We show the existence and uniqueness of the maximal entropy probability measure for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are semi-conjugate to nonuniformly expanding maps. Using the theory of projective metric on cones we then prove…
This paper summarises an investigation of the statistical properties of orbits escaping from three different two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian systems which exhibit global stochasticity. Each H=H_{0}+eH', with H_{0} integrable and eH' a…
We deal with the orbit determination problem for hyperbolic maps. The problem consists in determining the initial conditions of an orbit and, eventually, other parameters of the model from some observations. We study the behaviour of the…
Anomalous kinetics of infective (e.g., autocatalytic) reactions in open, nonhyperbolic chaotic flows are important for many applications in biological, chemical, and environmental sciences. We present a scaling theory for the singular…
Kramers escape rate in the overdamped systems with the power-law distribution is studied. By using the mean first passage time, we derive the escape rate for the power-law distribution and obtain the Kramers' infinite barrier escape rate in…
Given a one-dimensional dynamical system we study its cover time, which quantifies the rate at which orbits become dense in the state space. Using transfer operator tools for dynamical systems with holes and inducing techniques, for a wide…
We study the mean escape time in a market model with stochastic volatility. The process followed by the volatility is the Cox Ingersoll and Ross process which is widely used to model stock price fluctuations. The market model can be…
We establish the existence of Young structures for a broad class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with a splitting $TM = E^{cs} \oplus E^{uu}$, under exactly the same conditions that ensure the existence of SRB measures in a previous…
The Davydov D1 ansatz, which assigns an individual bosonic trajectory to each spin state, is an efficient, yet extremely accurate trial state for time-dependent variation of the sub-Ohmic spin-boson model [J. Chem. Phys. 138, 084111…
Superhydrophobicity is connected to the presence of gas pockets within surface asperities. Upon increasing the pressure this "suspended" state may collapse, causing the complete wetting of the rough surface. In order to quantitatively…
This paper deals with the derivation and analysis of a seventh-order generalization of the H\'enon-Heiles potential. The new potential has axial and reflection symmetries, and finite escape energy with three channels of escape. Based on…
The effect of noise is studied in one-dimensional maps undergoing transcritical, tangent, and pitchfork bifurcations. The attractors of the noiseless map become metastable states in the presence of noise. In the weak-noise limit, a…
We introduce a class of short-rate models that exhibit a ``higher for longer'' phenomenon. Specifically, the short-rate is modeled as a general time-homogeneous one-factor Markov diffusion on a finite interval. The lower endpoint is assumed…
In this paper we study the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on negatively curved geometrically finite manifolds. We prove that the measure theoretic entropy is upper semicontinuous when there is no loss of mass. In case we are losing…
We prove the asymptotic functional Poisson laws in the total variation norm and obtain estimates of the corresponding convergence rates for a large class of hyperbolic dynamical systems. These results generalize the ones obtained before in…
We prove a sharp large deviation principle concerning intervals shrinking with sub-exponential speed for certain models involving the Poincar\'e map related to a Markov family for an Axiom A flow restricted to a basic set $\Lambda$…
We address stability of a class of Markovian discrete-time stochastic hybrid systems. This class of systems is characterized by the state-space of the system being partitioned into a safe or target set and its exterior, and the dynamics of…
We study a totally asymmetric simple exclusion process where jumps happen at rate one, except at the origin where the rate is lower. We prove a hydrodynamic scaling limit to a macroscopic profile described by a variational formula. The…
In summer 1997 we were sitting with Bob Dorfman and a few other friends interested in chaotic systems and transport theory on a terrace close to Oktogon in Budapest. While taking our (decaf) coffee after a very nice Italian meal, we…
We study intermittent maps from the point of view of metastability. Small neighbourhoods of an intermittent fixed point and their complements form pairs of almost-invariant sets. Treating the small neighbourhood as a hole, we first show…
