Linear response for intermittent maps with summable and nonsummable decay of correlations

This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from IOP Publishing via the DOI in this record.We consider a family of Pomeau-Manneville type interval maps Tα, parametrized by α ∈ (0, 1), with the unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measures να, and rate of correlations decay n 1−1/α. We show that despite the absence of a spectral gap for all α ∈ (0, 1) and despite nonsummable correlations for α ≥ 1/2, the map α 7→ R ϕ dνα is continuously differentiable for ϕ ∈ L q [0, 1] for q sufficiently large.This research was supported in part by a European Advanced Grant StochExtHomog (ERC AdG 320977)

Multidimensional analogs of geometric s<-->t duality

The usual propetry of st duality for scattering amplitudes, e.g. for Veneziano amplitude, is deeply connected with the 2-dimensional geometry. In particular, a simple geometric construction of such amplitudes was proposed in a joint work by this author and S.Saito (solv-int/9812016). Here we propose analogs of one of those amplitudes associated with multidimensional euclidean spaces, paying most attention to the 3-dimensional case. Our results can be regarded as a variant of "Regge calculus" intimately connected with ideas of the theory of integrable models.Comment: LaTeX2e, pictures using emlines.

Averaging and rates of averaging for uniform families of deterministic fast-slow skew product systems

We consider families of fast-slow skew product maps of the form \begin{align*} x_{n+1} = x_n+\epsilon a(x_n,y_n,\epsilon), \quad y_{n+1} = T_\epsilon y_n, \end{align*} where $T_\epsilon$ is a family of nonuniformly expanding maps, and prove averaging and rates of averaging for the slow variables $x$ as $\epsilon\to0$. Similar results are obtained also for continuous time systems \begin{align*} \dot x = \epsilon a(x,y,\epsilon), \quad \dot y = g_\epsilon(y). \end{align*} Our results include cases where the family of fast dynamical systems consists of intermittent maps, unimodal maps (along the Collet-Eckmann parameters) and Viana maps.Comment: Shortened version. First order averaging moved into a remark. Explicit coupling argument moved into a separate not

A matrix solution to pentagon equation with anticommuting variables

We construct a solution to pentagon equation with anticommuting variables living on two-dimensional faces of tetrahedra. In this solution, matrix coordinates are ascribed to tetrahedron vertices. As matrix multiplication is noncommutative, this provides a "more quantum" topological field theory than in our previous works

Geometric torsions and an Atiyah-style topological field theory

The construction of invariants of three-dimensional manifolds with a triangulated boundary, proposed earlier by the author for the case when the boundary consists of not more than one connected component, is generalized to any number of components. These invariants are based on the torsion of acyclic complexes of geometric origin. The relevant tool for studying our invariants turns out to be F.A. Berezin's calculus of anti-commuting variables; in particular, they are used in the formulation of the main theorem of the paper, concerning the composition of invariants under a gluing of manifolds. We show that the theory obeys a natural modification of M. Atiyah's axioms for anti-commuting variables.Comment: 15 pages, English translation (with minor corrections) of the Russian version.

Spatial structure of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measures

This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from Elsevier via the DOI in this record.Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measures are the only physically observable invariant measures for billiard dynamical systems under small perturbations. These measures are singular, but as it was observed, marginal distributions of spatial and angular coordinates are absolutely continuous. We generalize these facts and provide full mathematical proofs.The authors are partially supported by NSF grant DMS-096918

Quantum 2+1 evolution model

A quantum evolution model in 2+1 discrete space - time, connected with 3D fundamental map R, is investigated. Map R is derived as a map providing a zero curvature of a two dimensional lattice system called "the current system". In a special case of the local Weyl algebra for dynamical variables the map appears to be canonical one and it corresponds to known operator-valued R-matrix. The current system is a kind of the linear problem for 2+1 evolution model. A generating function for the integrals of motion for the evolution is derived with a help of the current system. The subject of the paper is rather new, and so the perspectives of further investigations are widely discussed.Comment: LaTeX, 37page

Ground states of Heisenberg evolution operator in discrete three-dimensional space-time and quantum discrete BKP equations

In this paper we consider three-dimensional quantum q-oscillator field theory without spectral parameters. We construct an essentially big set of eigenstates of evolution with unity eigenvalue of discrete time evolution operator. All these eigenstates belong to a subspace of total Hilbert space where an action of evolution operator can be identified with quantized discrete BKP equations (synonym Miwa equations). The key ingredients of our construction are specific eigenstates of a single three-dimensional R-matrix. These eigenstates are boundary states for hidden three-dimensional structures of U_q(B_n^1) and U_q(D_n^1)$.Comment: 13 page

Rates in almost sure invariance principle for nonuniformly hyperbolic maps

We prove the Almost Sure Invariance Principle (ASIP) with close to optimal error rates for nonuniformly hyperbolic maps. We do not assume exponential contraction along stable leaves, therefore our result covers in particular slowly mixing invertible dynamical systems as Bunimovich flowers, billiards with flat points as in Chernov and Zhang (2005) and Wojtkowski' (1990) system of two falling balls. For these examples, the ASIP is a new result, not covered by prior works for various reasons, notably because in absence of exponential contraction along stable leaves, it is challenging to employ the so-called Sinai's trick (Sinai 1972, Bowen 1975) of reducing a nonuniformly hyperbolic system to a nonuniformly expanding one. Our strategy follows our previous papers on the ASIP for nonuniformly expanding maps, where we build a semiconjugacy to a specific renewal Markov shift and adapt the argument of Berkes, Liu and Wu (2014). The main difference is that now the Markov shift is two-sided, the observables depend on the full trajectory, both the future and the past
