AbstractWe study invariant measures for a continuous function which maps a real interval into itself. We show that the ratio of the measures of the two subintervals into which it is divided by a fixed point is constrained by the the set of periods of periodic points. As a consequence of this we give a new forcing relation between periodic points.

It is shown how George D. Birkhoff's proof of the Poincaré Birkhoff theorem can be modified using ideas of H. Poincaré to give a rather precise lower bound on the number of components of the set of periodic points of the annulus. Some open problems related to this theorem are discussed.

A one-dimensional Gaussian map defined by a Gaussian function describes a discrete-time dynamical system. Chaotic behavior can be observed in both Gaussian and logistic maps. This study analyzes the bifurcation structure corresponding to the fixed and periodic points of a coupled system comprising two Gaussian maps. The bifurcation structure of a mutually coupled Gaussian map is more complex than that of a mutually coupled logistic map. In a coupled Gaussian map, it was confirmed that after a stable fixed point or stable periodic points became unstable through the bifurcation, the points were able to recover their stability while the system parameters were changing. Moreover, we investigated a parameter region in which symmetric and asymmetric stable fixed points coexisted. Asymmetric unstable fixed point was generated by the [Formula: see text]-type branching of a symmetric stable fixed point. The stability of the unstable fixed point could be recovered through period-doubling and tangent bifurcations. Furthermore, a homoclinic structure related to the occurrence of chaotic behavior and invariant closed curves caused by two-periodic points was observed. The mutually coupled Gaussian map was merely a two-dimensional dynamical system; however, chaotic itinerancy, known to be a characteristic property associated with high-dimensional dynamical systems, was observed. The bifurcation structure of the mutually coupled Gaussian map clearly elucidates the mechanism of chaotic itinerancy generation in the two-dimensional coupled map. We discussed this mechanism by comparing the bifurcation structures of the Gaussian and logistic maps.

AbstractThis article complements the Lorentzian Aubry–Mather Theory in Suhr (Geom Dedicata 160:91–117, 2012; J Fixed Point Theory Appl 21:71, 2019) by giving optimal multiplicity results for the number of maximal invariant measures. As an application the optimal Lipschitz continuity of the time separation on the Abelian cover is established.

This paper is devoted to the study of Ćirić-type non-unique fixed point results in modular metric spaces. We obtain various theorems about a fixed point and periodic points for a self-map on modular spaces which are not necessarily continuous and satisfy certain contractive conditions. Our results extend the results of Ćirić, Pachpatte, and Achari in modular metric spaces.

We introduce the notions of(α-ϕ-ψ)-weaker Meir-Keeler contractive mappings and(α-φ)-stronger Meir-Keeler contractive mappings. We discuss the existence of periodic points in the setting of generalized quasi-metric spaces. Our results improve, extend, and generalize several results in the literature.

Let I be the unit interval [0, 1] of the real line. For integers k ≥ 1 and n ≥ 2, we construct simple piecewise monotonic expanding maps Fk, n in C0 (I, I) with the following three properties: (1) The positive integer n is an expanding constant for Fk, n for all k; (2) The topological entropy of Fk, n is greater than or equal to log n for all k; (3) Fk, n has periodic points of least period 2k · 3, but no periodic point of least period 2k−1 (2m+1) for any positive integer m. This is in contrast to the fact that there are expanding (but not piecewise monotonic) maps in C0(I, I) with very large expanding constants which have exactly one fixed point, say, at x = 1, but no other periodic point.

AbstractUsing a recent modified version of the Poincaré-Birkhoff fixed point theorem [19], we study the existence of one-signed T-periodic solutions and sign-changing subharmonic solutions to the second order scalar ODEu′′ + f (t, u) = 0,being f : ℝ × ℝ → ℝ a continuous function T-periodic in the first variable and such that f (t, 0) ≡ 0. Partial extensions of the results to a general planar Hamiltonian systems are given, as well.
