We show that this complete gradient estimate is stable under tensor products and free products and establish its validity for a number of examples. As an application we prove a complete modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality with optimal constant for Poisson-type semigroups on free group factors.}, author = {Wirth, Melchior and Zhang, Haonan}, issn = {1432-0916}, journal = {Communications in Mathematical Physics}, keywords = {Mathematical Physics, Statistical and Nonlinear Physics}, pages = {761–791}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, title = {{Complete gradient estimates of quantum Markov semigroups}}, doi = {10.1007/s00220-021-04199-4}, volume = {387}, year = {2021}, } @article{8415, abstract = {We consider billiards obtained by removing three strictly convex obstacles satisfying the non-eclipse condition on the plane.

We study the following inverse problem: does the Marked Length Spectrum (i.e., the set of lengths of periodic orbits together with their labeling), determine the geometry of the billiard table? We show that from the Marked Length Spectrum it is possible to recover the curvature at periodic points of period two, as well as the Lyapunov exponent of each periodic orbit.}, author = {Bálint, Péter and De Simoi, Jacopo and Kaloshin, Vadim and Leguil, Martin}, issn = {0010-3616}, journal = {Communications in Mathematical Physics}, keywords = {Mathematical Physics, Statistical and Nonlinear Physics}, number = {3}, pages = {1531--1575}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, title = {{Marked length spectrum, homoclinic orbits and the geometry of open dispersing billiards}}, doi = {10.1007/s00220-019-03448-x}, volume = {374}, year = {2019}, } @article{8417, abstract = {The restricted planar elliptic three body problem (RPETBP) describes the motion of a massless particle (a comet or an asteroid) under the gravitational field of two massive bodies (the primaries, say the Sun and Jupiter) revolving around their center of mass on elliptic orbits with some positive eccentricity. The aim of this paper is to show the existence of orbits whose angular momentum performs arbitrary excursions in a large region. In particular, there exist diffusive orbits, that is, with a large variation of angular momentum. The leading idea of the proof consists in analyzing parabolic motions of the comet. By a well-known result of McGehee, the union of future (resp. past) parabolic orbits is an analytic manifold P+ (resp. P−). In a properly chosen coordinate system these manifolds are stable (resp. unstable) manifolds of a manifold at infinity P∞, which we call the manifold at parabolic infinity. On P∞ it is possible to define two scattering maps, which contain the map structure of the homoclinic trajectories to it, i.e. orbits parabolic both in the future and the past. Since the inner dynamics inside P∞ is trivial, two different scattering maps are used. The combination of these two scattering maps permits the design of the desired diffusive pseudo-orbits. Using shadowing techniques and these pseudo orbits we show the existence of true trajectories of the RPETBP whose angular momentum varies in any predetermined fashion.}, author = {Delshams, Amadeu and Kaloshin, Vadim and de la Rosa, Abraham and Seara, Tere M.}, issn = {0010-3616}, journal = {Communications in Mathematical Physics}, keywords = {Mathematical Physics, Statistical and Nonlinear Physics}, number = {3}, pages = {1173--1228}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, title = {{Global instability in the restricted planar elliptic three body problem}}, doi = {10.1007/s00220-018-3248-z}, volume = {366}, year = {2018}, } @article{8420, abstract = {We show that in the space of all convex billiard boundaries, the set of boundaries with rational caustics is dense.

Let ${\mathbb T}^2$ be a 2-dimensional torus and B2 be the unit ball around the origin in ${\mathbb R}^2$ . Fix ρ > 0. Our main result says that for a 'generic' time-periodic perturbation of an integrable system of two degrees of freedom $H_0(p)+\varepsilon H_1(\theta,p,t),\quad \ \theta\in {\mathbb T}^2,\ p\in B^2,\ t\in {\mathbb T}={\mathbb R}/{\mathbb Z}$ , with a strictly convex H0, there exists a ρ-dense orbit (θε, pε, t)(t) in ${\mathbb T}^2 \times B^2 \times {\mathbb T}$ , namely, a ρ-neighborhood of the orbit contains ${\mathbb T}^2 \times B^2 \times {\mathbb T}$ . Our proof is a combination of geometric and variational methods. The fundamental elements of the construction are the usage of crumpled normally hyperbolic invariant cylinders from [9], flower and simple normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds from [36] as well as their kissing property at a strong double resonance. This allows us to build a 'connected' net of three-dimensional normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds.
