this open set is strongly pluripotent for a dense invariant subset of the blender-horseshoe. As applications, this yields dense classes of diffeomorphisms with non-trivial Dirac physical measures and with historic wandering domains inside the same open set, providing a new mechanism related to Takens' last problem.

Asymmetry of a class of Mellin transforms

We introduce the quantity $μ_η$, defined for every complex $s$ in the critical strip, as a transformation of the Mellin transform associated to the functions $η$. We establish a sufficient condition on $η$ under which $μ_η(s)$ and $μ_η(1-s)$ cannot both vanish outside the critical line. An application is given to the case in which $η$ is the fractional part function, and the zeros of $μ_η$ coincide with the zeros of the Riemann zeta function.

Infinite Set of Resonances in the Linear Damped Oscillator Subject to Harmonic Forcing with Non-standard Frequency Modulation

It is shown that harmonic signals incorporating a type of weak non-standard frequency modulation (wNSFM) have interesting spectral properties, namely, time-dependent bandwidths that become increasingly broader with increasing time. As such, they represent a class of signals with frequency-time coupling in their spectra. Specifically, the weakly damped oscillator exhibits always two transient resonance captures involving two distinct harmonics possessing relatively high amplitudes over finite time intervals, while the overall response decays as $~t^{-1/2}$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$. Considering the undamped oscillator, it possesses two types of resonances, referred to as simple and non-simple resonances. Simple resonances correspond to finite-amplitude steady-state responses caused by two sustained resonance captures, in the form of two distinct modulated quasi-periodic responses, which, however are "activated" at different time instances. The necessary and sufficient conditions for non-simple resonances are given in the form of a theorem which predicts the existence of resonant harmonics and specifies the special phase conditions that the resonant harmonics must satisfy for constructive interference; the resulting undamped non-simple resonance grows unboundedly as $~t^{-1/2}$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$, in contrast to the classical resonance growth of the linear resonator with unmodulated harmonic excitation whose response grows as $~t$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$. These resonant responses are persistent to changes in the parameters of the wNSFM. Our results reveal interesting infinite sets of resonances in linear SDOF resonators under frequency-modulated excitations.
