For products $P_N$ of $N$ random matrices of size $d \times d$, there is a natural notion of finite $N$ Lyapunov exponents $\{\mu_i\}_{i=1}^d$. In the case of standard Gaussian random matrices with real, complex or real quaternion elements,…
For $N \in \mathbb{N}$, let $T_{N}$ be the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. Expressions for the sequence of numbers $p_{\ell}^{(N)}$, defined as the coefficients in the expansion of $1/T_{N}(1/z)$, are provided. These coefficients…

In this paper, we discuss the Lyapunov exponent definition of chaos and how it can be used to quantify the chaotic behavior of a system. We derive a way to practically calculate the Lyapunov exponent of a one-dimensional system and use it…

The (general) hypoexponential distribution is the distribution of a sum of independent exponential random variables. We consider the particular case when the involved exponential variables have distinct rate parameters. We prove that the…

I study the Lyapunov exponent and the integrated density of states for general Jacobi operators. The main result is that questions about these, can be reduced to questions about ergodic Jacobi operators. Then, I apply this to $a(n) = 1$ and…
Fix a prime $p$ and define $T_p(n)$ to be the number of nonzero residues in the $n$th row of pascal's triangle mod $p$, and define $\phi_p(n)$ to be the number of nonzero residues in the first $n$ rows of pascal's triangle mod $p$. We…
We study the Lyapunov exponents of a two-dimensional, random Lorentz gas at low density. The positive Lyapunov exponent may be obtained either by a direct analysis of the dynamics, or by the use of kinetic theory methods. To leading orders…
Finite-time Lyapunov exponents of generic chaotic dynamical systems fluctuate in time. These fluctuations are due to the different degree of stability across the accessible phase-space. A recent numerical study of spatially-extended systems…

The focus of this paper is the study of generalized Fibonacci polynomials and Fibonomial coefficients. The former are polynomials {n} in variables s and t given by {0} = 0, {1} = 1, and {n} = s{n-1}+t{n-2} for n ge 2. The latter are defined…

We give an exponential upper bound on the probabilitywith which the denominator of the $n$th convergent in the regular continued fraction expansion stays away from the mean $\frac{n\pi^2}{12\log2}$. The exponential rate is best possible,…
We consider products of matrices of the form $A_n=O_n+\epsilon N_n$ where $O_n$ is a sequence of $d\times d$ orthogonal matrices and $N_n$ has independent standard normal entries and the $(N_n)$ are mutually independent. We study the…
The predictability problem for systems with different characteristic time scales is investigated. It is shown that even in simple chaotic dynamical systems, the leading Lyapunov exponent is not sufficient to estimate the predictability…
