Analytic foliations and center problem

Measure-theoretical Properties of Center Foliations

Center foliations of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms may exhibit pathological behavior from a measure-theoretical viewpoint: quite often, the disintegration of the ambient volume measure along the center leaves consists of atomic measures. We add to this theory by constructing stable examples for which the disintegration is singular without being atomic. In the context of diffeomorphisms w...

Analytic center of spherical shells and its application to analytic center machine

The two-case pattern recognition problem aims to find the best way of linearly separate two different classes of data points with a good generalization performance. In the context of learning machines proposed to solve the pattern recognition problem, the analytic center machine (ACM) uses the analytic center cutting plane method restricted to spherical shells. In this work we prove existence a...

The Problem of Distinguishing between a Center and a Focus for Nilpotent and Degenerate Analytic Systems

In this work we study the centers of planar analytic vector fields which are limit of linear type centers. It is proved that all the nilpotent centers are limit of linear type centers and consequently the Poincaré–Liapunov method to find linear type centers can be also used to find the nilpotent centers. Moreover, we show that the degenerate centers which are limit of linear type centers are al...
