The classical Lorenz system is considered. For many years, this system has been the subject of study by numerous authors. However, until now the structure of the Lorenz attractor is not clear completely yet, and the most important question…
Nontwist area-preserving maps violate the twist condition at specific orbits, resulting in shearless invariant curves that prevent chaotic transport. Plasmas and fluids with nonmonotonic equilibrium profiles may be described using nontwist…

Chaos is a fundamental phenomenon in nonlinear dynamics, manifesting as irregular and unpredictable behavior across various physical systems. Among the diverse routes to chaos, intermittent chaos is a distinct transition pathway,…
The Takens-Bogdanov bifurcation is a codimension two bifurcation that provides a key to the presence of complex dynamics in many systems of physical interest. When the system is translation-invariant in one spatial dimension with no…
The stable and unstable manifolds of an invariant set of a piecewise-smooth map are themselves piecewise-smooth. Consequently, as parameters of a piecewise-smooth map are varied, an invariant set can develop a homoclinic connection when its…

We consider dynamics of a scalar piecewise linear "saw map" with infinitely many linear segments. In particular, such maps are generated as a Poincar\'e map of simple two-dimensional discrete time piecewise linear systems involving a…
It is well-known that the dynamics of the Arnold circle map is phase-locked in regions of the parameter space called Arnold tongues. If the map is invertible, the only possible dynamics is either quasiperiodic motion, or phase-locked…
In linearly stable shear flows turbulence spontaneously decays with a characteristic lifetime that varies with Reynolds number. The lifetime sharply increases with Reynolds number so that a possible divergence marking the transition to…

In shear flows like pipe flow and plane Couette flow there is an extended range of parameters where linearly stable laminar flow coexists with a transient turbulent dynamics. When increasing the amplitude of a perturbation on top of the…
The emergence of quantum chaos in a system of trapped interacting bosons with externally impressed rotation is studied through spectral form factor (SFF) and power spectrum using exact diagonalization. Two distinct interaction regimes are…
There exists a variety of physically interesting situations described by continuous maps that are nondifferentiable on some surface in phase space. Such systems exhibit novel types of bifurcations in which multiple coexisting attractors can…

We establish the emergence of chaotic motion in optomechanical systems. Chaos appears at negative detuning for experimentally accessible values of the pump power and other system parameters. We describe the sequence of period doubling…
Angle-action maps that are periodic in the action direction can have accelerator modes: orbits that are periodic when projected onto the torus, but that lift to unbounded orbits in an action variable. In this paper we construct a…
