Emergent behaviors of the singular continuum Kuramoto model and its graph limit

Abstract

We study the emergent dynamics of the singular continuum Kuramoto model (in short, SCKM) and its graph limit. The SCKM takes the form of an integro-differential equation exhibiting two types of nonlocal singularities: a nonlocal singular interaction weight and a nonlocal singular alignment force. The natural frequency function determines the emergent dynamics of the SCKM, and we emphasize that singularity plays a crucial role in the occurrence of sticking phenomena. For the identical natural frequency function, we derive the complete phase synchronization in finite time under a suitable set of conditions for system parameters and initial data. In contrast, for a nonidentical natural frequency function, we show the emergence of practical synchronization, meaning that the phase diameter is proportional to the inverse of coupling strength asymptotically. Furthermore, we rigorously establish a graph limit from the singular Kuramoto model with a finite system size to the SCKM. We also provide several numerical simulations to illustrate our theoretical results.

Effective equidistribution of orbits under semisimple groups on congruence quotients

We prove an effective equidistribution result for periodic orbits of semisimple groups on congruence quotients of an ambient semisimple group.This extends a previous work of Einsiedler, Margulis and Venkatesh. The main new feature is that we allow for periodic orbits of semisimple groups with nontrivial centralizer in the ambient group. Our proof uses crucially an effective closing lemma from work of the author with Lindenstrauss, Margulis,Mohammadi, and Shah.

Generalized entropy of measure-induced maps

A classical result by E. Glasner and B. Weiss states that the topological entropy of a map $f$ is zero if and only if the topological entropy of its measure-induced map $f_*$ is zero, where $f_*$ is defined as the push-forward of a measure. In this work, we use generalized entropy to distinguish the complexity of these maps and prove that the measure-induced map is much more complex than the original map. Moreover, we introduce the generalized mean dimension, an invariant that is useful for distinguishing dynamical systems with zero mean dimension, including those with the small-boundary property, and we show a relationship between this new invariant and generalized entropy.

The endpoint problem for $\varepsilon$-hypercyclicity

For a fixed $0<\varepsilon<1$, F. Bayart asked in 2024 whether there exists an operator $T$ such that, for every $0<δ<1$, $T$ is $δ$-hypercyclic if and only if $δ\in[\varepsilon,1)$. We answer this question affirmatively by constructing a weighted backward shift on $\ell_2(\mathbb N_0,\ell_2(\mathbb N_0))$ with this property.
