We study billiard in the plane endowed with symmetric $mathbb{Z}^2$-periodic obstacles of a right-angled polygonal shape. One of our main interests is the dependence of the diffusion rate of the billiard on the shape of the obstacle. We prove, in particular, that when the number of angles of a symmetric connected obstacle grows, the diffusion rate tends to zero, thus answering a question of J.-C. Yoccoz. Our results are based on computation of Lyapunov exponents of the Hodge bundle over hyperelliptic loci in the moduli spaces of quadratic differentials, which represents independent interest. In particular, we compute the exact value of the Lyapunov exponent $lambda^+_1$ for all elliptic loci of quadratic differentials with simple zeroes and poles.

The purpose of this article is twofold. On one hand, we reveal the equivalence of shift of finite type between a one-sided shift $X$ and its associated hom tree-shift $mathcal{T}_{X}$, as well as the equivalence in the sofic shift. On the other hand, we investigate the interrelationship among the comparable mixing properties on tree-shifts as those on multidimensional shift spaces. They include irreducibility, topologically mixing, block gluing, and strong irreducibility, all of which are defined in the spirit of classical multidimensional shift, complete prefix code (CPC), and uniform CPC. In summary, the mixing properties defined in all three manners coincide for $mathcal{T}_{X}$. Furthermore, an equivalence between irreducibility on $mathcal{T}_{A}$ and irreducibility on $X_A$ are seen, and so is one between topologically mixing on $mathcal{T}_{A}$ and mixing property on $X_A$, where $X_A$ is the one-sided shift space induced by the matrix $A$ and $T_A$ is the associated tree-shift. These equivalences are consistent with the mixing properties on $X$ or $X_A$ when viewed as a degenerate tree-shift.
Savannas are dynamical systems where grasses and trees can either dominate or coexist. Fires are known to be central in the functioning of the savanna biome though their characteristics are expected to vary along the rainfall gradients as observed in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this paper, we model the tree-grass dynamics using impulsive differential equations that consider fires as discrete events. This framework allows us to carry out a comprehensive qualitative mathematical analysis that revealed more diverse possible outcomes than the analogous continuous model. We investigated local and global properties of the equilibria and show that various states exist for the physiognomy of vegetation. Though several abrupt shifts between vegetation states appeared determined by fire periodicity, we showed that direct shading of grasses by trees is also an influential process embodied in the model by a competition parameter leading to bifurcations. Relying on a suitable nonstandard finite difference scheme, we carried out numerical simulations in reference to three main climatic zones as observable in Central Africa.
We study the topological entropy of hom tree-shifts and show that, although the topological entropy is not conjugacy invariant for tree-shifts in general, it remains invariant for hom tree higher block shifts. In doi:10.1016/j.tcs.2018.05.034 and doi :10.3934/dcds.2020186, Petersen and Salama demonstrated the existence of topological entropy for tree-shifts and $h(mathcal{T}_X) geq h(X)$, where $mathcal{T}_X$ is the hom tree-shift derived from $X$. We characterize a necessary and sufficient condition when the equality holds for the case where $X$ is a shift of finite type. In addition, two novel phenomena have been revealed for tree-shifts. There is a gap in the set of topological entropy of hom tree-shifts of finite type, which makes such a set not dense. Last but not least, the topological entropy of a reducible hom tree-shift of finite type is equal to or larger than that of its maximal irreducible component.
We reveal an algorithm for determining the complete prefix code irreducibility (CPC-irreducibility) of dyadic trees labeled by a finite alphabet. By introducing an extended directed graph representation of tree shift of finite type (TSFT), we show th at the CPC-irreducibility of TSFTs is related to the connectivity of its graph representation, which is a similar result to one-dimensional shifts of finite type.
In this paper, we develop a node-based approximate model for Markovian contagion dynamics on networks. We prove that our approximate model is exact for SIR (susceptible-infectious-recovered) and SEIR (susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered) dynamic s on tree graphs with a single source of infection and that the model otherwise gives upper bounds on the probabilities of each node being susceptible. Our analysis of SEIR contagion dynamics is generalised to SEIR models with arbitrarily many distinct classes of exposed state. In the case of trees with a single source of infection, our approach yields a system of partially-decoupled linear differential equations that exactly describes the evolution of node-state probabilities. We use this to state explicit closed-form solutions for SIR dynamics on a chain.
