In this article, we consider the dynamics in a neighborhood of a quasi-periodic torus which is invariant by a Hamiltonian flow, we discuss several notions of stability and we prove several results of instability when the frequency of the…

Chaotic transport is a subject of paramount importance in a variety of problems in plasma physics, specially those related to anomalous transport and turbulence. On the other hand, a great deal of information on chaotic transport can be…

Using a nonperturbative weak noise approach we investigate the interference of noise and chaos in simple 1D maps. We replace the noise-driven 1D map by an area-preserving 2D map modelling the Poincare sections of a conserved dynamical…

Turbulence follows a few well-known organizational principles, rooted in conservation laws. One such principle states that a system conserving two sign-definite invariants self-organizes into large-scale structures. Ordinary…

In this work we report a new route to chaos from a resonance torus in a piecewise smooth non-invertible map of the plane into itself. The closed invariant curve defining the resonance torus is formed by the union of unstable manifolds of…

Inspired by the work of Katznelson and Ornstein, we present a short way to achieve the almost optimal regularity in Moser's twist theorem. Specifically, for an integrable area-preserving twist map, the invariant circle with a given constant…

We investigate a class of area preserving non-uniformly hyperbolic maps of the two torus. First we establish some results on the regularity of the invariant foliations, then we use this knowledge to estimate the rate of mixing.

This paper establishes the ergodicity in $H^\nn,\nn=\lfloor\frac{d}{2}+1\rfloor$ of the viscous scalar conservation laws on torus $\mT^d$ with general polynomial flux and a degenerate noise. The noise could appear in as few as several…

We study smooth volume-preserving perturbations of the time-1 map of the geodesic flow $\psi_{t}$ of a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension at least three with constant negative curvature. We show that such a perturbation has equal…

The conventional approach to orbit trapping at Lindblad resonances via a pendulum equation fails when the parent of the trapped orbits is too circular. The problem is explained and resolved in the context of the Torus Mapper and a realistic…

We investigate the high dimensional Hamiltonian chaotic dynamics in $N$ coupled area-preserving maps. We show the existence of an enhanced trapping regime caused by trajectories performing a random walk {\em inside} the area corresponding…

Infinitesimal volumes stretch and contract as they coevolve with classical phase space trajectories according to linearized dynamics. Unless these tangent-space dynamics are modified, chaotic evolution causes the volume spanned by evolving…

The destruction of regular regions in two-dimensional, area-preserving maps is traditionally described in terms of the breakup of invariant curves and the persistence of transport barriers. Here, we investigate how this scenario changes…

We study the global boundedness of the solutions of a non-smooth forced oscillator with a periodic and real analytic forcing. We show that the impact map associated with this discontinuous equation becomes a real analytic and exact…

We show that the nontwist phenomena previously observed in Hamiltonian systems exist also in time-reversible non-Hamiltonian systems. In particular, we study the two standard collision/reconnection scenarios and we compute the parameter…

The identification of integrable dynamics remains a formidable challenge, and despite centuries of research, only a handful of examples are known to date. In this article, we explore a special form of area-preserving (symplectic) mappings…

We consider synchrony patterns in coupled phase oscillator networks that correspond to invariant tori. For specific nongeneric coupling, these tori are equilibria relative to a continuous symmetry action. We analyze how the invariant tori…
