We consider a $C^{1,\alpha}$ smooth flow in $\mathbb{R}^n$ which is "strongly monotone" with respect to a cone $C$ of rank $k$, a closed set that contains a linear subspace of dimension $k$ and no linear subspaces of higher dimension. We…
We consider the problem of robust diffusive stability (RDS) for a pair of coupled stable discrete-time positive linear-time invariant (LTI) systems. We first show that the existence of a common diagonal Lyapunov function is sufficient for…
For a fast particle moving within a two-dimensional array of soft scatterers - centers of weak and short-range potential - the dependence of the Lyapunov exponent on the system parameters is studied. The use of the linearized equations for…

We consider a Hamiltonian chain of rotators (in general nonlinear) in which the first rotator is damped. Being motivated by problems of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of crystals, we construct a strict Lyapunov function that allows us…
We report the experimental evidence of the existence of a random attractor in a fully developed turbulent swirling flow. By defining a global observable which tracks the asymmetry in the flux of angular momentum imparted to the flow, we can…

We show, using generic globally-coupled systems, that the collective dynamics of large chaotic systems is encoded in their Lyapunov spectra: most modes are typically localized on a few degrees of freedom, but some are delocalized, acting…
