“…A general result, which holds in any compact metric phase space, is that the attractor of a piecewise contracting map consists of a finite number of periodic orbits, whenever it does not intersect the boundary of a contraction piece (see [5]). For PCIM defined on a half-closed interval, Nogueira, Pires and Rosales proved moreover that this periodic asymptotic behavior is generic in a metric sense and with a number of periodic orbits which is bounded above by the number of contraction pieces [10,11,12]. This generalizes and refines a previous result by Brémont obtained in [1].…”

We study the asymptotic dynamics of piecewise contracting maps defined on a compact interval. For maps that are not necessarily injective, but have a finite number of local extrema and discontinuity points, we prove the existence of a decomposition of the support of the asymptotic dynamics into a finite number of minimal components. Each component is either a periodic orbit or a minimal Cantor set and such that the ω-limit set of (almost) every point in the interval is exactly one of these components. Moreover, we show that each component is the ω-limit set, or the closure of the orbit, of a one-sided limit of the map at a discontinuity point or at a local extremum.

For maps that are not necessarily injective, but have a finite number of local extrema and discontinuity points, we prove the existence of a decomposition of the support of the asymptotic dynamics into a finite number of minimal components. Each component is either a periodic orbit or a minimal Cantor set and such that the $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}$ -limit set of (almost) every point in the interval is exactly one of these components. Moreover, we show that each component is the $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}$ -limit set, or the closure of the orbit, of a one-sided limit of the map at a discontinuity point or at a local extremum.

“…On the one hand, as already mentioned, recent advances (see [13,14]) in the understanding of the topological dynamics of piecewise contractions show that generically piecewise contractions have finitely many limit cycles that attracts all orbits. Hence, an affirmative answer to (Q) is very unlikely.…”

“…By [14,Theorem 1.4], we have that for Lebesgue almost every vector (d 1 , d 2 , d 3 ) with positive entries, any switched server system with parameters d ij satisfying (1) is structurally stable and admits finitely many limit cycles that attract all the orbits. The same result was obtained in [4,Theorem 4.1] under the additional restrictions: d 21 = d 31 , d 12 = d 32 and d 13 = d 23 .…”

Switched server systems are mathematical models of manufacturing, traffic and queueing systems that have being studied since the early 1990s. In particular, it is known that typically the dynamics of such systems is asymptotically periodic: each orbit of the system converges to one of its finitely many limit cycles. In this article, we provide an explicit example of a switched server system with exotic behaviour: each orbit of the system converges to the same Cantor attractor. To accomplish this goal, we bring together recent advances in the understanding of the topological dynamics of piecewise contractions and interval exchange transformations (IETs) with flips. The ultimate result is a switched server system whose Poincaré map is semiconjugate to a minimal and uniquely ergodic IET with flips.
