For strongly monotone dynamical systems on a Banach space, we show that the largest Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_{\max}>0$ holds on a shy set in the measure-theoretic sense. This exhibits that strongly monotone dynamical systems admit no…
We prove existence of (at most denumerable many) absolutely continuous invariant probability measures for random one-dimensional dynamical systems with asymptotic expansion. If the rate of expansion (Lyapunov exponents) is bounded away from…
Lyapunov's indirect method is an attractive method for analyzing stability of non-linear systems since only the stability of the corresponding linearized system needs to be determined. Unfortunately, the proof for finite-dimensional systems…
An extensive statistical survey of universal approximators shows that as the dimension of a typical dissipative dynamical system is increased, the number of positive Lyapunov exponents increases monotonically and the number of parameter…
We define the empiric stochastic stability of an invariant measure in the finite-time scenario, the classical definition of stochastic stability. We prove that an invariant measure of a continuous system is empirically stochastically stable…
This report investigates the dynamical stability conjectures of Palis and Smale, and Pugh and Shub from the standpoint of numerical observation and lays the foundation for a stability conjecture. As the dimension of a dissipative dynamical…
Integrable non-linear Hamiltonian systems perturbed by additive noise develop a Lyapunov instability, and are hence chaotic, for any amplitude of the perturbation. This phenomenon is related, but distinct, from Taylor's diffusion in…
The stability analysis of a class of discontinuous discrete-time systems is studied in this paper. The system under study is modeled as a feedback interconnection of a linear system and a set-valued nonlinearity. An equivalent…
In this paper we provide sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of a system of invariant measures for semigroups associated to systems of parabolic differential equations with unbounded coefficients. We prove that these…
The phase space trajectories of many body systems charateristic of simple fluids are highly unstable. We quantify this instability by a set of Lyapunov exponents, which are the rates of exponential divergence, or convergence, of initial…
We analyse the so-called Marginal Instability of linear switching systems, both in continuous and discrete time. This is a phenomenon of unboundedness of trajectories when the Lyapunov exponent is zero. We disprove two recent conjectures of…
We study the asymptotic stability properties of nonlinear switched systems under the assumption of the existence of a common weak Lyapunov function. We consider the class of nonchaotic inputs, which generalize the different notions of…
We construct an invariant measure for a piecewise analytic interval map whose Lyapunov exponent is not defined. Moreover, for a set of full measure, the pointwise Lyapunov exponent is not defined. This map has a Lorenz-like singularity and…
We address the stability problem for linear switching systems with mode-dependent restrictions on the switching intervals. Their lengths can be bounded as from below (the guaranteed dwell-time) as from above. The upper bounds make this…
We show that a meaningful statistical description is possible in conservative and mixing systems with zero Lyapunov exponent in which the dynamical instability is only linear in time. More specifically, (i) the sensitivity to initial…
We provide Lyapunov-like characterizations of boundedness and convergence of non-trivial solutions for a class of systems with unstable invariant sets. Examples of systems to which the results may apply include interconnections of stable…
The sensitive dependence of chaos on parameters is a topic of great interest in the study of integrability and stability of dynamical systems. Previous work has proposed ways to identify the sensitive dependence on parameters by topological…
It follows from Oseledec Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem (or Kingmans Subadditional Ergodic Theorem) that the Lyapunov-irregular set of points for which the Oseledec averages of a given continuous cocycle diverge has zero measure with…
An upper bound on Lyapunov exponent of a thermal many body quantum system has been conjectured recently. In this work, we attempt to achieve a physical understanding of what prevents a system from violating this bound. To this end, we…
