Let f be a smooth symplectic diffeomorphism of ${\mathbb R}^2$ admitting a (non-split) separatrix associated to a hyperbolic fixed point. We prove that if f is a perturbation of the time-1 map of a symplectic autonomous vector field, this separatrix is accumulated by a positive measure set of invariant circles. However, we provide examples of smooth symplectic diffeomorphisms with a Lyapunov unstable non-split separatrix that are not accumulated by invariant circles.

Quasiperiodic media is a class of almost periodic media which is generated from periodic media through a ‘cut and project’ procedure. Quasiperiodic media displays some extraordinary optical, electronic and conductivity properties which call for the development of methods to analyse their microstructures and effective behaviour. In this paper, we develop the method of Bloch wave homogenisation for quasiperiodic media. Bloch waves are typically defined through a direct integral decomposition of periodic operators. A suitable direct integral decomposition is not available for almost periodic operators. To remedy this, we lift a quasiperiodic operator to a degenerate periodic operator in higher dimensions. Approximate Bloch waves are obtained for a regularised version of the degenerate operator. Homogenised coefficients for quasiperiodic media are obtained from the first Bloch eigenvalue of the regularised operator in the limit of regularisation parameter going to zero. A notion of quasiperiodic Bloch transform is defined and employed to obtain homogenisation limit for an equation with highly oscillating quasiperiodic coefficients.

In this paper we consider the following nonlinear quasi-periodic system:

$$\begin{eqnarray}{\dot{x}}=(A+\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}P(t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}))x+\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}g(t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716})+h(x,t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}),\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^{d},\end{eqnarray}$$

$d\times d$

$\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}g(t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716})$

$\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}$

$h(x,t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716})=O(x^{2})$

$x\rightarrow 0$

$$\begin{eqnarray}{\dot{x}}=(A+B_{\ast }(t))x+h_{\ast }(x,t,\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}),\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^{d},\end{eqnarray}$$

In this work we are concerned with the existence of fixed points for multivalued maps defined on Banach spaces. Using the Banach spaces scale concept, we establish the existence of a fixed point of a multivalued map in a vector subspace where the map is only locally Lipschitz continuous. We apply our results to the existence of mild solutions and asymptotically almost periodic solutions of an abstract Cauchy problem governed by a first-order differential inclusion. Our results are obtained by using fixed point theory for the measure of noncompactness.

This paper analyses the pseudo almost periodicity of the impulsive neoclassical growth model. We investigate the existence, uniqueness and exponential stability of the pseudo almost periodic solution. Moreover, an example is given to illustrate the significance of the main findings.

Let $M$ and $N$ be admissible Hausdorff topological spaces endowed with admissible families of open coverings. Assume that $\mathcal{S}$ is a semigroup acting on both $M$ and $N$. In this paper we study the behavior of limit sets, prolongations, prolongational limit sets, attracting sets, attractors, and Lyapunov stable sets (all concepts defined for the action of the semigroup $\mathcal{S}$) under equivariant maps and semiconjugations from $M$ to $N$.

The solutions of a perturbed linear ordinary differential equation (ODE) system are studied. Provided that some integrability and oddness conditions are satisfied, we show that they are asymptotically equivalent at t = ±∞ to the solutions of the unperturbed one. This fact is used to determine the existence of almost periodic or pseudo-almost periodic solutions of the perturbed system.
