Classification of Cherry transformations on a circumference and Cherry flows on a torus (Q677717): Difference between revisions

On the torus \(T^2\), it is known an analytic flow (Cherry flow) with nowhere dense invariant set \(\Omega\), where there are everywhere dense, non-closed Poisson stable trajectories and semitrajectories. In addition, \(\Omega\) is an attractor (repeller), contains a finite nonzero number of equilibria which are hyperbolic saddles and, except for these equilibria, is locally homeomorphic to the direct product of the Cantor set and a segment. On a closed curve, non-homotopic to zero and transversal to the vector field, the Cherry flow induces the Poincaré return mapping (Cherry transformation) without periodic orbits (with irrational number of rotation) with intervals of steadiness and discontinuity points. In recent years, Cherry flows and Cherry transformations received much study. In the paper the problem of the topological conjugacy of Cherry flows on a torus and Cherry transformations of a circumference are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions for Cherry transformations (Cherry flows) to be conjugated are found. Some results on the semiconjugacy of Cherry flows and Cherry transformations with rotations are obtained.
