Consider a perturbed KdV equation: ut +uxxx −6uux = εf(u(·)), x ∈ T = R/Z, where the nonlinear perturbation defines analytic operators u(·) 􏰀→ f(u(·)) in sufficiently smooth Sobolev spaces. Assume that the equation has an ε-quasi- invariant measure μ and satisfies some additional mild assumptions. Let uε(t) be a solution. Then on time intervals of order ε−1, as ε → 0, its actions I(uε(t,·)) can be approximated by solutions of a certain well-posed averaged equation, provided that the initial datum is μ-typical.

The classical Morse theory proceeds by considering sublevel sets f^{−1}(−∞,a] of a Morse function f:M→R, where M is a smooth finite-dimensional manifold. In this paper, we study the topology of the level sets f^{−1}(a) and give conditions under which the topology of f^{−1}(a) changes when passing a critical value. We show that for a general class of functions, which includes all exhaustive Morse functions, the topology of a regular level f^{−1}(a) always changes when passing a single critical point, unless the index of the critical point is half the dimension of the manifold M. When f is a natural Hamiltonian on a cotangent bundle, we obtain more precise results in terms of the topology of the base space. (Counter-)examples and applications to celestial mechanics are also discussed.

The molecule solution of an extended discrete LotkaVolterra equation is constructed, from which a new sequence transformation is proposed. A convergence acceleration algorithm for implementing this sequence transformation is found. It is shown that our new sequence transformation accelerates some kinds of linearly convergent sequences and factorially convergent sequences with good numerical stability. Some numerical examples are also presented.

We prove we can build (transitive or nontransitive) Anosov flows on closed three-dimensional manifolds by gluing together filtrating neighborhoods of hyperbolic sets. We give several applications of this result; for example: 1.We build a closed three-dimensional manifold supporting both a transitive Anosov vector field and a nontransitive Anosov vector field. 2.For any n, we build a closed three-dimensional manifold M supporting at least n pairwise different Anosov vector fields. 3.We build transitive hyperbolic attractors with prescribed entrance foliation; in particular, we construct some incoherent transitive hyperbolic attractors. 4.We build a transitive Anosov vector field admitting infinitely many pairwise nonisotopic transverse tori.
