Let E be an elliptic curve defined over Q given by an affine Weierstrass equation of the form (1) E : y = x + ax + b (a, b ∈ Z, x, y ∈ Q). Reducing the elliptic curve (1) modulo a sufficiently large prime p, we obtain an elliptic curve Ẽp over Fp. Considering an infinite sequence of elliptic curves Ẽp, we map the point (x, y) of them into the unit square [0, 1) via the mapping (x, y) 7→ ( x p ,...

Roth, Samuel Joshua PhD, Purdue University, May 2015. Ergodic Properties of Countable Extensions. Major Professor: Micha l Misiurewicz. First, we study countably piecewise continuous, piecewise monotone interval maps. We establish a necessary and sufficient criterion for the existence of a non-decreasing semiconjugacy to an interval map of constant slope in terms of the existence of an eigenvec...

We consider piecewise monotone interval mappings which are topologically mixing and satisfy the Markov property. It has previously been shown that the invariant densities of the natural approximations converge exponentially fast in uniform pointwise topology to the invariant density of the given map provided its derivative is piecewise Lipshitz continuous. We provide an example of a map which i...

A general theory of resource-bounded measurability and measure is developed. Starting from any feasible probability measure ν on the Cantor space C (the set of all decision problems) and any suitable complexity class C ⊆ C, the theory identifies the subsets of C that are ν-measurable in C and assigns measures to these sets, thereby endowing C with internal measure-theoretic structure. Classes C...

Moody, P. J. and A. W. Roscoe, Acyclic monotone normality, Topology and its Applications 47 (1992) 53-67. A space X is acyclic monotonically normal if it has a monotonically normal operator M(., .) such that for distinct points x,,, ,x._, in X and x, =x,], n::i M(x,, X\{x,+,}) = (d. It is a property which arises from the study of monotone normality and the condition “chain (F)“. In this paper i...
