Intersection dynamics on Grassmann manifolds (Q2565264)

Let \(A\) be a nondegenerate linear operator from the \(m\)-dimensional complex space \(\mathbb{C}^m\) into itself and \(X^k\), \(Y^{m-k}\) be two linear subspaces of \(\mathbb{C}^m\) with complementary dimensions \(k\), \(m-k\), respectively. In the paper the structure of the set \(\Sigma_\zeta\) of integers \(N\) such that the complex dimension of the intersection \(A^N(X^k) \cap Y^{m-k}\) is at least \(\zeta\) is studied. If \(\zeta=1\), a necessary and sufficient condition for the set \(\Sigma_1\) to be infinite is formulated. It is proved that the function \(N\mapsto \dim (A^N(X^k) \cap Y^{m-k})\) is periodic for sufficiently large values of \(|N|\). Finally, Arnold's classification conjecture (giving a condition equivalent to the infiniteness of \(\Sigma_1)\) is discussed.
