    Fine properties of Lp-cocycles which allow abundance of simple and trivial spectrum

    In this paper we generalize [3] and prove that the class of accessible and saddle-conservative cocycles (a wide class which includes cocycles evolving in GL(d,R), SL(d,R) and Sp(d,R) Lp-densely have a simple spectrum. We also generalize [3, 1] and prove that for an Lp-residual subset of accessible cocycles we have a one-point spectrum, by using a different approach of the one given in [3]. Finally, we show that the linear differential system versions of previous results also hold and give some applications.Comment: 29 page

    On the entropy of conservative flows

    Get PDF
    We obtain a C1C^1-generic subset of the incompressible flows in a closed three-dimensional manifold where Pesin's entropy formula holds thus establishing the continuous-time version of \cite{T}. Moreover, in any compact manifold of dimension larger or equal to three we obtain that the metric entropy function and the integrated upper Lyapunov exponent function are not continuous with respect to the C1C^1 Whitney topology. Finally, we establish the C2C^2-genericity of Pesin's entropy formula in the context of Hamiltonian four-dimensional flows.Comment: 10 page

    Wavefunctios of log-periodic oscillators

    We use the Lewis and Riesenfeld invariant method [\textit{J. Math. Phys.} \textbf{10}, 1458 (1969)] and a unitary transformation to obtain the exact Schr\"{o}dinger wave functions for time-dependent harmonic oscillators exhibiting log-periodic-type behavior. For each oscillator we calculate the quantum fluctuations in the coordinate and momentum as well as the quantum correlations between the coordinate and momentum. We observe that the oscillator with m=m0t/t0m=m_0t/t_0 and ω=ω0t0/t\omega= \omega_0t_0/t, which exhibits an exact log-periodic oscillation, behaves as the harmonic oscillator with mm and ω\omega constant.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figure
