Dynamics in delayed differential equations (DDEs) is a well studied problem mainly because DDEs arise in models in many areas of science including biology, physiology, population dynamics and engineering. The change of nature in the…
Rate Control Protocol (RCP) uses feedback from routers to assign flows their fair rate. RCP estimates the fair rate using two forms of feedback: rate mismatch and queue size. An outstanding design question for RCP is whether the queue size…

Nonsmooth formulations of physical models are common, particularly in climate modeling. However, in many of these models, there is little justification for this modeling choice, and no mathematical indication that the resulting behavior in…

A Hopf bifurcation is prevalent in many nonlinear dynamical systems. When a system prior to a Hopf bifurcation is exposed to a sufficient level of noise, its noise-induced dynamics can provide valuable information about the impending…
Distributed delays modeled by 'weak generic kernels' are introduced in the well-known coupled Landau-Stuart system, as well as a chaotic van der Pol-Rayleigh system with parametric forcing. The systems are close via the 'linear chain…
