Topological Obstructions to Smoothness for Infinitely Renormalizable Maps of the Disk

چکیده
We analyze the signature type of a cascade of periodic orbits associated to period doubling renormalizable maps of the two dimensional disk. The signature is a sequence of rational numbers which describes how periodic orbits turn each other and is invariant by topological conjugacies that preserve orientation. We prove that in the class of area contracting maps the signature cannot be a monotone sequence. This explains why classical examples of infinitely renormalizable maps due to Bowen, Franks and Young cannot be achieved by smooth dissipative maps showing that there are topological obstructions to realize infinitely renormalizable maps in the area contracting case.

A ug 1 99 1 Quasisymmetric Conjugacies Between Unimodal Maps
It is shown that some topological equivalency classes of S-unimodal maps are equal to quasisymmetric conjugacy classes. This includes some infinitely renormalizable polynomials of unbounded type.
متن کاملPhysical Measures for Infinitely Renormalizable Lorenz Maps
A physical measure on the attractor of a system describes the statistical behavior of typical orbits. An example occurs in unimodal dynamics. Namely, all infinitely renormalizable unimodal maps have a physical measure. For Lorenz dynamics, even in the simple case of infinitely renormalizable systems, the existence of physical measures is more delicate. In this article we construct examples of i...
متن کاملRenormalization in the Hénon Family, Ii: the Heteroclinic Web
We study highly dissipative Hénon maps Fc,b : (x, y) 7→ (c − x 2 − by, x) with zero entropy. They form a region Π in the parameter plane bounded on the left by the curve W of infinitely renormalizable maps. We prove that Morse-Smale maps are dense in Π, but there exist infinitely many different topological types of such maps (even away from W ). We also prove that in the infinitely renormalizab...
متن کاملOn the Quasisymmetrical Classification of Infinitely Renormalizable Maps I. Maps with Feigenbaum's Topology
We begin by considering the set of infinitely renormalizable unimodal maps on the interval [−1, 1]. A function f defined on [−1, 1] is said to be unimodal if it is continuous, increasing on [−1, 0], decreasing on [0, 1] and symmetric about 0, and if it fixes −1 and maps 1 to −1 . Moreover, it is said to be renormalizable if there is an integer n > 1 and a subinterval I 6= [−1, 1] containing 0 s...
متن کاملWhen an Infinitely-renormalizable Endomorphism of the Interval Can Be Smoothed(~)
Let K be a closed subset of a smooth manifold M, and let f : K ! K be a continuous self-map of K. We say that f is smoothable if it is conjugate to the restriction of a smooth map by a homeomorphism of the ambient space M. We give a necessary condition for the smoothability of the faithfully innnitely interval-renormalizable homeomorphisms of Cantor sets in the unit interval. This class contain...
