Sure event problem in multicomponent dynamical systems with attractive interaction (Q2202855)

This paper studies sure event problem of a limit fixed point under a mapping \(*\) in multi-component dynamical systems with attractive interaction. The coordinates of two vectors \(p=(p_1,\dots,p_n)\) and \(r=(r_1,\dots,r_n)\) have the meaning of probabilities of stay of the opponents in a space \(\Omega=(\omega_1,\dots,\omega_n)\). For \(p,r\) in the simplex \(\Delta^{n-1}\) and \((p,r)\not=0\), it is shown that there is a decomposition of \(\Omega\) as \(\Omega=\Omega_0\cup\Omega_+\), where \(\Omega_0=\{\omega_k:p_k^{\infty}=r_k^{\infty}=0\}\) and \(\Omega_+=\{\omega_i:p_i^{\infty}=r_i^{\infty}>0\}\). For any pair of initial nonorthogonal stochastic vectors \(p\) and \(r\), the limit state of the dynamical system studied here involving the mapping \(*\) has the following description in terms of the coordinates \(\{p^{\infty},r^{\infty}\}\): \(p_k^{\infty}=r_k^{\infty}=0\), \(\omega_k\in\Omega_0\); \(p_i^{\infty}=r_i^{\infty}=|\Omega_+|^{-1}\), \(\omega_i\in\Omega_+\), where \(|\cdot|\) means the cardinality. Some examples are also illustrated.
