Attractors and Arithmetic
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider attractor varieties arising in the construction of dyonic black holes in CalabiYau compactifications of IIB string theory. We show that the attractor varieties are constructed from products of elliptic curves with complex multiplication for N = 4, 8 compactifications. The heterotic dual theories are related to rational conformal field theories. The emergence of curves with complex multiplication suggests many interesting connections between arithmetic and string theory. This paper is a brief overview of a longer companion paper entitled “Arithmetic and Attractors” hep-th/9807087.

Robust visualization of strange attractors using affine arithmetic
We propose the use of affine arithmetic in cell-mapping methods for the robust visualization of strange attractors and show that the resulting cellular approximations converge faster than those produced by cell-mapping methods based on classical interval arithmetic.
متن کاملNumerical Study of Coexisting attractors for the HéNon Map
The question of coexisting attractors for the Hénon map is studied numerically by performing an exhaustive search in the parameter space. As a result, several parameter values for which more than two attractors coexist are found. Using tools from interval analysis, we show rigorously that the attractors exist. In the case of periodic orbits we verify that they are stable, and thus proper sinks....
متن کاملSkew Product Attractors and Concavity
We propose an approach to the attractors of skew products that tries to avoid unnecessary structures on the base space and rejects the assumption on the invariance of an attractor. When nonivertible maps in the base are allowed, one can encounter the mystery of the vanishing attractor. In the second part of the paper, we show that if the fiber maps are concave interval maps then contraction in ...
متن کاملComputing geometric Lorenz attractors with arbitrary precision
The Lorenz attractor was introduced in 1963 by E. N. Lorenz as one of the first examples of strange attractors. However Lorenz’ research was mainly based on (non-rigourous) numerical simulations and, until recently, the proof of the existence of the Lorenz attractor remained elusive. To address that problem some authors introduced geometric Lorenz models and proved that geometric Lorenz models ...
متن کاملCompositional Analysis of Boolean Networks Using Local Fixed-Point Iterations
We present a compositional method which allows to overapproximate the set of attractors and under-approximate the set of basins of attraction of a Boolean network (BN). This merely consists in replacing a global fixed-point computation by a composition of local fixedpoint computations. Once these approximations have been computed, it becomes much more tractable to generate the exact sets of att...
