Lifetime and Illness in Almost Deterministic Maps

Lifetime and Illness in Almost Deterministic Maps

This paper presents a completely new approach to analysing the effect of stochasticity upon the stability of sets in deterministic maps. Such stability is quantified via the definition of an expected lifetime. More relevant to dynamical systems modelling is the case where the stochasticity is small; the almost deterministic case. Formal arguments are employed to quantify the illness, through wh...

Automatic continuity of almost multiplicative maps between Frechet algebras

For Fr$acute{mathbf{text{e}}}$chet algebras $(A, (p_n))$ and $(B, (q_n))$, a linear map $T:Arightarrow B$ is textit{almost multiplicative} with respect to $(p_n)$ and $(q_n)$, if there exists $varepsilongeq 0$ such that $q_n(Tab - Ta Tb)leq varepsilon p_n(a) p_n(b),$ for all $n in mathbb{N}$, $a, b in A$, and it is called textit{weakly almost multiplicative} with respect to $(p_n)$ and $(q_n)$...

Close operator algebras and almost multiplicative maps

where A,B ⊂ B(H), and the distance between A⊗Mn and B ⊗Mn is measured in B(H) ⊗ Mn ∼= B(H). We also investigate the consequences of “complete closeness”, i.e. what can be said when dcb(A,B) is small? For example, if dcb(A,B) is small, then any projection p ∈ A ⊗ Mn can be suitably approximated by a projection q ∈ B ⊗ Mn, leading an isomorphism K0(A) → K0(B) which maps [p]0 to [q]0. This strateg...

Homogenization for Deterministic Maps and Multiplicative Noise

A recent paper of Melbourne & Stuart, A note on diffusion limits of chaotic skew product flows, Nonlinearity 24 (2011) 1361–1367, gives a rigorous proof of convergence of a fast-slow deterministic system to a stochastic differential equation with additive noise. In contrast to other approaches, the assumptions on the fast flow are very mild. In this paper, we extend this result from continuous ...
