✦ Synopsis
We investigate linear parabolic maps on the torus. In a generic case these maps are non-invertible and discontinuous. Although the metric entropy of these systems is equal to zero, their dynamics is non-trivial due to folding of the image of the unit square into the torus. We study the structure of the maximal invariant set, and in a generic case we prove the sensitive dependence on the initial conditions. We study the decay of correlations and the diffusion in the corresponding system on the plane. We also demonstrate how the rationality of the real numbers defining the map influences the dynamical properties of the system.

A construction is given for all the regular maps of type (3, 6} on the torus, with v vertices, v being any integer > 0. We also find bounds for the number of those maps, in particular for the case in which the maps contain "normal" Hamiltonian circuits. Using duality, the results may be applied for
In this paper we study certain aspects of Bruhat order on Coxeter groups. Let W be a Coxeter group, and let P P denote the set of parabolic subgroups of W. We construct a map m : W = P P ª W and examine its first properties. We prove the following characterization: w is the longest element of a para
