Introduction to Dynamical Systems Introduction to Genericity Students' Course: Introduction to Dynamical systems introduction to Genericity September 19, 2007 1 Genericity Generic property is a way to formulate typical property, one that characterize most functions in some function space. But before we can handle this formal de¯nition we need to discus few terms. De¯nition 1.1 (Topology) Let a set ­ and a collection T of subsets of ­ satisfying the following axioms: 1. ; 2 T , ­ 2 T . S 2. 8®; A® 2 T ! ® A® 2 T . (arbitrary union) 3. A; B 2 ­ ! A \ B 2 T . (¯nite intersection) The collection T is called a topology on ­, the elements of X are called points. Under this de¯nition, the sets in T are the open sets, and their complements in X are the closed sets. A topology induced by a metric, jj ¢ jj, is such, that every open set is a union of open balls de¯ned using the metric: Br(x) = fy 2 ­ : jjx ¡ yjj < rg (1.1) Hence, any metric space has a topology. Back to dynamical systems, vector ¯elds can be described as functions in the space Cr(M; N) (i.e., map f : M ! N, where f and its ¯rst r derivatives are continuous.). Two elements of Cr(M; N) are Ck "-close (k · r) if the functions and its k derivatives are "-close in some norm. Notice that if the manifolds N; M are Rn, this de¯nition is not well de¯ned as the domain is unbounded, and the behavior at in¯nity should be considered, which explain why most of the time we see a discussion on compact phase space. 1 De¯nition 1.2 (Cr-Topology) The topology on the Cr function space with a metric that takes into account the function and its ¯rst r derivatives is called Cr-topology. So in fact, we are looking at the function space as a metric space, however, we refer it as a topology since we are not interested in properties emerging from the metric itself, but rather in the topology induced by this metric. De¯nition 1.3 (Dense Set) A subset, E ½ F ½ ­ is called dense in F if it closure, E¹, satisfy E¹ \ F = F . When E is referred as dense, F = ­. The space Cr(M; R) is Baire space ([1]), hence any residual set is dense. This property of the function space is what makes generic property "typical". However, dense alone is not su±cient as we know in the reals, rationals are dense but also there compliment, the irrationals, is dense. Therefore, dense it not typical, as only one of them can be typical (and we know that there are much more irrationals than rationals.). So we turn to additional de¯nition. De¯nition 1.4 (Residual Set) T Let R ½ ­, it is called residual if there is a countable collection fGngn2N s.t., R = n2N Gn, where Gn are open and dense in ­. (It complement is called meager). De¯nition 1.5 (Baire Space) If ­ has a dense residual subset ­ is called Baire space. De¯nition 1.6 (Generic) A property is generic in Cr if the set holding this property contain a residual subset in the Cr-topology. Proposition 1.7 Cr(M; Rn) is a Bair space. Proof: First lets show that Cr(M; Rn) countable collection of open and dense subsets. Theorem 1.8 hyperbolic ¯xed points are generic. Applied meaning Why we should be interested in generic properties ? in applied math- ematics, especially in modelling, we build a mathematical model, but we have uncertainty regarding to the values of its parameters. Thus, we usually estimate the parameters from some real data, but estimates are only that, so if we know that a property we found in the analysis of the model is generic, we know that if we have some error in the parameter estimation the qualitative property will still hold. One last note, generic property can be eliminated when we have special symmetry. References [1] J. Palis and W. de Melo. Geometric Theory of Dynamics Systems. Springer-Verlag, 1980. 2.

  • Generic Global Rigidity in Complex and Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces 3
    GENERIC GLOBAL RIGIDITY IN COMPLEX AND PSEUDO-EUCLIDEAN SPACES STEVEN J. GORTLER AND DYLAN P. THURSTON Abstract. In this paper we study the property of generic global rigidity for frameworks of graphs embedded in d-dimensional complex space and in a d-dimensional pseudo- Euclidean space (Rd with a metric of indefinite signature). We show that a graph is generically globally rigid in Euclidean space iff it is generically globally rigid in a complex or pseudo-Euclidean space. We also establish that global rigidity is always a generic property of a graph in complex space, and give a sufficient condition for it to be a generic property in a pseudo-Euclidean space. Extensions to hyperbolic space are also discussed. 1. Introduction The property of generic global rigidity of a graph in d-dimensional Euclidean space has recently been fully characterized [4, 7]. It is quite natural to study this property in other spaces as well. For example, recent work of Owen and Jackson [8] has studied the number of equivalent realizations of frameworks in C2. In this paper we study the property of generic global rigidity of graphs embedded in Cd as well as graphs embedded in a pseudo Euclidean space (Rd equipped with an indefinite metric signature). We show that a graph Γ is generically globally rigid (GGR) in d-dimensional Euclidean space iff Γ is GGR in d-dimensional complex space. Moreover, for any metric signature, s, We show that a graph Γ is GGR in d-dimensional Euclidean space iff Γ is GGR in d- dimensional real space under the signature s.

  • Lids-R-904 Robust Stability of Linear Systems
    LIDS-R-904 ROBUST STABILITY OF LINEAR SYSTEMS - SOME COMPUTATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS* by Alan J. Laub** 1. INTRODUCTION In this paper we shall concentrate on some of the computational issues which arise in studying the robust stability of linear systems. Insofar as possible, we shall use notation consistent with Stein's paper [11 and we shall make frequent reference to that work. As we saw in [1] a basic stability question for a linear time-invariant system with transfer matrix G(s) is the following: given that a nominal closed-loop feedbadk system is stable, does the feedback system remain stable when subjected to perturbations and how large can those perturba- tions be? It turned out, through invocation of the Nyquist Criterion, that the size of the allowable perturbations was related to the "nearness to singularity" of the return difference matrix I + G(jW). Closed-loop stability was said to be "robust" if G could tolerate considerable perturbation before I + G became singular. Invited Paper presented at the Second Annual Workshop on the Informa- tion Linkage between Applied Mathematics and Industry held at Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California, Feb. 20-24, 1979; this research was partially supported by NASA under grant NGL-22-009-124 and the Department of Energy under grant ET-78-(01-3395). ** Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems, Pm. 35-331, M.I.T., Cambridge, MA 02139. -2- We shall now indulge in a modicum of abstraction and attempt to formalize the notion of robustness. The definition will employ some jargon from algebraic geometry and will be applicable to a variety of situations.

GENERIC CONTINUOUS FUNCTIONS AND OTHER STRANGE FUNCTIONS IN CLASSICAL REAL ANALYSIS by Douglas A. Woolley Under the direction of Mihaly Bakonyi ABSTRACT In this paper we examine continuous functions which on the surface seem to defy well-known mathematical principles. Before describing these functions, we introduce the Baire Cate- gory theorem and the Cantor set, which are critical in describing some of the functions and counterexamples. We then describe generic continuous functions, which are nowhere differ- entiable and monotone on no interval, and we include an example of such a function. We then construct a more conceptually challenging function, one which is everywhere differen- tiable but monotone on no interval. We also examine the Cantor function, a nonconstant continuous function with a zero derivative almost everywhere. The final section deals with products of derivatives.

These conjectures predict a classification of all sufficiently complex, that is, non-locally modular, strongly minimal structures which can be interpreted from such fields. Such problems have been historically divided into `lower dimensional' and `higher dimen- sional' cases; this thesis is devoted to a number of partial results in the higher dimensional cases. In particular, in ACF0 and over o-minimal fields, we prove that all higher dimensional strongly minimal structures whose definable sets satisfy certain geometric restrictions are locally modular. We also make progress toward verifying these geometric restrictions in any counterexample. Finally, in the last chapter we give a full proof of local modularity for strongly minimal expansions of higher dimensional groups in ACF0. i To Katrina and Justin ii Contents Contents ii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Historical Background . 1 1.2 The Challenge of Working in Higher Dimensions . 3 1.3 Outline of Results . 5 2 Preliminaries on Strongly Minimal Sets 7 2.1 Strong Minimality and Dimension .

  • CHARACTERIZING GENERIC GLOBAL RIGIDITY 1. Introduction In
    CHARACTERIZING GENERIC GLOBAL RIGIDITY STEVEN J. GORTLER, ALEXANDER D. HEALY, AND DYLAN P. THURSTON d Abstract. A d-dimensional framework is a graph and a map from its vertices to E . d Such a framework is globally rigid if it is the only framework in E with the same graph and edge lengths, up to rigid motions. For which underlying graphs is a generic framework globally rigid? We answer this question by proving a conjecture by Connelly, that his sufficient condition is also necessary. The condition comes from considering the geometry of the length-squared mapping `; essentially, the graph is generically locally rigid iff the rank of ` is maximal, and it is generically globally rigid iff the rank of the Gauss map on the image of ` is maximal. We also show that this condition is efficiently checkable with a randomized algorithm. 1. Introduction In this paper we characterize those generic frameworks which are globally rigid in d- dimensional Euclidean space. We do this by proving a conjecture of Connelly [8], who described a sufficient condition for generic frameworks to be globally rigid, and conjectured that this condition was necessary. As the truth of this condition depends only on the graph and the dimension d, and not on the specific framework of that graph, we can conclude that generic global rigidity in Ed is a property of a graph. We further show that this property can be checked in probabilistic polynomial time. Global rigidity has applications in chemistry, where various technologies measure inter- atomic distances. From this data one may try to infer the geometry of the configuration [9, inter alia].

  • On the Generic Low-Rank Matrix Completion
    On the Generic Low-Rank Matrix Completion Yuan Zhang, Yuanqing Xia∗, Hongwei Zhang, Gang Wang, and Li Dai Abstract—This paper investigates the low-rank matrix com- where the matrix to be completed consists of spatial coordi- pletion (LRMC) problem from a generic vantage point. Unlike nates and temporal (frame) indices [9, 10]. most existing work that has focused on recovering a low-rank matrix from a subset of the entries with specified values, the The holy grail of the LRMC is that, the essential information only information available here is just the pattern (i.e., positions) of a low-rank matrix could be contained in a small subset of of observed entries. To be precise, given is an n × m pattern matrix (n ≤ m) whose entries take fixed zero, unknown generic entries. Therefore, there is a chance to complete a matrix from values, and missing values that are free to be chosen from the a few observed entries [5, 11, 12]. complex field, the question of interest is whether there is a matrix completion with rank no more than n − k (k ≥ 1) for almost all Thanks to the widespread applications of LRMC in di- values of the unknown generic entries, which is called the generic verse fields, many LRMC techniques have been developed low-rank matrix completion (GLRMC) associated with (M,k), [4, 5, 8, 12–16]; see [11, 17] for related survey. Since the rank and abbreviated as GLRMC(M,k). Leveraging an elementary constraint is nonconvex, the minimum rank matrix completion tool from the theory on systems of polynomial equations, we give a simple proof for genericity of this problem, which was first (MRMC) problem which asks for the minimum rank over observed by Kirly et al., that is, depending on the pattern of the all possible matrix completions, is NP-hard [4].

The intrinsic locality of the approach allows for the treatment of single entries in a closed theoretical and practical framework. More specifically, apart from introducing an algebraic combinatorial theory of low-rank matrix completion, we present probability- one algorithms to decide whether a particular entry of the matrix can be completed. We also describe methods to complete that entry from a few others, and to estimate the error which is incurred by any method completing that entry. Furthermore, we show how known results on matrix completion and their sampling assumptions can be related to our new perspective and interpreted in terms of a completability phase transition.1 Keywords: Low-rank matrix completion, entry-wise completion, matrix reconstruction, algebraic combinatorics ∗.

  • Semi-Regular Sequences and Other Random Systems of Equations
    SEMI-REGULAR SEQUENCES AND OTHER RANDOM SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS M. BIGDELI, E. DE NEGRI, M. M. DIZDAREVIC, E. GORLA, R. MINKO, AND S. TSAKOU Abstract. The security of multivariate cryptosystems and digital signature schemes relies on the hardness of solving a system of polynomial equations over a finite field. Polynomial system solving is also currently a bottleneck of index-calculus algorithms to solve the elliptic and hyperelliptic curve discrete logarithm problem. The complexity of solving a system of polynomial equations is closely related to the cost of computing Gr¨obnerbases, since computing the solutions of a polynomial system can be reduced to finding a lexicographic Gr¨obner basis for the ideal generated by the equations. Several algorithms for computing such bases exist: We consider those based on repeated Gaussian elimination of Macaulay matrices. In this paper, we analyze the case of random systems, where random systems means either semi-regular systems, or quadratic systems in n variables which contain a regular sequence of n polynomials. We provide explicit formulae for bounds on the solving degree of semi-regular systems with m > n equations in n variables, for equations of arbitrary degrees for m = n + 1, and for any m for systems of quadratic or cubic polynomials. In the appendix, we provide a table of bounds for the solving degree of semi-regular systems of m = n + k quadratic equations in n variables for 2 ≤ k; n ≤ 100 and online we provide the values of the bounds for 2 ≤ k; n ≤ 500. For quadratic systems which contain a regular sequence of n polynomials, we argue that the Eisenbud-Green-Harris conjecture, if true, provides a sharp bound for their solving degree, which we compute explicitly.
