Boundary effects in the stepwise structure of the Lyapunov spectra and the corresponding wavelike structure of the Lyapunov vectors are discussed numerically in quasi-one-dimensional systems consisting of many hard-disks. Four kinds of…

The transfer matrix method is applied to quasi one-dimensional and one-dimensional disordered systems with long-range interactions, described by band random matrices. We investigate the convergence properties of the whole Lyapunov spectra…

We consider families of piecewise linear maps in which the moduli of the two slopes take different values. In some parameter regions, despite the variations in the dynamics, the Lyapunov exponent and the topological entropy remain constant.…

The Lyapunov rank of a cone is the dimension of the Lie algebra of its automorphism group. It is invariant under linear isomorphism and in general not unique - two or more non-isomorphic cones can share the same Lyapunov rank. It is…

For any integer $r$ with $1\leq r<\infty$, we present a one-parameter family $F_\sigma$ $(0<\sigma<1)$ of 2-dimensional piecewise $\mathcal C^r$ expanding maps such that each $F_\sigma$ has an observable (i.e. Lebesgue positive) Lyapunov…

We study the dimension spectrum for Lyapunov exponents for rational maps acting on the Riemann sphere and characterize it by means of the Legendre-Fenchel transform of the hidden variational pressure. This pressure is defined by means of…

The spectra of rogue waves of Manakov equations that exist in both focusing or defocusing regimes are derived in analytic form. These spectra are asymmetric during their whole expansion-contraction cycle. They have triangular shape at each…

We discuss a two-parameter family of maps that generalize piecewise linear, expanding maps of the circle. One parameter measures the effect of a non-linearity which bends the branches of the linear map. The second parameter rotates points…

We prove that generic fiber-bunched and H\"older continuous linear cocycles over a non-uniformly hyperbolic system endowed with a u-Gibbs measure have simple Lyapunov spectrum. This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture proposed by…

We consider explosions in the generalized recurrent set for homeomorphisms on a compact metric space. We provide multiple examples to show that such explosions can occur, in contrast to the case for the chain recurrent set. We give…

We describe spectra of associative (not necessarily unital and not necessarily countable-dimensional) locally matrix algebras. We determine all possible spectra of locally matrix algebras and give a new proof of Dixmier-Baranov Theorem. As…

We show the sum of the first $k$ Lyapunov exponents of linear cocycles is an upper semicontinuous function in the $L^p$ topologies, for any $1 \le p \le \infty$ and $k$. This fact, together with a result from Arnold and Cong, implies that…

We consider the self-adjoint third order operator with 1-periodic coefficients on the real line. The spectrum of the operator is absolutely continuous and covers the real line. We determine the high energy asymptotics of the periodic,…

Once recognizing that point particles moving inside the extended version of the rippled billiard perform L\'evy flights characterized by a L\'evy-type distribution $P(\ell)\sim \ell^{-(1+\alpha)}$ with $\alpha=1$, we derive a generalized…

We prove that the Lyapunov exponents, cosidered as functions of measures with non compact support, are semicontinuous with respect to the Wasserstein topology but not with respect to the weak* topology. Moreover, we prove that they are not…

The problems on the location of the matrix spectrum inside or outside domains bounded by ellipses or parabolas are studied. Special Lyapunov-type equations are connected with these problems. Theorems about the unique solvability of such…

For ergodic 1d Jacobi operators we prove that the random singular components of any spectral measure are almost surely mutually disjoint as long as one restricts to the set of positive Lyapunov exponent. In the context of extended Harper's…

Criteria for the simplicity of the Lyapunov spectra of linear cocycles have been found by Furstenberg, Guivarc'h-Raugi, Gol'dsheid-Margulis and, more recently, Bonatti-Viana and Avila-Viana. In all the cases, the authors consider cocycles…

For general asymptotically sub-additive potentials (resp. asymptotically additive potentials) on general topological dynamical systems, we establish some variational relations between the topological entropy of the level sets of Lyapunov…

We show that SL(2,R) cocycles with a positive Lyapunov exponent are dense in all regularity classes and for all non-periodic dynamical systems. For Schr\"odinger cocycles, we show prevalence of potentials for which the Lyapunov exponent is…
