Transitive limit closures of convex dynamical systems (Q1273433)

This paper is devoted to the study of the limit behaviour of iterations of convex maps or convex relations. The authors are mainly interested in the dynamics of convex relations that first arose from the study of fuzzy control systems using fuzzy convex data. They show that the graphs of powers \(S^k\), \(k=1, 2,\dots\), of a generic convex relation from \(\mathbb{R}^n\) to \(\mathbb{R}^n\) either vansih in a finite number of steps or converge to a rectangular set in \(\mathbb{R}^n\times \mathbb{R}^n\). Consequently, the measure of the class of maps with interesting limit behaviour is zero among all convex maps. The authors nevertheless adress the question of transitivity of limit closures and establish a sufficient condition for transitivity. Moreover they present examples showing that the limit closure of a general compact convex system is not necessarily transitive.
