We consider tilings of Euclidean spaces by polygons or polyhedra, in particular, tilings made by a substitution process, such as the Penrose tilings of the plane. We define an isomorphism invariant related to a subgroup of rotations and…

Many-body systems relaxing to equilibrium can exhibit complex dynamics even if their steady state is trivial. At low temperatures or high densities their evolution is often dominated by steric hindrances affecting particle motion [1,2,3].…

Twistor phase spaces are used to provide a general description of the dynamics of a finite number of directly interacting massless spinning particles forming a closed relativistic massive and spinning system with an internal structure. A…

We investigate the dynamics of many-body long-range interacting systems, taking the Hamiltonian Mean Field model as a case study. We show that an abundance of regular trajectories, associated with invariant tori of the single-particle…

This survey paper is aimed to describe a relatively new branch of symbolic dynamics which we call Arithmetic Dynamics. It deals with explicit arithmetic expansions of reals and vectors that have a "dynamical" sense. This means precisely…

In biological and engineering systems, structure, function and dynamics are highly coupled. Such interactions can be naturally and compactly captured via tensor based state space dynamic representations. However, such representations are…

It is very well known that periodic orbits of autonomous Hamiltonian systems are generically organized into smooth one-parameter families (the parameter being just the energy value). We present a simple example of an integrable Hamiltonian…

In toroidal geometry, and prior to the establishment of a fully developed turbulent state, the so-called topological instability of the pressure-gradient-driven turbulence is observed. In this intermediate state, a narrow spectral band of…

Rigged configurations are known to provide action-angle variables for remarkable discrete dynamical systems known as box-ball systems. We conjecture an explicit piecewise-linear formula to obtain the shapes of a rigged configuration from a…

The analysis of global dynamics, particularly the identification and characterization of attractors and their regions of attraction, is essential for complex nonlinear and hybrid systems. Combinatorial methods based on Conley's index theory…

Discrete models have a long tradition in engineering, including finite state machines, Boolean networks, Petri nets, and agent-based models. Of particular importance is the question of how the model structure constrains its dynamics. This…

We study the problem of persistence of attractors with smooth boundary for a class of set-valued dynamical systems that naturally arise in the context of random and control dynamical systems, as well as in systems modeling the dynamical…

Chaos is an inherently dynamical phenomenon traditionally studied for trajectories that are either permanently erratic or transiently influenced by permanently erratic ones lying on a set of measure zero. The latter gives rise to the final…

We introduce a general method to construct classes of dynamical systems invariant under generalizations of the Carroll and of the Galilei groups. The method consists in starting from a space-time in $D+1$ dimensions and partitioning it in…

I investigate the problem of finding a statistical description of a complex many-body system whose invariant measure cannot be constructed stemming from classical thermodynamics ensembles. By taking solitons as a reference system and by…

We study a three-dimensional dynamical system in two slow variables and one fast variable. We analyze the tangency of the unstable manifold of an equilibrium point with "the" repelling slow manifold, in the presence of a stable periodic…

Dynamical systems theory approach has been successfully used in physical oceanography for the last two decades to study mixing and transport of water masses in the ocean. The basic theoretical ideas have been borrowed from the phenomenon of…

By analysing an n-dimensional generalisation of Thomas's cyclically symmetric attractor we find that this chaotic dynamical system behaves like a random walk constrained onto the surface of a hypersphere. The growth of error is limited,…

We derive an expression for the local transverse polarization of a boost-invariant expanding system of massive particles, which involves a set of dynamical spin moments. Starting from spin kinetic theory, we obtain a closed set of equations…

The Boolean autonomous dynamical systems, also called regular autonomous asynchronous systems are systems whose 'vector field' is a function {\Phi}:{0,1}^{n}{\to}{0,1}^{n} and time is discrete or continuous. While the synchronous systems…
