Pesin's identity provides a profound connection between entropy $h_{KS}$ (statistical mechanics) and the Lyapunov exponent $\lambda$ (chaos theory). It is well known that many systems exhibit sub-exponential separation of nearby…
Weakly chaotic maps with unstable fixed points are investigated in the regime where the invariant density is non-normalizable. We propose that the infinite invariant density of these maps can be estimated using as the long time limit of…
We apply the maximum entropy principle to construct the natural invariant density and Lyapunov exponent of one-dimensional chaotic maps. Using a novel function reconstruction technique that is based on the solution of Hausdorff moment…
Chaotic dynamical systems are often characterised by a positive Lyapunov exponent, which signifies an exponential rate of separation of nearby trajectories. However, in a wide range of so-called weakly chaotic systems, the separation of…
We study the concentration phenomenon for discrete-time random dynamical systems with an unbounded state space. We develop a heuristic approach towards obtaining exponential concentration inequalities for dynamical systems using an entirely…
In search for mathematically tractable models of anomalous diffusion, we introduce a simple dynamical system consisting of a chain of coupled maps of the interval whose Lyapunov exponents vanish everywhere. The volume preserving property…
Let $\beta >1$ be a non-integer. We consider expansions of the form $\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} d_i \beta^{-i}$, where the digits $(d_i)_{i \geq 1}$ are generated by means of a Borel map $K_{\beta}$ defined on $\{0,1\}^{\N}\times [ 0, \lfloor…
We study integrability breaking and transport in a discrete space-time lattice with a local integrability breaking perturbation. We find a singular distribution of the Lyapunov spectrum where the majority of Lyapunov exponents vanish in the…
We consider a general class of maps of the interval having Lyapunov subexponential instability $|\delta x_{t}|\sim|\delta x_{0}|\exp[\Lambda_{t}(x_{0})\zeta(t)]$, where $\zeta(t)$ grows sublinearly as $t\rightarrow\infty$. We outline here a…
We compute the diffusion coefficient and the Lyapunov exponent for a diffusive intermittent map by means of cycle expansion of dynamical zeta functions. The asymptotic power law decay of the coefficients of the relevant power series are…
The sensitivity of trajectories over finite time intervals t to perturbations of the initial conditions can be associated with a finite-time Lyapunov exponent lambda, obtained from the elements M_{ij} of the stability matrix M. For globally…
We generalize the concept of convective (or velocity-dependent) Lyapunov exponent $\Lambda(v)$ to an entire spectrum $\Lambda(v,n)$. Our results are supported by the consistency between the outcome of the chronotopic approach [{\it S. Lepri…
We study Lyapunov exponents of tracers in compressible homogeneous isotropic turbulence at different turbulent Mach number $M_t$ and Taylor-scale Reynolds number $Re_\lambda$. We demonstrate that statistics of finite-time Lyapunov exponents…
We investigate ergodic-theoretical quantities and large deviation properties of one-dimensional intermittent maps, that have not only an indifferent fixed point but also a singular structure such that the uniform measure is invariant under…
We consider a family of Pomeau-Manneville type interval maps $T_\alpha$, parametrized by $\alpha \in (0,1)$, with the unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measures $\nu_\alpha$, and rate of correlations decay $n^{1-1/\alpha}$.…
We conjecture that in one-dimensional spatially extended systems the propagation velocity of correlations coincides with a zero of the convective Lyapunov spectrum. This conjecture is successfully tested in three different contexts: (i) a…
We consider compact invariant sets \Lambda for C^{1} maps in arbitrary dimension. We prove that if \Lambda contains no critical points then there exists an invariant probability measure with a Lyapunov exponent \lambda which is the minimum…
We consider the period-doubling and intermittency transitions in iterated nonlinear one-dimensional maps to corroborate unambiguously the validity of Tsallis' non-extensive statistics at these critical points. We study the map…
We calculate the maximum Lyapunov exponent of the motion in the separatrix map's chaotic layer, along with calculation of its width, as functions of the adiabaticity parameter $\lambda$. The separatrix map is set in natural variables; and…
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…
