Topological dynamics for monotone skew-product semiflows with applications (Q2439764): Difference between revisions

Some flow extension results are established -- via topological dynamics techniques -- for linearly stable minimal sets in monotone differentiable skew-product semiflows. In Section 2, the authors introduce the basic results and concepts to be used further. The objective of Section 3 is to establish a flow extension statement on a linearly stable minmal set \(K\subseteq \Omega\times X\) for certain semiflows \(\tau\). Namely, assume that the base flow on \(\Omega\) is minimal and distal and the semiflow \(\tau\) is of class \(C^2\) in \(x\) and monotone. Further, let \(K\subseteq \Omega\times X\) be a minimal set with: (i) there exists \(T> 0\) such that \(u_x(T,\omega,x)\) is compact and strongly positive for any \((\omega,x)\in K\), (ii) \(K\) is linearly stable. Then, \(K\) admits a flow extension. In Section 4, the almost automorphic dynamics is studied in almost periodic equations. Precisely, suppose that (j) the semiflow is defined by ordinary and parabolic differential equations, (jj) the restriction of \(\tau\) to \(K\subseteq \Omega\times X\) gives rise to a minimal flow, (jjj) the constant matrix defined by the superior on \(K\) of partial derivatives of the vector field with respect to the \(R^n\)-variables is irreducible. Then, there exists \(T> 0\) such that \(u_x(T,\omega,x)\) is strongly positive for any \((\omega,x)\in K\), and \(K\) admits a continuous separation. In Section 5, the abstract version of the above mentioned behavior is discussed. Finally, Section 6 is devoted to an extension of certain statements in Section 3 and Section 4.
