In this paper, we establish the existence of Stokes waves with piecewise smooth vorticity in a two-dimensional, infinitely deep fluid domain. These waves represent traveling water waves propagating over sheared currents in a semi-infinite…
We study convergence in networks of piecewise-smooth (PWS) systems that commonly arise in applications to model dynamical systems whose evolution is affected by macroscopic events such as switches and impacts. Existing approaches were…
In this paper, we consider a class of continuous maps characterized by a singularity of order $x^{q/p}$ (with $p,q \in \mathbb{N}$, $p>q$, and $(p,q)=1$) on one side of the discontinuity boundary $\Sigma$ and a linear behaviour on the other…
Oscillatory dynamics are ubiquitous in biological networks. Possible sources of oscillations are well understood in low-dimensional systems, but have not been fully explored in high-dimensional networks. Here we study large networks…
We develop a bifurcation theory for infinite dimensional systems satisfying abstract hypotheses that are tailored for applications to mean field coupled chaotic maps. Our abstract theory can be applied to many cases, from globally coupled…
We discuss the breakdown of spatial coherence in networks of coupled oscillators with nonlocal interaction. By systematically analyzing the dependence of the spatio-temporal dynamics on the range and strength of coupling, we uncover a…
We consider steady solutions to the incompressible Euler equations in a two-dimensional channel with rigid walls. The flow consists of two periodic layers of constant vorticity separated by an unknown interface. Using global bifurcation…

We numerically study bifurcations of attractors of the H\'enon map with additive bounded noise with spherical reach. The bifurcations are analysed using a finite-dimensional boundary map. We distinguish between two types of bifurcations:…
For the 2D Euler equations and related models of geophysical flows, minima of energy--Casimir variational problems are stable steady states of the equations (Arnol'd theorems). The same variational problems also describe sets of statistical…
This paper concerns piecewise-smooth maps on $\mathbb{R}^d$ that are continuous but not differentiable on switching manifolds (where the functional form of the map changes). The stability of fixed points on switching manifolds is…
For dynamical systems that switch between different modes of operation, parameter variation can cause periodic solutions to lose or acquire new switching events. When this causes the eigenvalues (stability multipliers) associated with the…
A bifurcation is a qualitative change in a family of solutions to an equation produced by varying parameters. In contrast to the local bifurcations of dynamical systems that are often related to a change in the number or stability of…
The border-collision normal form describes the local dynamics in continuous systems with switches when a fixed point intersects a switching surface. For one-dimensional cases where the bifurcation creates or destroys only fixed points and…
The dynamical properties of a particle in a gravitational field colliding with a rigid wall moving with piecewise constant velocity are studied. The linear nature of the wall's motion permits further analytical investigation than is…
The collision of a fixed point with a switching manifold (or border) in a piecewise-smooth map can create many different types of invariant sets. This paper explores two techniques that, combined, establish a chaotic attractor is created in…
