We consider perturbations of normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds, under which they can lose their hyperbolic properties. We show that if the perturbed map which drives the dynamical system preserves the properties of topological expansion and contraction, then the manifold is perturbed to an invariant set. The main feature is that our results do not require the rate conditions to hold after the

Abelian integrals appear in mathematical descriptions of various physical processes. According to Abel’s theorem these integrals are related to motion of a set of points along a plane curve around fixed points, which are rarely used in physical applications.

A global attractor is the minimal set that attracts all bounded sets; it contains all forward-time limit points. Our approach uses (generalised) Lyapunov functions to find attracting sets, which must contain the global attractor, and the choice of Lyapunov function is optimised based

Since techniques used to address the Nivat’s conjecture usually rely on Morse–Hedlund theorem, an improved version of this classical result may mean a new step towards a proof for the conjecture. In this paper, considering an alphabetical version of the Morse–Hedlund theorem, we show that, for a configuration ##IMG## [http://ej.iop.org/images/0951-7715/33/7/3620/nonab7638ieqn1.gif] {$\eta \in {A}^ 更新日期：2020-06-01 • Nonlinearity (IF 1.505) Pub Date : 2020-06-01 Marco Antonio López In the present work we establish a Bowen-type formula for the Hausdorff dimension of shrinking target sets for non-autonomous conformal iterated function systems in arbitrary dimensions and satisfying certain conditions. In the case of dimension 1 we also investigate non-linear perturbations of linear systems and obtain sufficient conditions under which the perturbed systems satisfy the conditions 更新日期：2020-06-01 • Nonlinearity (IF 1.505) Pub Date : 2020-05-28 Stavros Komineas, Christof Melcher and Stephanos Venakides Chiral skyrmions are stable particle-like solutions of the Landau–Lifshitz equation for ferromagnets with the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction, characterized by a topological number. We study the profile of an axially symmetric skyrmion and give exact formulae for the solution of the corresponding far-field and near-field equations, in the asymptotic limit of small DM parameter (alternatively 更新日期：2020-05-28 • Nonlinearity (IF 1.505) Pub Date : 2020-05-28 Luis Barreira and Carllos Holanda We introduce a version of the nonadditive topological pressure for flows and we describe some of its main properties. In particular, we discuss how the nonadditive topological pressure varies with the data and we establish a variational principle in terms of the Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy. We also consider corresponding capacity topological pressures.

We prove that a class of partially hyperbolic attractors introduced by Castro and Nascimento have unique equilibrium states for natural classes of potentials. We also show if the attractors are C 2 and have invariant stable and centre-unstable foliations, then there is a unique equilibrium state for the geometric potential and its 1-parameter family. We do this by applying general techniques developed
