We investigate classical and semiclassical aspects of codimension--two bifurcations of periodic orbits in Hamiltonian systems. A classification of these bifurcations in autonomous systems with two degrees of freedom or time-periodic systems…
We consider the evolution of the unstable periodic orbit structure of coupled chaotic systems. This involves the creation of a complicated set outside of the synchronization manifold (the emergent set). We quantitatively identify a critical…
As the name indicates, a periodic orbit is a solution for a dynamical system that repeats itself in time. In the regular regime, periodic orbits are stable, while in the chaotic regime, they become unstable. The presence of unstable…
In four-dimensional symplectic maps complex instability of periodic orbits is possible, which cannot occur in the two-dimensional case. We investigate the transition from stable to complex unstable dynamics of a fixed point under parameter…

We apply periodic orbit theory to study the asymptotic distribution of escape times from an intermittent map. The dynamical zeta function exhibits a branch point which is associated with an asymptotic power law escape. By an analytic…
We develop algorithms and techniques to compute rigorous bounds for finite pieces of orbits of the critical points, for intervals of parameter values, in the quadratic family of one-dimensional maps $f_a (x) = a - x^2$. We illustrate the…
The escape mechanism of orbits in a star cluster rotating around its parent galaxy in a circular orbit is investigated. A three degrees of freedom model is used for describing the dynamical properties of the Hamiltonian system. The…
A family of periodic orbits is proven to exist in the spatial lunar problem that are continuations of a family of consecutive collision orbits, perpendicular to the primary orbit plane. This family emanates from all but two energy values.…
Periodicity plays a significant role in the chaos theory from the beginning since the skeleton of chaos can consist of infinitely many unstable periodic motions. This is true for chaos in the sense of Devaney [1], Li-Yorke [2] and the one…
Three types of orbits are theoretically possible in autonomous Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom: fully chaotic (they only obey the energy integral), partially chaotic (they obey an additional isolating integral besides…
A complete analysis of classical periodic orbits (POs) and their bifurcations was conducted in spherical harmonic oscillator system with spin-orbit coupling. The motion of the spin is explicitly considered using the spin canonical variables…
Unstable periodic orbits (UPOs) are a valuable tool for studying chaotic dynamical systems, as they allow one to distill their dynamical structure. We consider here the Lorenz 1963 model with the classic parameters' value. We investigate…
Chaotic dynamics of low-dimensional systems, such as Lorenz or R\"ossler flows, is guided by the infinity of periodic orbits embedded in their strange attractors. Whether this also be the case for the infinite-dimensional dynamics of…
We investigate species-rich mathematical models of ecosystems. While much of the existing literature focuses on the properties of equilibrium fixed points, persistent dynamics (e.g., limit cycles or chaos) have also been observed, both in…
In this work, we try to shed some light to the nature of orbits in a three-dimensional potential of a perturbed harmonic oscillator with eight possible channels of escape, which was chosen as an interesting example of open three-dimensional…
Via evaluation of the Lyapunov exponent, we report the discovery of three prominent sets of phase space regimes of quasi-periodic orbits of charged particles trapped in a dipole magnetic field. Besides the low energy regime that has been…
We investigate the escape dynamics of the doubling map with a time-periodic hole. We use Ulam's method to calculate the escape rate as a function of the control parameters. We consider two cases, oscillating or breathing holes, where the…
While a wealth of results has been obtained for chaos in single-particle quantum systems, much less is known about chaos in quantum many-body systems. We contribute to recent efforts to make a semiclassical analysis of such systems…
The aim of this paper is to numerically investigate the orbital dynamics of the circular planar restricted problem of five bodies. By numerically integrating several large sets of initial conditions of orbits we classify them into three…
